What you likely need
You're operating Fulmer Media as a hybrid media studio plus angel checkbook, with deep creator-economy fluency from scaling The Try Guys to 8M+ subscribers. Your highest leverage right now is converting that creator-platform expertise into a defensible thesis — either a small fund or syndicate — rather than spreading across one-off media deals and brand consulting. Lean into category authority where you have a real edge competitors don't.
Are these your current priorities?
We will tune and customize your Founder Festival experience to make sure you get invited to the events that would be most valuable to you.
- positioningFormalize your angel activity into an AngelList syndicate or rolling fund focused on creator-economy and culture/commerce startups where your distribution edge is real.
- positioningPublish a public investment thesis memo on creator-led commerce — it will pull qualified deal flow and clarify your positioning vs. generalist consumer VCs.
- introsGet warm intros to Creator Ventures, Animal Capital, and Mantis (Chainsmokers) — operators with the exact same angle who could co-invest or LP.
- tacticalProductize the BuzzFeed IP-buyback playbook into an advisory offering for other creators trying to repatriate IP from platforms.
- hiringIf you go the fund route, hire a part-time platform/ops lead before partner #2 — investing operations are where solo GPs leak the most time.
- fundraisingConsider raising a small production-slate fund from strategics (streamers, brands you already consult for) to de-risk Fulmer Media's IP bets.
