You have high expectations for yourself. You know that you and your work have incredible potential – but for some reason you aren't quite realizing that potential.
I get it – I've been there. In fact, without keeping myself in an environment where I'm surrounded by other people pushing themselves and meeting their potential, I wouldn't be where I am today.
The Unreal Collective Accelerator creates a place for founders, freelancers, and creators to help each other move faster. The accelerator is intentionally light on "curriculum" and heavy on structure.
It's all about clarity and action. No added "work" – just helping you organize, prioritize, and take action on what matters.
We meet once per week for an hour on a video call, in addition to a kickoff, mid-point, and finale call with the whole cohort.
Our goal isn't to give you more to do, our goal is to help you identify the things that are truly important, but not urgent. The things that will truly move the needle in your project or business.
We provide the structure to identify those activities and the support to get them done.
Which of these sounds most like you?
Founder
You're building a business that's bigger than yourself. You are creating and selling products, hiring employees, and generally building a business you want to scale.
Freelancer
You're an artist, creative, or maker of things. You are earning an income and maybe even making a living by doing the work you do best for people who need it.
Creator
You're working on a creative project. Maybe it's a blog, podcast, YouTube channel, album, or more. You want to improve your content and grow your audience.
Anna is a conversion copywriter and brand strategist.
When Anna first joined Unreal Collective, she was just a couple of months into diving into the wonderful world of freelancing full time. She had already taken steps to outline goals for herself, and was looking to Unreal to help hold her accountable.
Anna says that Unreal helped her learn more about helping run her business, too. And just a year into freelancing, she's found real success being her own boss.
"I really needed Unreal as a support structure, because while I am really good at my craft, running a business is different. And I needed help."

Travis is the founder and CEO of TribeVest, a platform for small-group investing.
When Travis joined Unreal, he was just getting started full time building TribeVest. Through the accelerator, Travis refined his pitch deck, began building his MVP, building his team, and even kicked off his fundraise.
Shortly after the accelerator, Travis used his deck to win a local pitch competition!
"It has led to valuable networking. In fact, I've partnered with Unreal members, past members, and hired some folks to help me at TribeVest."

Val is an email conversion strategist and copywriter.
When Val joined Unreal, she was already on top of her game. She was already earning well over six figures as a copywriter, and was looking at new product offerings.
Through Unreal, Val finished a course on customer retention and organized a workshop for copywriters who wanted to learn email strategy.
That workshop was so successful, that Val launched an incubator to help folks go even further.
Tbh, I wasn’t sure I was going to love the Unreal Collective. I feel like I’m constantly surrounded by people and have way too much to consume on a daily basis...why would I choose to add more? But something told me to join this last round and I’m so glad I listened.

And it’s not just @jayclouse’s leadership that is incredible (though that’s true). The people who make up the collective are Top Notch Humans ™. They’re kind and generous, brave and challenging. Being part of Unreal is making me a better human AND a smarter business owner.

It all starts with a 12-week planning roadmap with your facilitator.
Before you are matched or meet with your group, we work together to outline a detailed 12-week roadmap for your Unreal experience.
We cover goals, current state, milestones, and anticipate any challenges.
You are carefully matched with four other individuals based on your goals and background.
You will meet on a 60-minute Zoom video call every week for 12 weeks with your group and facilitator. We share perspective, feedback, ideas, and advice to help you break through roadblocks.
Outside of the calls, we leverage Slack for communication.
Your group has its own private channel, and public channels connect the whole Collective. We've been a part of over-grown Slack communities that become too crowded to be effective or helpful. So we keep our group small and focused, staying under 100 members at a time.
At the end of each call, members self-declare action items.
At the beginning of the next call, we check against them and share progress. Together, we work towards your 12-week goals.
- Monthly community video calls
- Access to our members-only resource center
- Half off enrollment to Freelancing School

“At the beginning of Unreal Collective, Exploring With Words had 8 listings on Etsy...now we have almost 200. I went from making about $200 per month in revenue to $1,100.”
“Jay created a diverse group of individuals in age, thinking styles, and career paths, who bring different skills and experiences. That is difficult to do on your own.”
"12 weeks after starting Unreal Collective, we have an amazing team...a really solid foundation...and we have prospective clients."
