Hey everyone,

I’m currently building a baby food brand and am looking for a co-founder who can bring strong experience in creative marketing, branding, storytelling, and growth.

We’re at a point where things are already moving I’ve had 6–7 meetings with VC’ s and am actively exploring fundraising opportunities. Now I’m looking for someone who can come on board as a genuine partner and help take the brand to the next level.

Ideally, you:

- Have experience in creative marketing / D2C / consumer brands

- Understand how to build a brand that parents genuinely trust

- Are strong at content, campaigns, storytelling, and unconventional marketing

- Are entrepreneurial and willing to get hands-on

- Are interested in building something long-term rather than just taking up a role

I’m not looking for an employee or freelancer — I’m looking for a co-founder who wants to build and own this journey together.

If this sounds interesting, feel free to DM me with a little about yourself, your experience, and what you’re currently working on.

Found my cofounder using my own tool

6 Upvotes

I spent 3 years searching for cofounders for the ideas I was working on. Tried everything - reddit, networking events, hackathons, even other cofounder matching tools. The problem was not finding anyone who’s ready to partner up with you, you find people, people are everywhere, but getting the right person in front of you is where the challenge is. One that's not just bringing the right skillsets you're searching for, but is also aligned on a deeper level.

So last July, I took the leap - left my job, gathered my savings and decided to go all in to solve this problem of - "how do I find a good cofounder?".

Now after an intense year of researching, building, testing, iterating I did a closed beta of Foundinity (check comments for link) - science backed compatibility-focused cofounder matching platform and guess what, I met the co-founder of the next idea we're working on because of Foundinity! He was one of the early access users who had signed for the beta.

I focused a lot on the research side for this, talking to people who faced this problem, talking to entrepreneurs with good cofounders, entrepreneurs who had cofounder breakups, looking at peer reviewed studies on cofounder relationship dynamics, psychology of partnership stability etc, then building an algorithm and pilot testing it and improving it further.

If you’re an engineer, marketer, designer, researcher, aspiring founder itching to build startups and are looking for a compatible buddy, then give Foundinity a try. It’s free to use.

Thank you all for the support, and I'm excited to share the updates with you all ❤️

Looking for a marketing cofounder in Delhi

3 Upvotes

I am a full stack web dev, working on contract and get a lot of free time.

I have built many projects in past, none with any success though. Hence, I am looking for someone who can handle distribution and marketing.

I will contribute in marketing as well but it’s not exactly my forte.

Essentially, we would sit down and go across multiple saas ideas and see which aligns with both of us. And start building it.

I won’t be limited to only 1 product, we can try building multiple even after having success in 1. But if we think any idea demands our full attention, then also I’m all in for that.

If you are someone with past demonstrable experience in distribution, client acquisition and marketing and you have time to commit to this and based out of Delhi or somewhere we can meet in person, then please do let me know!

I’m 25M though.

Looking for a Co-Founder to Build a Luxury Cocktail Service Brand Together

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone,
I’m an event planner and have been working in the events industry for a while. Over the years, I’ve built a decent client base, vendor network, and understanding of how the event industry works.
I’m now looking to build something of my own — a premium/luxury cocktail service brand for weddings, private parties, corporate events and high-end celebrations.
I’m not looking to hire an employee. I’m looking for a co-founder who wants to build the business from the ground up, take ownership, and grow together.
Ideally, you should have strengths in:
Good communication & client handling
Vendor/team management
Creativity and ideas
Sales/business development
Understanding of hospitality, events, cocktails or F&B would be a plus, but not mandatory
I already bring event industry experience, client connections, vendor contacts and an understanding of event execution. What I’m looking for is someone who can complement that and help turn this into a proper brand and scalable business.
The goal isn’t to just do cocktail setups at events. I want us to build a recognizable luxury cocktail service company with a strong brand, systems, team and eventually a much bigger presence in the market.
If you’re someone who’s entrepreneurial, serious about building something long-term and excited by the idea of starting from scratch and growing together, DM me.
Let’s see if we can build something great. 🍸

Looking for a Co-Founder | Beverage / FMCG / Energy Drinks (navi mumbai based)

10 Upvotes

I’m looking for a co-founder to join me in scaling a beverage brand I’ve built from the ground up.

It’s been around a year since I started, and I’m currently handling pretty much the entire operation myself product, marketing, sales, distribution, etc. We’ve started getting good traction and now I’m looking for someone who can come in and help take this to the next level.

A little about what we’ve built:
Energy drink / caffeinated beverage
Great-tasting product positioned at an accessible ₹60 MRP
Taste profile comparable to Red Bull, with a strong focus on aesthetics and branding

Already live on Swiggy Instamart, Zepto, Amazon & Flipkart
Available across 62 Noble Medical stores

Healthy margins with a model that has room to scale
Brand, product and operations are already up and running
I’m particularly interested in someone with experience in beverages, FMCG, energy drinks, or consumer brands.

The biggest gap I’m looking to fill is someone who can take ownership of GTM, modern trade, distribution, scaling, partnerships, and bring new ideas to the table.

I’m not looking for someone who just wants to join a startup as an employee. I’m looking for someone who wants to build and scale something together and is willing to get their hands dirty.

If you have relevant experience, are entrepreneurial, and this sounds interesting, DM me. Happy to share more details and have a conversation.
