Deep Dive
Let me tell you about the most counterintuitive financing company you've never heard of. . .
The Gap Everyone Ignored
Holistic healthcare practitioners—psychedelic therapy, integrative medicine, wellness clinics—needed growth capital, but traditional financing either didn't understand their market or demanded equity they couldn't afford.
Meanwhile, there was $5MM+ in unmet financing demand just sitting there.
What gives? The financial infrastructure for this industry simply didn't exist.
The Community-First Revenue Architecture
Instead of building another B2B SaaS platform, I started with the community.
The Insight: 500+ healthcare practitioners were already connected but operating in isolation. What if we could turn that network into systematic deal flow?
So we built a community-driven revenue cycle management platform. Not just a financing company—a system that converted peer relationships into qualified demand.
How it worked: Practitioners would refer other practitioners. But instead of hoping referrals happened organically, we systematized it. Peer-to-peer mentorship that naturally surfaced financing needs.
The lesson? Sometimes the fastest way to build a B2B company is to start with the community that already exists.
