The problem

Cold outreach to CEOs mostly gets ignored.

It isn't that your offer, your candidate or your experience isn't good enough. Decision makers simply don't respond to strangers.

Their inboxes are full

CEOs get more pitches than they could ever read. Yours lands in the same pile as everyone else's.

Gatekeepers filter you out

Assistants, spam filters and "send me some info" are all designed to keep strangers away.

Trust comes first

Decision makers say yes to people they know, or to people vouched for by someone they know.

A warm intro changes the conversation. CEO Dock gets you warm intros. Book a call
How it works

Give intros. Get intros. Every week.

Members meet in small virtual circles, learn who each other wants to meet, and open doors in their own networks.

Tell us who you're trying to reach. You get a candid review of your current approach, yours to keep whether or not you join.

Sit in on one meeting, see how intros are passed, and decide if it's right for you.

Share who you want to meet

Name the companies, roles and people you want to reach. Your circle keeps them in mind.

Every week, members make introductions from their own networks, always with both people's consent.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Is it really free?

Yes. Introductions between members are always free, and so are the 20-minute call and your first visit as a guest. If we add paid programs later, we'll explain them clearly before you choose.

Do I need to be a CEO to join?

No. Most members are professionals who need to reach CEOs and decision makers: sales, recruiting, consulting, fractional executives, job seekers and founders.

What exactly is a warm intro?

A member who knows a decision maker introduces you personally, explaining why the two of you should talk. It's very different from a cold email, because someone they trust has vouched for you.

How much time does it take?

One 60-minute virtual circle a week, plus a few minutes to follow up on introductions you give and receive.

Will members spam my contacts?

No. Every introduction needs both people's consent, and the members' pledge forbids pitching guests or spamming. Members who break it are removed.

What happens on the call?

We talk about who you're trying to reach and how you approach them today. You get candid feedback either way, and if CEO Dock is a good fit, an invitation to visit a circle.

Your next CEO meeting could be one intro away.
