Solo Episode: Why Every Founder Needs to Write a Manifesto
Welcome back to Trailblazers by Park Rangers Capital!
In this week’s solo episode, host Erica Wenger dives into why every founder should have a manifesto — a clear, written declaration of what they stand for and where they’re headed.
Erica breaks down three key benefits of writing one and walks you through five actionable steps to get started. She also makes a compelling case for the power of thoughtful, long-form writing — not just as a branding exercise, but as a way to sharpen conviction, attract alignment, and move your mission forward.
If you’ve been waiting for the “perfect moment” to write your manifesto — this is your sign to just start.
