Venture partners

Kill Boring Dead Ventures

It’s like Shark Tank for the chronically ambitious

We’re not just here to market brands. We want to build them, with you.

KBD Ventures is how we partner with founders, creators, weirdos, and visionaries to create co-branded chaos that sells.

You handle the product. We’ll handle the brand, buzz, and the borderline-illegal launch energy.

How It Works

You have a brand, product, idea, or side hustle with serious potential. We bring:

Red furry monster hand making a rock and roll sign with black claws on a transparent background.

Full-scale creative direction

Scroll-stopping content and paid media

Influencer integration and UGC at scale

Social media so chaotic it converts

Brand strategy with actual bite

We take the marketing wheel. You focus on product, ops, or being the face.
We get partial equity, rev share, or a custom venture structure. You get the Kill Boring Dead war machine in your corner.

The only catch? We’re in charge.

When you say yes to a venture with KBD, you’re handing us the keys to your brand’s entire marketing universe. Nothing is off limits. We’ll build you a fanbase that actually buys.

If you want “on-brand,” “tone-of-voice-approved,” “collaborative feedback loops”, you have to pay us for that. If you want to wake up to a product that people can’t stop talking about, welcome home.

FAQ

Do you only work with existing brands?

Nope. If you’ve got a killer idea and no infrastructure, we’re down to build it with you from the ground up. We’re open to co-developing products if the chaos is worth it.

What kind of ventures do you invest in?

Consumer brands with personality potential. Anything that can be memed, obsessed over, eaten, worn, drunk, or posted about while hungover.

What do you take in return?

Depends. Could be equity, rev share, royalty, or a custom split. But we’re not an agency-for-hire model here, we have skin in the game.

Can I still have input on creative?

Only if your ideas are better than ours.

Do I get final sign-off?

Technically yes. But by then, you’ll be saying “holy shit” too often to hit reject.

Do you accept beverages with “natural adaptogens”?

Only if they taste like regret and cure our group chat burnout.

What if my product is boring?

We’ll un-bore it. Or kill it. Either way, it’ll be memorable.

Is this like Shark Tank?

If the sharks were meme lords and didn’t wear suits.

Who shouldn’t apply?

Anyone looking for a safe pair of hands, quarterly reports, or a “collaborative feedback process.”

Do you accept late-night voice notes as pitches?

Yes. Especially if they start with “This might be illegal…”

Will you steal my idea?

No. We have too many of our own. Most of them deranged. All of them expensive.
