Founder in United States, building LinkedIn.

Pinned · the post that put Katelyn on the map · Jul 30, 2026

I miiiiiight regret doing this—RIP my inbox—but if it works, it will be life-changing. Today, I'm writing a dating profile... Not that kind. (Happily married.) I'm looking for… a co-founder. Solopreneurship is lonely. I’ve watched as brilliant duos built big things together while I slogged solo. I’m inspired by teams like Leila and Alex, Dickie and Cole, Robert and Anthony, and Erica and Nick. (The fact that you probably know who at least half these folks are without me tagging them proves my point.) Over the years I’ve tested a few collabs and had great conversations with smart folks, but I haven’t found my perfect match yet. So I figured I’d just put my cards on the table and see what the heck happens. Here’s my “about me” snapshot (full profile linked below)... → Experience: I’m a serial entrepreneur with experience building creative agencies (one exit), VC-backed tech startup (took a big L on that one), and most recently building a media & education company → Revenue: My businesses generated over $2.7M in the last three years as a solopreneur (with badass contractors and collab products) → Receipts: I've taught 1,900 students how to become unignorable, and watched many become dominant voices in their niches → Audience: I have 250,000 followers across channels and 60,000 newsletter subscribers After spending 6 months building v2 of UNIGNORABLE, I’m planning a shift that is—fittingly—unignorable. What I'm envisioning is muuuuch bigger than what I can build alone. I know exactly what I'm great at: strategy, messaging, GTM, product vision, and educational experience design. What I need is a partner who can stand next to me in the work (not manage it from a distance). ❌ I'm not looking for an employee ❌ I'm not looking for a fractional commitment (been there—everyone was stretched too thin, and that only leads to problems) ❌ I'm not looking for a pure operator who doesn’t have deep chops in content creation and/or personal branding I'm looking for someone who sees themselves as a marketer first, operator second. Someone who: ✅ Creates exceptional content—for their own brand, or for clients whose brands they've built ✅ Loves to lead: managed people, either their own biz or a team in-house ✅ Is all-in on AI and loves building with it—dashboards, app, agents ✅ Has already built impressive things (this isn't a learning opportunity—it's a partnership between two experts) ✅ Is at a stage of life where they can go hard I know this combination is rare. But it absolutely exists. The full "dating profile" is in the doc below: what I bring to the table, what I'm looking for, and the red flags that mean we shouldn't waste each other's time. One more thing: don't DM me "I'm interested." If you're serious, check out the requirements in the doc on how to take the next step. Dating profile: https://t.co/tE5MTioozb
