Alltroo co-founders Kyle Rudolph and Jon Walburg share how they transformed their pro-athlete star power into a fundraising platform. Their model allows their community to donate to a variety of organizations and win high-value prizes.
In this episode of Build Mode, they reveal how they leveraged their networks to disrupt the charitable giving industry. This includes raising half a million dollars for the NFL in their first year and learning hard lessons about scaling too fast.
They discuss the pivot from hosting $10,000 golf tournaments to offering $10 raffle entries. The conversation covers building trust with both celebrities and fans, and why your network is your greatest competitive advantage.
