GEW - Traction Lab Startup Office Hours

Join JDM and Cam Law — co-founders of Traction Lab — for Live Startup Office Hours, where early-stage founders bring their real questions and we bring the frameworks, the fire, and the receipts.

This isn’t startup theater. This is Traction Science — the evidence-driven, experiment-backed, reality-check methodology that separates noise from signal.

We’re here to unpack the hard stuff:
- What’s actually holding back your growth
- Why your “yes” isn’t converting
- Whether that pilot is a wedge — or a waste

No slides. No founder coddling. Just sharp, honest feedback from two startup nerds who’ve seen what works — and what wastes time.
