#asks-offers-advice

Hi everyone I'm looking for some advice and guidance!

I’ve been running Lime Social Club for the past two years. It’s a community-driven events company focused on helping people connect through wellness, creativity, and movement (without the pressure of the bar scene).

We just went through a big structural shift behind the scenes, and I’m in the process of finalizing a new deck and website. This next phase feels like a chance to really set things up for long-term success

For the first time (in my life/ career/ ever), I’m exploring what strategic partnerships or outside capital could look like. I’m not sure LSC is the right fit for a traditional investment path, but I’d love to explore:

• Partnerships with marketing/brand agencies who align with what we’re building
• Creative ways to bring in capital or support (especially from folks who value community and slow growth)
I’ve never done anything like this before — if you’ve raised capital, pitched partnerships, or have ideas on where to start, I’d be so grateful for any thoughts, resources, or intros. Truly open to learning and hearing what’s worked for others.
Thanks in advance
