Find Your Business Bandmates: The Playbook For Finding Partners Who Share Your Mission & Grow Your Impact

The right business partners don’t just boost your productivity—they amplify your legacy.

In Find Your Business Bandmates, Category Pirates—Christopher Lochhead, Eddie Yoon, and Katrina Kirsch—share a powerful new lens for finding and aligning with the people who can help you create legendary outcomes. Using the metaphor of a rock band, this mini-book breaks down how to assemble your ideal team of complementary talents—people who elevate your ideas, challenge your thinking, and jam with you to design radically different futures. You’ll learn how to identify red-flag personalities (like “resume reminders” and “one-hit wonders”), score potential collaborators with the 100-point Bandmate Scorecard, and create long-term alignment using a 15-question Band Agreement. Whether you’re starting a company, hiring a co-founder, or looking for your next big opportunity, this is the ultimate guide to building a team that doesn’t just play well together—they make history.

In this “mini-book,” you will learn:

• How to spot 11 nightmare bandmate archetypes—from energy vampires to ego-driven credit hoarders.
• What makes someone a legendary bandmate (and how to become one yourself).
• Why radical trust and radical acceptance are non-negotiables for high-performing teams.
• How to engineer serendipity and recognize your next legendary partnership in the wild.
• Two powerful tools: a 100-point Bandmate Scorecard and 15-question Band Agreement to assess and align your crew.

Fast-paced, sharply insightful, and packed with real-world stories, this “mini-book” gives you the clarity and frameworks to find—or form—the kind of team that multiplies your mission and creates exponential results.
