It started with a Pattern…
Some of the most talented founders in the room continue to walk away with the least support.
Women building real businesses — with traction, customers, and a clear vision — keep hitting the same ceiling because the infrastructure around them was never designed with them in mind. The capital still flows to the same zip codes. The networks are still closed to anyone who doesn't already have proximity to power. The institutions that are supposed to help are still measuring applications processed and press mentions instead of outcomes that actually affect entrepreneurs and the communities they build in.
This is an infrastructure gap. And the people who want to close it keep patching the edges with interventions that generate activity but rarely produce the long-term, sustainable outcomes that actually move the needle.
That's what Get Sh!t Done exists to change.
Pull up. There's plenty of room at our table for all of us to thrive.
She Scaled Despite the System
Alex Batdorf launched her first company at 19. Built her second to multi-millions and exited. The whole way through, she hit every wall the system puts in front of founders who weren't built into the blueprint.
Wrong network. Wrong zip code. Wrong face at the table.
Yet she's in the 1.7% of women who've scaled beyond $1M+. The 0.8% who've exited.
The 2% who've raised capital.
Not because the system worked for her.
Because she learned (the hard way) how to read it, navigate it, and find the cracks.
"I'm tired of us celebrating like it's supposed to be this hard. It's not a badge. It's by design."
-Alex Batdorf, founder & CEO of Get Sh!t Done
Not another program. An ecosystem.
One built on the belief that real, equitable growth only happens when we stop asking the most marginalized founders to be superhuman inside systems that were never designed for them to win.
GSD works on both sides. With women and underrepresented entrepreneurs to grow revenue, profit, and income. And with institutions meant to support them — to redesign how they show up, what they measure, and what they make possible.
That's why she built GSD.
Measurable Impact.
We've built more than programs. We've built a new way of doing business that benefits us all.
When a woman-owned business grows revenue, she hires locally. When she scales, she pursues contracts that keep wealth circulating in her community. When she exits, she gains the optionality to reinvest in herself, in her family, in the next entrepreneur, in the neighborhoods that raised her.
Her win is never just hers. It ripples.
Our founders have 25X'd revenues, bootstrapped to $1M+, raised capital, and sold companies. We've partnered with cities and institutions — including NYCEDC/Women.NYC, Google, and JP Morgan — to deliver activations and redesign entrepreneurship infrastructure from the inside.
We don’t just measure how many people served, we measure their outcomes.
And we're just getting started…

The work isn’t done. We’re just getting started.
The system isn't broken by accident. Patching it from the edges with another grant program, or another pitch competition, doesn't work.
We're here to do something different. For founders who are done surviving. For institutions ready to stop measuring the wrong things.
