About Our Guest: Joel Pollick, CEO of Percent PledgeJoel Pollick, Founder & CEO of Percent Pledge, grew up in philanthropy with his father, Marc Pollick, founding The Giving Back Fund in 1997. With this in mind, and his experience in sales, B2B SaaS, and strategy, Joel founded Percent Pledge as a B2C company providing a better and easier way to give back to any and several nonprofits with a ‘subscription for giving.’ After a year, thoughtful strategy, user tests, and much more, Percent Pledge pivoted as a B2B company, becoming the first solution to create social impact programs that are customizable and affordable for businesses of any size.Guest Website: https://www.percentpledge.org 00:00 Introduction 02:13 Joel Pennick’s Motivation 05:15 From Idea to Not-For-Profit 08:00 Serving Consumers & Employees First 09:48 Making Giving A Habit 11:30 Bootstrapping / Building A Do-Good Business 13:30 The Connection Between Giving + Happiness 19:00 Building A “Mutual Fund for Giving” 27:27 Pledge Reports / Impact Reports = Retained Engagement 32:40 Vetting Partner Not-For-Profits 36:30 Running a Virtual Company (Pre + Post COVID) 41:00 Next Goal Posts, Simon Sinek & More 44:44 Personal Inspiration 47:00 Takeaways - Options For Giving Programs, Employee Retention & MoreJOIN OUR CIRCLE.
