Hey PH fam! Super excited to hunt Lloyd! Lloyd is a sister / brother founding team that is empowering young professionals to lead a meaningful career. Our careers often define many aspects of our lives, yet we are left with endless blog posts and an array of self-help books to figure out what this whole career thing is for us as an individual. Enter Lloyd, which brings a human touch to careers alongside a suite of digital products. The founding team has spent over 600 hours working directly with individuals just like yourself to build all of these key learnings into what is the Lloyd product today. Give it a try and schedule a time to chat with your personal co-pilot. Oh, in case you were wondering, Lloyd is the price of a pair of socks. So what are you waiting for? 🚀

@heavyinfo thanks for this feedback. This is certainly on our roadmap. As an example, we try to engage with each member about once a week to have them set their intentions for the week en route to their goals. I'd love for you to check out the dashboard (http://app.withlloyd.com/) and provide feedback on how we can better achieve this important goal!
Danielle Fernandes
Love this concept. So many of us feel lost with next steps in our career and guidance/mentorship is so incredibly important for success.

@drdfernandes Thank you for your support!

@drdfernandes @jdgusz for real. I only wish I’d had this earlier in my career - I would have followed the heard less and spent more time doing the work I love and using my key strengths. Thanks for helping the next generation of professionals get there a decade earlier, team! What a great goal, team... and Product! :)

@mike_friedman1 thanks Mike! And really appreciate your support along the way.

What an amazing product - to support folks navigating their careers in a strange time like 2020. The founding team has experience across so many geographies and sectors they are perfectly suited to building the network and infrastructure needed. They have built an extremely powerful tool to leverage technology to partner with their clients, while also maintaining the 1:1 personal attention that is needed in helping support career (and life) decisions.

@zachary_bucheister Thanks Zach - appreciate the kind words. Like you said, our approach is to provide support for our members with both technology and a human co-pilot.

I'm a huge fan of Lloyd. Building a career path has never been so complex and interesting, with so many possible options and changes over a lifetime. If you want to be a star athlete, you have a coach. If you want to be a star in your career, why wouldn't you have the same? I'm so excited for what Lloyd is building with an easy-to use platform with coaching support to bring clarity and confidence to the career navigation process.

@erin_boyd Thanks Erin! We are big fans of yours as well - thank you for all of your support.

There is a value to 1-1 coaching that I didn’t recognize until I tried Lloyd. While it sound intuitive, the reality is that I have spent countless hours wandering lost in developing my career trajectory. They have made mentorship and guidance better through their dashboards. The insights provided have impressed me and they have won a loyal customer!
Dan Gusz

@cbharwood We appreciate you being a loyal customer! And your feedback along the way has been invaluable - thank you!
Jake McDonald
I'm so grateful for Lloyd. My coach has guided me in thinking through where I can have the most impact, find the most joy, and do the good I want to do. Lloyd has helped me both in picking up the small, practical skills needed in a job hunt and with thoughtful, big-picture advice with how to direct my career. As someone in the non-profit world, paying for a personal career coach seemed like a luxury I couldn't have afforded. But, because of Lloyd, I would now encourage almost anyone to make the really small financial investment in Lloyd's services that have provided me with invaluable guidance, empathetic support, and great peace of mind.

@jake_mcdonald2 Thanks Jake - really appreciate the kind words. We are glad Lloyd has been helpful to you!

@nikki_g @felix12777 @jdgusz @bryce_mckernan Great question! I'd say identifying the right need / problem to solve first. Longer term, accountability.

Jerry Li
Lloyd has been incredibly helpful to me in these past few months. For young professionals especially, stepping out into the recruiting world, without your college career center's support, WHILE often working a full time job, can be super daunting. Having someone in your corner to guide you through this process is honestly life-saving!
Nikki Gusz

@jerryli24 This is such a wonderful perspective, we love working with you and seeing all that your career can be!

Lloyd offers coaching for one of the most important topics in its users' lives. Nice to see the team here is bringing transparency and structure to an otherwise opaque topic. The tailored advice and focus on career advancement versus just compensation benchmarking sets this product apart.
