The Campaign FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions:
I love the idea. I love technology, but is this possible?
Yep, sure is! We've spoken to numerous software engineers who specialize in artificial intelligence, data science, and machine learning who all agree this is possible. The goal is to crawl the web and display the best option for the user. While it's lofty, we are very confident we can execute, with your help.
If I help fund, can I use the platform for free?
Absolutely! We will allow completely free use for 3 months. We would be honored to not only have you as a 'user of honor,' we would also love to invite you to test the beta once it's launched. After you fund us, just email [email protected] with your name and email address and we will be in contact with more details. THANK YOU! ❤️
Who is running the joint?!
That would be our founder and CEO, Adrienne Berry. She is a credentialed HR executive whose worked in the Silicon Valley's tech scene for several years. She is seasoned as a human resources professional who has supported senior leaders (CXO) in their most difficult organizational challenges and worked to make teams and employees stronger and more efficient. She is also a black woman who set out to level the playing field for her community in the workplace.
What makes your solution better or different?
Great question! We are entirely different because we are predictive and we give customized career paths for individuals. Normally what you'll find are solutions similar to Workfluence, but they are for businesses supporting their internal employees. We also have a super special function that supports continuity of growth for as an individual AND employee because we know your best experience happens in life and on the job, and we want to make sure that never gets lost. We also plan on having brand partnerships so you aren't just given a path and strategy with little help on execution, we want to account for the full experience.
I took a look at the website and I wasn't impressed, what's going on?
We know...
That's our first area we plan to tackle once we've fundraised enough. We have our MVP actively being developed with a go-live date of January 28, 2021. Even then we know we will constantly have product updates and upgrades for years to come. You are funding the future work of the Workfluence as we grow into an incredible platform.
I have more questions, and I'm interested in connecting with the founder, Adrienne.
