Who pays for this
Somebody has to
buy the pizza.
Every Build Night is free to attend. The venue, the food, the go bags, the raffle — all of it is paid for by one company. Here's exactly who they are and what they get out of it.
The sponsor
WeRunYourBiz
They build and run the systems inside established businesses — mostly warehouses, distributors, and wholesalers. Inventory counts that actually match the floor. Orders that move the count when they move the material. The paperwork that usually eats somebody's whole week.
They're not a software company and they're not an ad agency. They install the operating system a business should have had, and then they stay and run it.
No spin
What they get out of it. Honestly.
- 01
They meet people worth hiring
Watching somebody build for two hours tells you more than any interview. Several of the people they work with walked in through this door first.
- 02
They meet owners who eventually hire them
Not in the room. Months later, usually, because somebody remembered who helped them for free and didn't ask for anything.
That's it. No mailing list handoff, no lead capture, no list of attendees sold to anybody. Neither of those two things happens in the room, and both are worth more to them than a pitch would be.
The boundary
The line we don't cross
- —
What's allowed
One sentence at the start naming who paid for the night. A card in the go bag saying what they do and who they're hiring. That's the whole thing.
- —
What isn't
No pitch, no demo, no presentation, no "quick word from our sponsor." The host never describes their services. Nobody follows you to the parking lot.
If the room ever feels like a sales funnel, it stops being worth attending — and then it's worth nothing to them either.
Second path
Want to sponsor a room in your city?
Rooms cost about five hundred dollars a night to run — venue, food, go bags, raffle. If you want to cover one in your city, the same rules apply to you as to them: your name gets said once, your card goes in the bag, and you never sell to the room.
If that sounds like a bad deal, this isn't the right room for you, and we mean that kindly.
