We reached out to several funds and incubators to get our one pager listed as a resource. This post contains proof of listing for any portfolio companies or incubees considering using our deal / perk. And perhaps this approach of just asking can help you with your startup as well!
We followed up by sending each of the partners or VCs who listed our one pager a stainless steel LD Talent waterbottle, T-shirt, and sticker.
