Over the past few weeks, we’ve been running an ongoing survey with founders and CEOs to better understand how they think about online presence — and why so many struggle to sustain it, even when they believe it matters.
The responses have been remarkably consistent.
This page is a public synthesis of what we’re seeing so far.
Not a pitch. Not a whitepaper. Just the patterns.
At the time of publishing, this synthesis reflects responses from 50 founders and CEOs. The survey remains open and continues to collect responses.
The patterns below have remained consistent as responses have increased.
Founders overwhelmingly believe that having a strong online presence is important.
They also believe it contributes to meaningful business outcomes.
The belief is not the problem.
Where things break is after belief, at the level of execution.
In other words:
Founders know presence matters.
They just can’t sustain it themselves.
