Switchboard

How Switchboard Went from Idea to 
6,000+ Users in 100 Countries

Problem: Switchboard started as an idea… a mental model for mobilizing marketplace leaders for global impact. But there was no clear product, no business model, and no unified narrative to bring it to life.
Action: Founder’s Best Friend helped shape Switchboard from scratch, moving them from strategy and messaging to structure and monetization.
Result: Raised $1.4M to fund platform development with another $1.4M in pipeline
  • Launched and activated across 100+ countries with over 6,000 engaged users
  • Partnered with many of the world’s largest Christian mission orgs
  • Defined a clear path to sustainability through recurring micro-donations and dashboard products
