Hampton funnels

A vetted, paid peer-group community for founders and CEOs, sold on an application and never on a price.

Hampton puts founders into “Core” groups of about ten people in their city. The groups meet monthly with a paid moderator, and Hampton adds a Slack community and events on top. Membership is for founders with $3m a year in revenue, $3m raised or a $10m exit. It’s billed annually, with a refundable deposit, annual dues and a non-refundable initiation fee, and the amount is never published.

Every funnel here is an application in some form: a city landing page with the form built in, a five-question quiz, and a free report whose download form asks the same qualifying questions. The funnels run on two platforms. The city pages and lead magnets are HubSpot (joinhampton.com), and the quiz is ClickFunnels (network.joinhampton.com).

Its advertising shows a pivot. From October 2025 to June 2026 some 660 ads sent founders to the quiz. After a two-month gap, the ads came back in August as a city-by-city campaign, “Hampton’s going all in on in-person”, with thirteen copies of one ad and one page.
