Effective Entrepreneur Support with CofounderOS modules: from Make Startups Institute

Introduction to Ecosystem Support

This module covers a general overview of CofounderOS for Entrepreneur Support Organizations (ESOs) and walks you through several common use-cases for this platform. This is a good starting point for any new ESO or team member using CofounderOS for the first time.

Configuring CofounderOS for ESOs

This module covers the basic configuration of CofounderOS to help your organization get up and running quickly.

Setting up Effective Application Funnels

In this module, we'll describe how to use the primary application form along with using the Pitch Contest application to create additional application forms to effectively segment your inbound applications and keep your ecosystem startup funnel filled with qualified candidates.

Effective Sales Leadership and Tracking

This module covers all the different tools and configuration options to make it easy to keep an eye on your application funnels. We'll cover setting up dynamic dashboards with charts and tracking widgets and discuss using the Shared Company Dashboard to create a unified "Sales Funnel View" to keep tabs on all these moving pieces.

Managing Pitch Contests

Pitch Contests are an effective way to reach new startups, and to engage investors and supporters in your community. While the previous module showed how to setup up application funnels, this module will help you take all the manual workload out of running a pitch contest, provide founders with automated in-depth feedback to help their business, and increase stakeholder engagement.

Using Cohort Forums for Collaboration

In this module, we'll show off how you can use the Cohort Forum system to unify your ecosystem support and training efforts and collaborate with your startup founders inside CofounderOS.
