Helping Businesses Launch Their Podcast and Build Strong Communities
As an entrepreneur, I know firsthand how challenging it can be to start and run a business. At times, I have felt isolated and unsure of where to turn for help. However, since I joined 1st Generation Entrepreneurs, I have found a supportive community of individuals who are going through the same struggles as me.
What makes 1st Gen stand out from other networking platforms like LinkedIn is the level of genuine connection and vulnerability that exists between members. In this community, I am able to openly share my successes and failures, and I receive valuable feedback and support from people who truly understand what it’s like to be an entrepreneur.
I believe that what sets 1st Gen apart is that it was created by 1st Gens, for 1st Gens. This community is designed with all the challenges of being a 1st Gen in mind and offers a wealth of valuable resources to support its members.
Overall, I highly recommend this membership to any 1st Gen Entrepreneur looking for a supportive community to help them navigate the ups and downs of the entrepreneurial journey.

I can easily say that my annual membership in the 1st Gen Entrepreneurs community has already paid for itself, Andrew & within the first month alone!
The consistent level of support, engagement, and camaraderie and not to mention the new business and partnering opportunities and has been phenomenal.
Thanks for creating such a welcoming and helpful space for accidental entrepreneurs like me to grow into their business and best position themselves within their industry!

I am not who I project myself to be. What you see is not always what you get. Behind the scenes, I’m a doubter, a worrier, and if I’m not careful — pessimism slips right in, deeply. So what the heck does this have to do with gratefulness?
Just this: certain people come alongside at just the right time. Yesterday I needed some advice. And you know what? Andrew McIntosh was right there when I needed him. Crazy helpful. Insightful.
He gave me an hour that was truly needed. I came away with a whole bunch of insights that… if I’m just being honest… are stolen ideas from his brain. And he freely gave them.
This is the way. So thank you Andrew! Today as day #1 I’m grateful to have you as a friend in my corner.
And by the way, what Andrew is doing at 1st Gen Entrepreneurs is insanely cool.
Go take a peek, you’ll love it.

What Andrew has created with 1st Gen and amazing! My mind was blown when I saw 1st Gen! He has set up such an incredible community and platform to help entrepreneurs have a place to go for support, community, questions, and friendships! It can be lonely running a business and hard to find the support you need, Andrew solved that problem and has created a place that in my opinion every entrepreneur should be part of! Thank you so much Andrew for all you do!

The hot seat made me feel like I wasn’t alone. So many others seemed to feel and have gone through or are going through what I am and it was comforting to hear from others who know exactly what I am talking about. There was so much support and helpful insight that I came away feeling energized and not crazy.
Not only was I able to get perspective, I was able to get more clarity and actually, open my mind to options I might not have thought about. I came away with list full of actionable ideas and suggestions.
One thing I would like to say is how much I appreciate the vetting process. I trust that those who are part of the community are safe and that is a big deal for me as I assume it is for others. We all are sharing vulnerable aspects and information about ourselves that we might not normally share with just anyone.

I’m pumped to be a founding member of 1st Gen Entrepreneurs – and to have a hand in building something really special for this slice of the entrepreneurial community.
As a first-time, first generation founder – this group of peers and mentors has quickly become my compass and my anchor.
Thank you Andrew McIntosh for inviting me and many other 1st Gens to collaborate on your vision and co-create this space together.
I’m going to speak for everyone and say it means the world to us!
We’re already making friends and business partners for life in this community – and we’re just 2 months in. Thrilled to be along for the ride as we grow 🚀

The Hot Seat was just what I needed. It was perfect for a busy entrepreneur like me. Structured time to talk and listen, with a little wiggle room if necessary, kept the format tight and the value exchange on point.
I only had to present my challenge once to receive multiple viewpoints, some of which compounded on each other.
The nature of the community meant that the people who showed up to help came with honest, candid feedback that was the most helpful thing for me to hear.
I recommend anyone interested in getting out of their heads and hearing some solid advice to join this community!

I joined 1st Gen ~2 months ago. I wouldn’t normally put much stock in an entrepreneur’s community. They’re tough to vet without being inside (and paying for the privilege).
However, I joined 1st Gen at the recommendation of three separate connections so I knew it was the real deal and I pulled the trigger.
It didn’t disappoint!
I’ve made many new valuable connections inside the community, learned a considerable amount, and had my thinking challenged in a positive way.
If you’re on the fence, consider this your nudge.

The 1st Gen community has been a tremendous resource as I continue the process of connecting with ideal clients, structuring my offerings, and developing my knowledge and confidence to build a sustainable business.
Being brand new to entrepreneurship, I had no idea where to go for help. There are so many options and it takes so much time to vet those options. So, I basically ended up doing everything myself. I wish I would have had this resource sooner in my journey.
And with this group, the benefits are not just in what you get. They are also in what you give. The community gatherings have been a fantastic place to collaborate with really smart, like-minded people. Contributing to discussions has hopefully helped others, while also helping me clarify my thoughts.
I would recommend this group to anyone who is an entrepreneur or considering becoming one. Whether you’re looking to accelerate your growth or just establish a foundation, you will find the support you need here.

Excited to be a part of this. It’s something that as a one-man shop in a business, it’s nice to have other folks who bring ideas, who can challenge you, and who can ensure your success when other times you may just feel on an island and all alone.

I recently spoke with Andrew on the challenges I was facing with my business.
I sought after Andrew’s advice on the business model direction I was exploring.
Andrew was able to provide a fresh perspective on what I was considering, which led to a significant change in direction I was exploring.
I feel more empowered with the decision I made, and I’m more confident of the larger impact it will have on my business.
Thanks Andrew!
