Investor Connect Podcast

Investor, Advisor, Mentor, Board

Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing.

There are four ways someone can help a startup outside of becoming an employee.

You can be an investor, an advisor, a mentor, or a board member. 

As an investor, you can fund the startup.

As an advisor, you can guide the founder on strategy and make introductions.

As a mentor, you can coach the startup on various aspects of running the business such as hiring, planning, selling, and more.

As a board member, you can provide governance and oversight over the company.

Each role takes a certain amount of time.

The investor role can take little time with just monthly or quarterly check-ins.

The advisor role could take more time with two to four calls per month.

The mentor role could be two lunches a month or more.

The board member role could take ten hours a month or more.

Consider your time availability before committing to a startup.


Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding.

Let’s go startup something today.

On this episode of Investor Connect, Hall welcomes Daran Herrman, CEO at Goboto and the Host of Establishing Your Empire Podcast.

Headquartered in Austin, Texas, and founded in 2018, Goboto is a full-service marketing company with 100+ clients all over the world including China, Australia, UK, Indonesia, Singapore, and Kansas. Clients range from nonprofits that provide life- saving heart surgery (heartgift.org), to a company with a $3 Billion investment fund to acquire businesses.

Establishing Your Empire is a filmed podcast that inspires entrepreneurs, creatives and future business owners to pursue their passions, grow their organizations and build their empire. Guests are interesting people doing interesting things and range from founders, to musicians, to film directors.

At the ripe age of 13 years old, Daran’s professional career started by washing dishes and getting paid $3 per hour… cash. While in high school, his resumé was already filling up with everything from selling shoes to IT support. Before his 21st birthday, he co-founded his first company, and within a year, his team orchestrated a merger with a complementary retail business and exited before receiving his college diploma.

Daran is creatively best known for his photography, but business wise, his claim to fame is growing a company from $15K per month in online sales to breaking the one million dollar a month barrier. 

Daran speaks about current happenings in his startup world, driving trends, the ecosystem in Austin, the online information source he finds most helpful and much more.
