DealStack Council
You can find private deals anywhere. The harder part is knowing what deserves more attention, what information is missing, and when to walk away.
DealStack Council gives you a year of ongoing access to the live DealStack decision room, where investors examine real opportunities, ask better questions, and learn how other investors think.

What DealStack members say
It’s not like, all right, you’re done the course, boom, access deleted… Really appreciate the continued access to it, which is huge.
Ian JohnstonHealthcare ProfessionalAt 27, I finally feel like I’m building the right foundation — not just chasing deals. I didn’t want to wait until my 40s or 50s to take this seriously. Cashflow Academy gave me a real framework for evaluating opportunities and a plan for which deals to start with. I’m in more deals now, but more importantly, I actually understand why I’m in them.
Michael AlberseGoogle Cloud Account ExecutiveI always feel like you can learn so much from people a few years ahead of you on the journey.
Kathleen MarcellCustomer Success & Operations ExecutiveI went from second‑guessing every deck to knowing exactly what to look for — and when to walk away. The framework and risk stack helped me organize my thinking and surface things I hadn’t considered. Now I know what actually matters in a deal instead of getting lost in the pitch.
Karin LeungDirector, Sales Transformation“Being able to think out loud and get structured feedback was invaluable.” The Buy Box work and the risk capital stack created real “aha” moments for me. Your process helped me organize my priorities, rethink what actually matters in my strategy, and surface things I hadn’t considered before.
Tod SpoonerChief Revenue Officer (CRO)The DealStack Accelerator gives you a month inside the live decision room. Council gives you the year.
You do not need to wait until you have another deal to benefit.
The value is staying close to the room, the questions, the patterns, and the ongoing flow of private-market opportunities.
Every Friday, 12:00–3:00 Eastern
Open to the DealStack network
A paid investment firm presents an opportunity for 30 minutes, followed by 30 minutes of investor questions.
You will hear:
The Deal Briefing is educational and informational. It is not a recommendation to invest.
If no suitable live opportunity is available, the 12:00 hour may feature an archived DealStack case, a diligence workshop, an educational teardown, or a framework lesson. A weak opportunity is never placed on the calendar just to fill the hour.
Included with Council
Members-only sessions are not shared as recordings: the value is in being there. After each one, Council members get a recap:
A recap is a record of what was discussed, not a list of recommended deals. The Deal Briefing is the only session recorded to share.
Council members receive four expert sessions each year with professionals who can provide specialized educational perspectives on private-market investing.
Topics may include:
Each session includes:
Expert sessions are educational and informational. They are not individualized legal, tax, or investment advice.
Your first year includes:
Council is designed for investors who want an ongoing room, not a one-time course.
You do not need to attend every session. You do not need to present a deal. You do not need to make an investment. You do not need to have a deal reviewed.
The room continues whether or not you have a deal to present that week.
Council members may submit a deal at any time: pick a deal on DealStack that is open to everyone, then choose whether to present it yourself or stay anonymous.
A deal that is not on DealStack yet cannot be submitted; ask the firm to list it. Nothing you submit is published, endorsed, or added to DealStack.
No specific Deal Review date is guaranteed, and Council does not give you priority in the queue.
Council provides continued access to the room and queue for the year. It does not promise a personal presentation slot.
Fit
Council is for investors who:
The purpose of the Council is not to eliminate uncertainty. The purpose is to help you ask better questions, identify missing information, and make more disciplined decisions.

DealStack Council is educational and informational. DealStack does not make investment decisions for members. DealStack and its representatives do not tell members what to buy, sell, or wire. The room’s discussion is not investment advice or a recommendation. You are responsible for conducting your own diligence and making your own investment decisions. Paying does not change which deals you can see.
