Project Description

Arxegoz, Inc. is investing in people. We are changing the way startups and entrepreneurs receive the guidance they need to go from business idea and concept, to full fledged profiting company.

The Problem

We are in an age where startup and entrepreneurship is growing at a faster rate than any other time in history. Yet too many small businesses go without the full compass of resources they need to successfully launch their company. About 65% of all startups fail by year two—and this is largely due to the average small business owner not knowing the full entails of running a business from the start.

 

 

Our Goal : The Solution

This is where Arxegoz, Inc. comes in. We help members in our community take their idea, craft, talent or passion and turn it into a business that they’ve dreamed of. With our investors and experts in business, finance, operations and marketing, we give small businesses the fighting chance they need to be part of that 35% who successfully launch their startup.

How are we different from consulting firms and the non-profits that do just the same? Arxegoz, Inc. walks hand in hand with the companies we help grow, and we do so without putting the business owner in financial distress or overwhelming task lists.

Consulting firms help small businesses grow, but can ask for thousands of dollars before their contract starts. This puts the average entrepreneur at a loss from the get go. Business oriented non-profits are extremely helpful and advise well, but leave small business owners the responsibility of carrying out each action item to make their dreams a reality. Arxegoz, Inc., on the other hand, treats each new start up as a full fledged business, providing assistance in each department of business from operations to marketing, finances to product creation and so on. We allow small business owners to hone in on their craft while we teach business operations within stride. Our goal is to allow owners to perfect their product or service and give them the tools to be self sustaining as they grow. Arxegoz, Inc. is in the journey as a party, as their success is our success. 

How You Can Help

Being part of iFund Women campaign is important to Arxegoz, Inc. because we strive to build community businesses that empower women, minority, Veteran and LBGTQ owners, the vast majority of businesses that need the extra hand in being successful and profitable by year two of their business launch. With half of our team female and half of our vested businesses also founded by women, we know this is the right platform to help our dreams become reality.

Your contribution through this campaign will help us ensure that the startups we work with in 2019 are able to receive the proper resources they need in their first year so that they may be profitable by year two.

Meet the Start Ups

Get to know some of the business we are currently helping to grow:

  • ARXEGOZ BEAUTY – With minority female owners who love beauty and exceptional customer care and education, Arxegoz Beauty, with the help of Arxegoz, inc., has become the innovative beauty studio of South Seattle. It is one of the up and coming Beauty Academies of the PNW, giving artists a future through income, insurance, retirement and studio ownership--the one thing that sets it apart from others in the industry. By the end of 2018, we expect to make 65% in growth and have 10% branding ownership of its community.
  • ARXEGOZ EATS – Arxegoz Eats is the recipe of a former US Marine. Chef Rommel Viray has always had a passion to create dishes that wowed guests with nutritional and balanced meals, and also embrace cultural palates. Arxegoz, Inc. helped make his dream become reality in 2017, launching Arxegoz Eats as a premier gourmet meal delivery and catering service in the Great Seattle Area.
  • LA VISTA SALSA – Taking the views of the Puget Sound in mind, Arxegoz, Inc. will be helping La Vista Salsa owner Anthony Macias bring his homemade salsa recipes to the masses. This is salsa like you’ve never had before, with an authentic touch of flavor that reminds everyone of their Abuela and indigenous upbringings.
  • SEED BAR & EATS – The true definition of family business, Arxegoz, Inc. is helping make one family’s dream become reality through SEED Bar & Eats, which will create the ultimate experience of co-working and community surrounded by food for one town’s growing population. SEED Bar & Eats will be a dining experience like no other for that starts in Tehaleh, Washington community.

 

 

Our team truly appreciates any contributions or gifts that help us build the dreams for others.

We believe in the power of people. Motivation. Positive vibes. Emotional Intelligence. And most importantly, Appreciation. Thank you for learning more about us, and thank you for believing in us.

The Campaign FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions:

  • Who are we? Having all been entrepreneurs themselves and/or growing up around them, each investor understood the hardship that comes when building, and sustaining, a business.  Looking around us, we see giants such as Amazon, Boeing and Microsoft continue to grow in our communities; swallowing up any opportunities for the “young ones”.  Using the TV show ‘Shark Tank’ for inspiration, however scaling it down to focus on business ownership resources, Arxegoz teams up with a startup and helps them build a strong platform through business consulting, financial advisory, marketing support and guidance for manufacturing options so the main business owner can focus on their talent/craft.  Arxegoz is a derivative of the Greek word ‘Archegos’ meaning: to lead; to believe; an author of their own belief; to build
  • Who are our clients?  Our clients are any small businesses that yearn to grow and tire of losing to the major corporations.  Arxegoz, Inc. ultimately selects and approves which businesses they will help to evolve and thrive.
  • Sales? Marketing? We have a strong focus on our smaller businesses so we utilize a marketing vendor who has over 30 years’ experience to ensure they flourish.  To get our name out in the community, we have created websites; flood social media with various content; door to door; several creative writing pieces which are entered into magazines or articles within community papers; flyers.
  • How long have we been around? Arxegoz, Inc. officially started January, 2017.  It was extremely important that we created a solid business plan in place before we took a major risk.  Having devising processes and a system worth following by drafting a blueprint of our startup, it gave us a strong start for the first two businesses, Arxegoz Eats and Arxegoz Beauty, which launched July 2017 and November 2017, respectively.  We feel by using the Arxegoz name for the first two investments will show credibility for other startups, however, the Arxegoz name will be restricted to those two, unless mutually agreed upon.
  • Competitive Advantage?  Being a startup ourselves, the struggles are not unknown to us.  Tara, our COO, has an impeccable business background and understands the need to acquire an outstanding marketing team that supports our business entrepreneurs, which we have done.  By already securing a strong relationship with our manufacturing contacts, we created a wholesale environment for our small business – saving them a lot of money and building a phenomenal revenue stream for the future.  We have yet to discover anyone willing to help other businesses succeed by implementing HR procedures, providing marketing or financial advice, or other components that may be needed but are hard to attain for the common small business startup owner.
  • What makes us different than Shark Tank? Unlike Shark Tank. We do not have the generous funding and instant network. We do have a similar passion. Build on people’s dream. We invest through our own work effort, put our time and energy and limited funding resource to help other business as a shareholder. We succeed together. Like Shark Tank, we’re selective on our selection. We do our research on the business, and then seek them out. We meet with the individual several times to make sure we all do have the same vision. We hold a focus group to gather opinions of the market of this particular business. We spend a lot of time together in learning of our strengths and weakness. We find out if we can help, and do they need our help. We set the goal and mission together so communication is strong from day one. We set up legal contracts, and financial planning to be able to move to our first official planning meeting.
  • Why Us? BECAUSE WE CARE. WE WON'T SUCCEED IF THEY DON'T SUCCEED.
