Being an advisor and on boards is a springboard to the most elite of professional opportunities. But for decades it’s been dictated by a small group of executive search firms and public companies.

Over the last 12 years AdvisoryCloud has been on a mission to open this world to a larger audience - by making it incredibly simple for businesses of all sizes to create an advisory board, and by enabling a much wider group of professionals to develop their unique area of expertise as a board member, join boards, and grow their professional brand as an advisor.

Our platform enables both sides to connect in a far more efficient way, and serves as a springboard for a business to get new insights and connections to reach new heights, and for professionals to build their brand as an advisor and be exposed to a world of new opportunities.

Yes. Everyone is qualified to be on boards if you drill down far enough into your areas of expertise.

If you’re early in your career, if you take your interests or profession, your unique skills, and your age demographic and/or geographic location, you are certainly qualified to be on boards that have that specific type of customer.

If you already have years and years of experience, you’ll be able to share that over a broader range of companies and industries that would benefit from your knowledge.

Being a valuable board member is about developing your professional brand as an advisor and the unique knowledge and viewpoint you bring to the table. This is exactly what we help you develop when you join AdvisoryCloud as a part of creating your Advisor Profile.

Whether you’re looking to join your first board or build a portfolio of stimulating board work over the years, AdvisoryCloud is for you.

When we started AdvisoryCloud 12 years ago we heard over and over from our clients that the number one thing they wanted was to be able to join advisory boards.

So we went about developing a way where we could guarantee board placements for our clients. We did this by spending millions to build a technology platform that makes it easy for businesses to build and manage their advisory board. The days of a 5-person advisory board are long gone, companies want more more advisors, more ideas and more advocates - and our platform makes this easy for them.

We now have hundreds of companies that exclusively build and manage their advisory boards on AdvisoryCloud - a number that is growing every month due to partnerships with accelerators like Founder’s Live and many more in the works for businesses of all types and sizes.

These relationships enable us to guarantee placement on advisory boards when you join AdvisoryCloud. Think of it as your springboard for getting started with boards and advisory work. While these boards are not paid, they enable you to add board work to your resume, share your ideas in the digital boardrooms, get experience attending board meetings (via video conference), and also establish your advisor rate that other people can in fact pay you for.

Still to this day you often need 20+ years of experience and to know the right recruiter to get on an advisory board - let alone a public company board which is even harder and has massive time commitments. We’ve changed all that, and it’s only one way we help our clients land new types of professional opportunities.

Get started by establishing your Advisor Profile and getting matched to currently open advisory boards…and expose yourself to a world of new opportunities and connections on AdvisoryCloud.

We have advisory boards in every major industry, as well as emerging areas such A.I., cryptocurrency and many others.

We have startups, small businesses, non-profits, family-run companies and private companies.

We do not have public company boards due to the massive time commitment and other regulations that surround those.

There are 84 million businesses in the United States alone, and 99.9% of them don’t have an advisory board.

Our platform makes it easy for them to set up and manage their advisory board. And our advisory board team is dedicated to getting more and more of them on our platform.

When you join an advisory board on AdvisoryCloud you can also leave it at any time and join another. We have new boards coming on every month and you’ll learn about them in your monthly email from AdvisoryCloud.

AdvisoryCloud makes sharing your ideas on a portfolio of boards easy, exciting and rewarding. We have some professionals on 3 boards and others on 10+, but almost everyone is on several boards as it expands your reach and benefits.

Every month you’ll receive a Board Member Update from each of your advisory boards. It will appear in your Messages & Notifications section of your AdvisoryCloud account. From here, you can easily share an idea, answer a survey or simply read the update. It is recommended you answer at least one question a month for each of the boards you are on, which only takes a matter of minutes. There are also ways to get more involved as well, such as board meetings, which are announced in the Board Member Update each month if it works for your schedule.

In addition to this, you may get messages from your AdvisoryCloud profile. This is someone who found your profile and is interested in connecting with you for a specific type of professional opportunity. These messages will also appear in your Messages & Notifications section of your AdvisoryCloud account.

Every month you’ll get an email from us sharing how many new messages you have, although you can log in any time you like. Plus, we’ll email you once a month recommendations for publishing thought leadership, exclusive online workshops to get exposure for your professional brand, and a review of new open advisory boards you may want to consider joining (all of this will also be in your AdvisoryCloud account as well).

Your time commitment can be as little or as much as you like - some advisors spend only 15-minutes a month sharing a quick idea for each of the boards they are on, others on our VIP Plan have a quarterly call with AdvisoryCloud and in 1-hour get up to date on all their boards, share their ideas, and review their messages.

Yes. This is normally achieved through your Advisor Rate, which is one of the things you will establish when creating your Advisor Profile, and is when a company engages you to help with a specific project.

By being guaranteed to be able to join advisory boards when you join AdvisoryCloud (which are not compensated), it presents one way for you to showcase your knowledge in a valuable way.

For example, if you are a marketing professional with extensive experience in running LinkedIn ad campaigns for software companies, your Advisor Rate could be anywhere from $2,000-$5,000 to do a full audit of their current campaigns and provide personalized recommendations for how to improve their metrics (ideally in a way that far exceeds your advisor rate).

We’ve found this one-time fee is the most time efficient way for all parties to get what they want. You can have multiple Advisor Rates for a variety of services.

Every month you’ll also get recommendations on how to promote yourself and your advisor rate by sharing thought leadership, using our exclusive tools for our clients (such as our embed widget on LinkedIn), and other ways that over time can help you make income from advisory work.

There are a number of ways that AdvisoryCloud can help increase your earnings potential over time.

First, adding advisory boards to your resume helps you stand out, shows you are able to contribute at a senior level, and can increase your salary level.

Second, establishing your Advisor Rate for specific projects can directly yield income for you. With the proper promoting of this and your experience, over time it could become a significant additional source of income for you professionally.

Third, senior-level networking and being on advisory boards can lead to a wide variety of interesting professional opportunities - new job offers, better knowledge of an emerging area such as A.I., and even startup investments.

In addition to earnings potential, so many of our opportunities provide a new level of career stimulation - regardless of where you are in your career. By engaging in new and different professional opportunities it creates a variety of paths you can take over time and puts you in the driver seat of how you want to lead your professional life over the years to come.

Your Advisor Profile is your gateway to advisory boards, paid advisory work, and a variety of other types of professional opportunities and connections.



Your Advisor Profile lives on a unique url, such as www.AdvisoryCloud.com/Jonathan-Aspatore. You can make updates or changes to it at any time, and if you elect to have an onboarding call when you sign up for AdvisorCloud, we’ll even set it up for you.

Once your Advisor Profile is live, you’ll also have access to a variety of tools and resources that help you get your name out there as an advisor.

There are a number of ways that AdvisoryCloud provides tools, resources and insights that can help you land advisory work.

First, by being guaranteed to be able to be on two advisory boards on our platform, you have the ability to showcase your knowledge on video-conference board meetings and in the digital boardroom at any time.

Second, your Advisor Profile url can be used in a variety of ways to generate traffic to this page and interest in hiring you at your Advisor Rate. The url can be used in any professional correspondence (the footer of your personal email, resume, bio), in your social media profiles, any time you share thought leadership, and even in conversation or interactions when someone wants to “get your help on something.”

Third, every month we’ll provide ideas and suggestions how to get your name out there - turning networking introductions into advisory work, case studies on landing advisory work from specific social platforms, and even using daily and professional interactions as a way to grow your professional brand as an advisor and land advisory work.

If you are already active on social media, by adding your AdvisoryCloud url to your bio, as well as sharing it when people direct message you for your advice, you can land paid advisory work through your advisor rate. Make it worth your time to provide them with the advice they want by being specific in your Advisor Rates about the types of projects/advice you can provide.

As for normal business interactions in person or via email, you can share that you are available as an advisor on AdvisoryCloud, and provide your AdvisoryCloud url for them to see the ways you can help them as an advisor. When they visit they will see your Advisor Rates and the types of project/advice you can provide.

Get started by establishing your Advisor Profile and your Advisor Rate, and immediately get access to tools and resources that turn these interactions and exposure into paid advisory work.

The next time someone sends you a LinkedIn networking request, try responding with this:

Thank you for your request - I’m available as an advisor for a variety of projects or advice on www.AdvisoryCloud.com/your-name. Check out the ways I can help as an advisor and connect with me on AdvisoryCloud.

This enables you to turn networking requests into opportunities that are actually worth your time and help you land advisory work.

Because being an advisor and being on an advisory board signals that you are at the top of your profession for your specific area of expertise.

What most people don’t realize is that your professional brand is most valuable the more specific it is. If you just are a CFO and have finance advice, there are a lot of people like you. If you are a CFO with experience at manufacturing companies in the machine tool industry, with experience helping them expand overseas, that is 4 levels of deep of experience that makes you highly valuable to a much bigger audience than you’d ever imagine.

The same thing is true even if early on in your career. If you have an interest in AI, are active on social media, have a passion for cosmetics, and are in your early 30s, you are perfectly qualified to help a wide array of existing and startup companies catering to this audience.

Plus, the people who make the most from advisory work are the ones who develop the most detailed areas of expertise. You can absolutely have more than one, and this should be reflected in the Advisor Rates you offer on your AdvisoryCloud profile.

Every professional is busy trying to juggle work, home and their personal life. This often makes it difficult to plan longer term for your professional goals - whether that’s where you want to be in the next 5 years or even what your long term plan is to begin working less some day.

When you join AdvisoryCloud, we’ll help you establish your long term professional goals. The reason we do this is advisory work is a great way to position yourself for these longer term professional goals.

These goals could be making 50% more income, landing a C-Suite job, starting a business, or even building a portfolio of advisory work so you can work whatever hours you want from wherever you want in the world.

Advisory boards and work elevate you to situations where you’ll meet interesting new people and be exposed to interesting new companies. By understanding where you want to be professionally in 5-years and even longer term, it helps you capitalize on these interactions in many more ways than just did you make money from advisory work.

In your onboarding call you’ll establish your profile on AdvisoryCloud (which will have it’s own unique url, just like a profile on LinkedIn).

Your AdvisoryCloud Profile will feature your background, your Advisor Rate, and other types of professional opportunities you’re interested in. People can connect with you only for the types of opportunities you’re interested in and hire you directly for your Advisor Rate.

On your profile on LinkedIn, there are advertisements and LinkedIn is in control of what is shown. Plus, the level of spam and junior-level inquiries is making it less and less attractive as a resource for senior professionals.

AdvisoryCloud will also provide personalized guidance and recommendations for how to drive traffic to your profile and use it to achieve your professional goals. Plus, there’s always a person to talk to or ask questions if you need help - something LinkedIn can’t provide for their billion members.

Over the last 12 years we have worked with over 25,000 professionals.

We have hundreds and hundreds of testimonials from our clients sharing their success.

However, we always point out that it takes work on our client’s end as well. Even with all the best recommendations in the world, we can’t magically make people hire you as an advisor or for a new job. The magic happens when it’s a combination of how we tee up our clients and then they close the deal.

We love working with our clients as they represent the future of the business world - the doers who want to expose themselves to new professional opportunities and see where it takes them.
