This was honestly one of the best moments on this episode.
On the pod, @letstalkops gets a shoutout from the legendary, Rachel, who leads Operations and Platform at @footworkvc - a VC fund I deeply admire for their comprehensive support system for founders.
This was an action-packed episode on the @hirecmo podcast. Loved every second.

Loved this one tbh.
On the @hirecmo pod:
My guest, Richard is an Operating Partner at the VC fund, Gutter Capital.
And his portfolio founders love the help they consistently get from Richard and his team on sourcing Talent for their startups — and this is Gutter’s core post-investment service offering. Also called “VC Platform”.
Naturally, I had to ask Richard how he thinks VC funds should budget for their post-investment offerings given that funds can either choose to focus on one offering (like Talent) or be a jack of all trades.

we’ve interviewed 12 VC funds with under $50M AUM and under 25 portfolio startups and here’s our takeaway
When VC portfolio founders are actively supported to hit their growth milestones, it becomes a win-win for everyone —
The founders, the LPs and the GP.
The question that newer funds tend to ask though is the “what” and the “how”:
- what kind of support do my founders need?
- how do I provide the best version of that support at the precise moment it’s needed?
I’ve started interviewing Platform Leads at VC funds on the @hirecmo podcast. And it’s fairly interesting learning how funds are thinking about this.
My number one finding so far is that 80% of funds with < 20 portfolio startups all offer the same kind of support to their founders: fundraising support, introductions to vendors, investors and industry experts, founder coaching and talent.
The other 20% will pick one of the above and execute it extremely well.
Because these funds have lean teams, they need to either choose between being a jack of all trades or be extremely good at one.
Take a look at the @hirecmo pod when you have a chance. It’ll become the go-to place for VC funds to learn how they can genuinely support their founders to consistently improve — both as people and as operators.

We just love talking VC platform lol
Interestingly, after another 50 pod episodes with Platform Leads at VC funds, I’m confident I’ll be able to help build out platform functions from scratch for emerging managers.
Starting the @hirecmo pod must be one of the best decisions of my 20s.
