Built a 7-fig agency. Now I help people start their business from 0 with AI tools. | Early Stage Advisor

Entrepreneur for 10+ years, I work on combating Alzheimer's and loneliness with AI.

I am passionated by entrepreneurship and innovation (sold my innovation consulting company in 2023) and by neuroscience.

Here I share my journey as an entrepreneur and maybe some cool facts about the brain.

CEO (Exited)

We help businesses build and scale a predictable growth system through structured rapid marketing experimentation : 

- Acquisition system structuration and acceleration
- Commando Global GTM (go-to-market)
- Traction tests (market-fit)

Sunday thought: With the progess of AI, working on your soft skills and momdset might be the greatest bet you can make.

AI is turning knowledge and know how into commodities.

In the end, business (as an entrepreneur or an employee) is people working with people…

Being great at people, at consistency, at courage,… Is the most inalienable asset you can build.

Fun fact: I refuse every requests from people who have 📈 or 🚀 in the headline. Traumatized by the long sales pitch that follows… 😨

CEO at TheSecretCompany.co 🐙 A collective of entrepreneurs, building ambitious ventures from scratch, like in a multiplayer online game | In 3 years, our portfolio of startups has grown from 0 to 20 million € ARR ✔️

My name is Maxime Blondel (but you can call me Blondy). I'm 30. I was born and raised in the Paris suburbs. Here is a summary of my adventures of the last 10 years 👇

I used to be president of the student association of my University Institute of Technology, organizing parties & trips for +2000 students, with 7 other brilliant students in computer, communication, management, data & social sciences.

Just after, I decided to stop my studies and take 2 years to launch projects. 
With 3 friends, we launched a start-up: a Linkedin competitor for the 18-23yo, finally crashed after 11 months. 
A rich in learning failure.

I realized that I still had to learn. 
So I joined:

#1 - Le Wagon, an intensive 9-week coding bootcamp where to learn Javascript, RoR, HTML, CSS...
#2 - Reverse, a 3-month training program for 15-23yo entrepreneurs, organized by The Family, a famous startup accelerator in France.
I met incredible people there!

Over this year, I've also mainly built & grown 4 marketplaces in the event sector, from 100 to 800 unique visitors/day, 10 to 80 quote requests/day, and generated more than €500 000 of GMV/year.
After 2 years growing full time these platforms, I had the chance to receive purchase proposals, and decided to sold them.

Simultaneously, The Family (again) offered me to join their team, with a mission to find & support student-entrepreneurs.
I learned so much! 
A nice journey of ~2 years again.

In January 2020, I decided to leave and launched THE QUEST.

THE QUEST funds & supports the most creative and courageous students & dropouts, who have a deep “Why” with their project.

Whether you're building the next big social mobile app, a robot for the future, or an AI agent that would be particularly useful to you... THE QUEST supports the obsessed, the traumatized, the overly determined... who are working on new technology, a disruptive innovation, a paradigm shift, a global movement in the making.

In 5 years, the startups built inside THE QUEST have gone from €0 to over €25 million in cumulative ARR.

For example: WhoLiked (app), Spaictra.com, Latice.ai, Sparkmate.com, Minea.com, Cray Cray (app)...
