Deep dives

The Birth of Assembly Ventures

Hunter Hammonds took a six-month sabbatical after wrapping up his successful agency Everest. During this time, he received a text from an old friend, Sahil Bloom, with an idea that aligned perfectly with Hunter's own. This idea eventually became Assembly Ventures, a creator-led B2B brand builder. Assembly Ventures partners with creators who have large audiences to launch products that cater to their audience's interests. They focus on finding the right product-audience fit and ensuring strict quality control to protect the creators' brands. Despite starting five businesses in five months, Assembly Ventures maintains high standards through its team structure, including specialized pods and shared services. They prioritize execution, constantly iterate on processes, and ensure customer satisfaction is their main focus.
