Thanks for reaching out.
My calendar is booked pretty far out. I built this page to help you by answering some of the questions I get the most. I hope it's helpful!
What if I don't find the answer I'm looking for on here? Feel free to email me at maiernoah@gmail.com (personal) or noah@galaxygives.com with your question. I'll add pertinent questions to this page as they come in.
Can I get your help with my pitch deck? Yes. Please either email me the deck or create a Loom video explaining your situation and the kind of feedback you're looking for. I am happy to help with the copy editing or strategic direction.
By talking to you, can I get you to send my project to Mike Novogratz (or a similar wealthy person)? Nope. Really sorry about this, but I get this request a lot.
Will you give a training to my board? Yes, but I need to charge a lot for these because of my limited time. $1k for an hour on Zoom, $5k for a one day in-person training. There are many wonderful professionals who charge less and get the job done just as well, I'd encourage you to ask them first.
I'm raising money for a super cool project. Can you introduce me to the people you know? If it is related to democracy, drug policy, or criminal justice reform the answer is maybe. Email me to discuss, noah@galaxygives.com. If it's unrelated to those three areas, I sadly can't help make introductions right now.
How can I schedule a Galaxy-related conversation with you? Email my assistant Erika, erika@galaxygives.com.
I have an issue with you or something you wrote. I'd love to hear it - feedback is how we get better. Please feel free to email me directly.
You haven't responded to my emails or texts. Feel free to email again - I do my best but I'm at about 100 texts and 300 emails a day right now. Things do fall through the cracks, even very important things. I apologize in advance.
Will you teach me how to raise money? Yes, I do several of these "basics" calls every week. Please schedule it with Erika, erika@galaxygives.com. We can get a lot done in an hour, but if you need more time my rate is $500/hr. Again, there are many cheaper people who might be able to help, and I encourage you to seek them out first.
