I really, really enjoyed our first board meeting. I got a chance to hear directly from company management about what they want and what they need. And this is a really, really great opportunity for me to help them and share my deep experience with an exciting company.
Zoltan Pasztory
Advisory Board Member
The first advisory board meeting I attended was fantastic. The business owner was very engaged and so was the rest of the board. The format was effective and the fact that it was moderated made for a very efficient use of everyone’s time.
Tom Shircliff

One of the reasons why we joined AdvisoryCloud was to get people with different experiences from all different walks of life who can provide us with different ideas on how to solve the problems we’re facing. AdvisoryCloud was the only solution that gave us access to high quality, talented folks from around the globe who reflected the communities we serve.
Linton Johnson
Founder & CEO at Ovis News
AdvisoryCloud has been terrific. It is a highly tailored and incredibly easy way to connect with organizations and individuals looking for someone with my qualifications and experience. I have used many other professional networking services/sites with varying degrees of satisfaction and AdvisoryCloud handily beats all of them. Thanks for a great and effective tool.
Christian Sweetser

I applaud AdvisoryCloud’s effort to disrupt an industry that’s been dependent on "word-of-mouth" and "who-you-know".

AdvisoryCloud is a great solution for advisors where you set up a call, have a specific point of discussion, and the billing happens in the background.

AdvisoryCloud has brought me opportunities I would’ve never found otherwise. The team at AdvisoryCloud is very supportive and engaged in my success. They facilitated the entire process including helping with prep-work beforehand ensuring our meeting was productive and valuable.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
How many boards can I be on?
You can be on as many as you’d like when you join AdvisoryCloud. We have some clients on 2 boards and others on 10. But you can be on 50 if you like. When you join a board, their board meetings are automatically added to your calendar. But even if you can’t attend live, you can always view them on-demand after or simply read the board meeting executive summary afterwards which only takes a couple of minutes. And at any time you can share ideas and insights in their digital boardroom.

Am I qualified for being on boards?
Absolutely yes. Companies are looking for a wide-range of ideas and feedback. And because an advisory board on AdvisoryCloud can be anywhere between 10 to several hundred people, they want the diversity of opinions. They want all ages, races, genders, locations and areas of expertise. There’s just no way that a small advisory board can have that, which is why we are seeing the trend of having larger and larger advisory boards - we’ve even heard of 10,000 person advisory boards now happening given how video-conferencing has changed everything.

Do I get paid for being on boards?
You do not get paid for being on boards. Most people don’t realize that on boards worldwide only a small percentage of them are getting paid, others are leveraging the networking opportunities, exposure to interesting businesses, and ability to immediately add board work to their resume and leverage that for other types of professional opportunities. Plus, it’s incredibly exciting to get a behind-the-scenes look at interesting businesses and what they are doing.

What is the time commitment?
The time commitment is completely up to you. The primary thing is to attend video-conference board meetings when you can, which are always under an hour. But even if you can’t attend live, you can always view them on-demand after or simply read the board meeting executive summary afterwards which only takes a couple of minutes. As you join boards, the meetings are automatically added to your calendar. Then, if you every want to share any ideas between meetings, you can do that in the digital boardroom if you like. The company advisory boards generally have quarterly board meetings, and if you also join a peer advisory board those meetings are monthly.

Do you have any boards in my industry?
We have 100s of different boards you can join - we guarantee you’ll find one or more that fit your interests. And once you join AdvisoryCloud, you’ll automatically be matched with the best fits given your background when you go through our onboarding process. However you can join any board that interests you at all - and often times it’s better to join boards in other industries and bring your unique perspective from your industry so it stands out. And you can also leave a board any time you want if the company is just not interesting to you anymore. Every day we are adding more boards, and have the largest collection of advisory boards worldwide, and they are exclusively available on AdvisoryCloud.

Who else are on the boards?
You’ll see who else is on the boards during the quarterly board meetings, even though not everyone attends each meeting. Companies are looking for a wide-range of ideas and feedback. And because an advisory board on AdvisoryCloud can be anywhere between 10 to several hundred people, they want the diversity of opinions. They want all ages, races, genders, locations and areas of expertise. There’s just no way that a small advisory board can have that, which is why we are seeing the trend of having larger and larger advisory boards - we’ve even heard of 10,000 person advisory boards now happening given how video-conferencing has changed everything.

Is there ever in-person meetings?
There are not. Our mission is to make it incredibly easy for businesses of all sizes and types to build and manage an advisory board. Doing them through video-conference quarterly meetings and a digital boardroom is what makes this possible. And it really helps for your schedule too since you can view any board meetings on-demand afterwards if you couldn’t attend live.

What types of companies do you have?
We have 100s of companies and new advisory boards being started every day. Our primary specialty is with private companies. This can include private companies of all sizes, both in the United States and Worldwide, as well as family-run companies, small businesses, startups and non-profits. While we don’t focus on public companies, we are actually starting to see teams of larger public companies build an advisory board on AdvisoryCloud. So for example, Tesla could build an advisory board for their marketing team - but this is a new trend that is just starting. Our primary area is advisory boards being set up by CEOs and founders from private companies.

How are your advisory boards different than others?
There is no such thing anymore as a normal board. Covid pushed all boards, even public companies, into using video-conference for their meetings. Our primary difference is that our advisory boards are often much larger. Plus when a company uses our platform to establish their advisory board, they agree to anyone being able to immediately join their board (once they agree to confidentiality for anything shared). The trend we are seeing is that companies want a much wider range of ages and expertise on their advisory board to get a wider and more diverse set of insights. This can mean an advisory board of 30 people or even an advisory board of 3,000. The more advisors, the broader the range of ideas and feedback for the company. We expect even public companies will start to move towards aspects of this in the coming years.
