Episode 11 Premieres April 10 – A New Era of Purpose-Driven Business and Real-Time Investment
In today’s fast-paced world, the intersection of technology, entrepreneurship, and philanthropy is becoming increasingly important. Innovative companies aren’t just looking to make a profit—they’re creating products and platforms that generate tangible impact, solve real-world problems, and build communities around shared values. In the latest episode of Go Fund Yourself on Cheddar TV, two such companies—GivBux and TechLok’s LapLok—took center stage, demonstrating how entrepreneurs can drive both profit and purpose while engaging directly with a growing audience of potential investors.
Airing April 10, Episode 11 highlights how emerging startups can leverage the unique power of live crowdfunding, mentorship, and media exposure to propel their businesses forward. In this special edition of the show, these purpose-driven companies captivated the panel of industry Titans, proving that innovation and societal impact can go hand in hand.
GivBux: Revolutionizing the Future of Giving and Consumer Engagement
The world of fintech is evolving, and GivBux is leading the charge. This “Super App” merges commerce and philanthropy in a way that makes charitable giving as easy as shopping. With a focus on seamless integration, GivBux allows users to earn rewards, send eGifts, and automatically donate a percentage of their purchases to a cause they care about. This model is revolutionizing the way consumers engage with brands by aligning their purchasing power with social responsibility.
The GivBux team showcased their scalable, tech-driven solution that taps into the growing trend of conscious consumerism—where consumers are looking for more than just products; they want to support businesses that align with their values. As the Titans remarked during the episode, GivBux doesn’t just create value for consumers; it brings measurable impact to the communities and causes that need it most.
But what makes GivBux truly unique is its ability to mobilize community capital. With live crowdfunding built into Go Fund Yourself, viewers watching at home aren’t just passive observers—they are active investors who can immediately support businesses they believe in. This live funding model allows companies like GivBux to access a diverse range of micro-investors, while giving individuals the opportunity to contribute to something greater than themselves.
LapLok by TechLok: Empowering the Mobile Workforce with Cutting-Edge Security
While GivBux focuses on leveraging tech to drive social good, TechLok’s LapLok tackles a growing security threat for professionals on the move. In today’s digital world, with millions of laptops stolen every year, safeguarding devices is more critical than ever. LapLok provides a next-generation solution: an adjustable locking mechanism, an integrated alarm system, and password management tools all in one compact, easy-to-use device. It’s designed for professionals working in coffee shops, airports, or co-working spaces—anywhere remote workers might need extra peace of mind when they step away from their laptops.
What LapLok does is simple yet profound: it removes a significant pain point for remote workers, business owners, and IT departments concerned about data theft and device loss. The product is not just a security tool—it’s a peace-of-mind solution for the modern mobile workforce. With the growing trend of digital nomadism and remote work, LapLok is positioned to tap into a massive market in dire need of better protection for their digital assets.
The Titans were quick to see the potential, emphasizing that LapLok isn’t just a consumer product—it’s a solution with enterprise-scale applications. For businesses that rely on secure devices, LapLok provides a tangible answer to a billion-dollar problem. As one Titan pointed out, “This product solves an urgent problem with a simple, scalable solution.”
The Value of Mentorship and Crowdfunding in the Startup Ecosystem
What sets Go Fund Yourself apart from traditional pitch shows is the invaluable mentorship entrepreneurs receive from seasoned business leaders. The Titans offer much more than just capital—they bring years of strategic insights, industry expertise, and a network of connections that can help companies scale rapidly.
For entrepreneurs like GivBux and LapLok, the exposure and guidance provided by the show can be the difference between remaining a small startup or becoming an industry leader. The ability to directly engage with live audiences through crowdfunding also empowers companies to grow organically, building a community of investors, customers, and advocates along the way.
Crowdfunding isn’t just a fundraising tool—it’s an opportunity for businesses to build loyalty and brand recognition from the ground up. Viewers don’t just watch the episode—they actively participate, investing in companies they believe in and contributing to their success. This creates a truly unique ecosystem where businesses, investors, and consumers collaborate to drive growth.
Looking Ahead: The Future of Entrepreneurial Impact
As GivBux and LapLok demonstrate, today’s most successful startups are those that combine technological innovation with purpose-driven missions. Both companies are addressing pressing market needs—whether that’s creating new ways for people to give back or providing security solutions for an increasingly mobile workforce.
The real question is: how will entrepreneurs continue to leverage new technologies, live crowdfunding, and mentorship to scale their impact? As the business landscape evolves, it’s clear that Go Fund Yourself is helping shape the future of entrepreneurship by blending the worlds of media, funding, and mentorship into a powerful new model for startup success.
