Monopolize Midwest EOS Data via Proprietary Implementation Registry

Intel / Context Summary

Traction Capital Focus Fund II has $44.8M in deployable capital with immediate deployment pressure, but faces commercial constraints: geographic restriction to Minnesota/Midwest businesses and mandatory EOS operating system adoption for all portfolio companies.

Catalyst: Why Now

No centralized database exists tracking which Midwest companies have implemented EOS, to what depth, and their capital readiness. Traction Capital's specific investment criteria (EOS + Midwest) creates desperate need for this dataset, which competitors will also pay to access.

Friction: The Bottleneck

• Vulnerability: No centralized database exists tracking which Midwest companies have implemented EOS, to what depth, and their capital readiness. Traction Capital's specific investment criteria (EOS + Midwest) creates desperate need for this dataset, which competitors will also pay to access.
• Capital yield: $75k-$125k annual recurring revenue from 5+ fund subscriptions
• Resource capture: Proprietary dataset of Midwest EOS implementation status
• Influence capture: Authority as definitive source for EOS investment targeting
• Sovereignty yield: Data moat that compounds with each verification
• Required vectors: Vector: Web Scraping & Data Engineering, Vector: Market Research & Verification, Vector: SaaS Platform Development

Wedge: Execution Protocol

Phase 1: EOS Implementation Footprint Mapping: Scrape EOS Worldwide website for all certified implementers in Midwest states. Use LinkedIn Sales Navigator to identify their client lists. Cross-reference with state business registries to verify company existence and size. Build initial database of 200+ potential EOS-implementing companies. → Phase 2: Data Enrichment & Verification Layer: Deploy phone verification campaign using call center service to confirm EOS implementation status, timeline, and key metrics (revenue growth, employee count, quarterly rock completion). Offer $50 Amazon gift card for 10-minute verification call. Integrate with ZoomInfo for executive contact enrichment. → Phase 3: Subscription Platform Launch & Fund Sales: Build simple web portal with search/filter capabilities. Price at $15k/year for single fund access, $25k for enterprise (unlimited users). Cold-email all Midwest-focused VC funds from PitchBook database (filter: geography=Midwest, AUM=$10M-$200M). Offer Traction Capital exclusive 6-month early access at $20k if they sign before platform public launch.
