Rule 1 was built by a team of serial-entrepreneurs who, after years of successfully building and selling businesses, saw an opportunity for them to be built and grow faster, avoiding the pitfalls that hold back most startups. They knew that most great ideas fail because of either the wrong people, strategy, or process.
So they set out to build a center of excellence for entrepreneurs to have access to world-class functional experts, and the blue-prints and processes that have helped launch hundreds of B2B SaaS businesses.
Since being founded in 2019, Rule 1 successfully launched 7 companies - and counting. And we're just getting started.
Our world-class leadership team has the criteria to make your dream a reality.

Be scrappy and have grit. If you get knocked down, keep getting back up. Stay calm under pressure and don’t take things personally. Be an unruffled, positive person who doesn't partake in any drama.
Be clever, skillful, resourceful, ingenious. Be a critical thinker and problem solver. Make decisions and keep moving, even when you don’t have perfect information. Have a growth mindset - constantly learn and improve.
Have a single-minded focus on the end goal and do whatever it takes to get there (even if you have to shift your strategy along the way). Stay in alignment with the rest of the team and overcome obstacles. Anti-value is getting distracted by shiny objects that don’t move the team forward toward the goal, or doing your own thing in a vacuum.
Put the goals and needs of the team before your own.
Support and help your teammates, even when it’s not in your job description. Freely give credit to your teammates and uplift others. Listen and communicate with others well.
Transactional and manual workflow inefficiencies exist across B2B ecosystems due to the analog processes and inefficient data usage and management. This results in capability gaps and dependency on less skilled labor. Rule 1 is focused on addressing these opportunities through digital automation.
