The short version

Retention Rocket is a sponsor group of 10 issuers that PartnerFacts links to one sponsor (shared people, same business address, similar issuer names; automatic match from the filings), filing 10 Form D filings between Apr 2011 and Nov 2025.

What this means One team, 10 deal companies, about 14 years of track record in SEC filings. We link the companies because the same people or address appear on their forms — tap "Request a correction" if that is wrong.

Combined reported sold: $23.6M to 79 investors (latest filing per issuer). Industries as reported: Restaurants (6), "Other" (3), Other Technology (1). Issuers are based in CA (10).

What this means $23.6M raised across the group, about $298K per investor. Amounts come from each company's latest Form D; they are what the sponsor reported, not audited figures.

Principal people: James Brennan (9 issuers, executive officer, director, and promoter), Dylan Whitman (3 issuers, executive officer and director), Brian Levine (2 issuers, executive officer and director), John Thaler (2 issuers, director), Ted Fogliani (2 issuers, director) and 6 more.

What this means The person on the most companies is usually the one running the show; their page lists every deal.

Activity: 1 new offering in the last 12 months; latest filing Nov 14, 2025.

What this means still raising money this year.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA), property records (NYC, FL, IL and TX counties) — 1 court case matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 1 record came back, including 1 court case still open — open cases can take years and cost money. Each one is listed below with a link to the original document and a line saying why it matched. A name match is not proof it is the same person or company — read the why line and the document. Being sued or named in a release is an accusation, not a finding.

We compared 10 public filings for Retention Rocket and found 7 differences, 2 worth asking the sponsor about: 7 Form Ds were filed more than 15 days after the first sale; 2 separate companies in this group use the same name: "Retention Rocket, LLC"; and more below.

What this means These are differences between the sponsor's own SEC filings — both values, dates and sources are listed in Key records, section 4. Most have ordinary explanations; ask the sponsor.

4. Differences between public sources

No comparisons published

What is compared

No public statement by this sponsor group has been collected yet, so there is nothing to compare. Sources compared: the sponsor's own website (known from the issuer's own filings — Form C issuer website, EDGAR company profile — an approved profile claim or Form ADV Item 1.I of its matched adviser) · SEC Form D · SEC Form ADV (IAPD) · Internet Archive · No website is on file for this sponsor group yet.

7 differences found between the filings for Retention Rocket — 2 worth asking about (compared 10 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Nov 23, 2009 – Jan 4, 2019

7 Form Ds were filed more than 15 days after the first sale

Form D filed 401 days after the first sale — Fabric of Social Dining, L.P. · Form D filed 388 days after the first sale — Point Loma Eats, LLC · Form D filed 401 days after the first sale — La Mesa Eats, LLC · Form D filed 346 days after the first sale — Campine Catering, LLC · Form D filed 1,033 days after the first sale — 7th & C Investments, LLC · and 2 more

What this means Late notices are common and carry no penalty by themselves. A pattern of late paperwork is worth asking the sponsor about.

Sources
Worth asking · Apr 19, 2018 – Jan 4, 2019

2 separate companies in this group use the same name: "Retention Rocket, LLC"

CIK 1738029 (first filed Apr 19, 2018, San Diego, CA); CIK 1762884 (first filed Jan 4, 2019, San Diego, CA).

What this means Two legal entities with one name can make it unclear which one you invested in. Match the CIK and the SEC file number on your documents, not just the name.

Sources
Note · Apr 10, 2018 – Apr 19, 2018

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Retention Rocket, LLC (latest filing Apr 19, 2018)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Apr 19, 2018 (first sale Apr 10, 2018). It reports $100,000 sold of $600,000 offered. No later amendment is in our index as of Oct 24, 2026.

What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. The raise may simply have ended — a Form D does not say when it closed. Ask the sponsor whether the offering closed, when, and at what amount.

Sources
Note · Aug 17, 2011 – Sep 21, 2012

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Fabric of Social Dining, L.P. (latest filing Sep 21, 2012)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Sep 21, 2012 (first sale Aug 17, 2011). It reports $14,400,000 sold of $15,000,000 offered. No later amendment is in our index as of Oct 24, 2026.

What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. The raise may simply have ended — a Form D does not say when it closed. Ask the sponsor whether the offering closed, when, and at what amount.

Sources
Note · Apr 13, 2011 – Apr 19, 2018

James Brennan is written 3 different ways on the filings

listed as "James W Brennan" on the Apr 13, 2011 filing, and "James Watson Brennan" on 6 filings (from Sep 21, 2012), and "James Brennan" on 2 filings (from Apr 19, 2018).

What this means Same person, written differently — a middle name or suffix left off, or spelled another way. It is normal, but check that the full legal name matches your subscription documents.

Sources
Note · Apr 13, 2011 – Nov 14, 2025

Member companies were formed in 2 different states

California (6), Delaware (4) — out of 10 member issuers. The odd ones out: Flank Digital, LLC (Delaware); Retention Rocket, LLC (Delaware); Retention Rocket, Inc. (Delaware); Ship Calm LLC (Delaware).

What this means Sponsors often form each deal company in Delaware or Wyoming no matter where the property is. A mix is common; it just tells you which state's rules each company lives under.

Sources
Note · Jan 4, 2019

Issuer used a different name before — Retention Rocket, Inc.

SEC records list prior names for this filer: Text Co LLC; Retention Rocket, LLC. The current name on file is "Retention Rocket, Inc.".

What this means A name change is normal, but your documents may show the old name. Match the CIK, not just the name.

Sources
What is compared

What is compared: every Form D and D/A we hold for this subject, side by side — filing dates vs. first-sale dates (the 15-day rule), amendment timing on open offerings (the yearly-amendment expectation), amounts sold, investor counts, offering amounts and minimums across amendments, industry and size bands, addresses, how each person's name and role is written, paid sellers' CRD numbers, and (for groups) where the member companies were formed and sit. Everything is as filed by the issuer; the SEC does not check it. Differences are common and usually have ordinary explanations — we show both values, the dates, and the source so you can ask. As of Oct 24, 2026.

Counts come from Form D Items 12–15 on the filings in our index (latest filing per offering; one offering = one SEC file number; an amendment updates its offering rather than adding one). "To insiders" = gross proceeds used for payments to executive officers, directors or promoters. "—" = not reported on that filing. Amounts marked (est.) were reported as estimates. "Paid to sell it" = sales compensation recipients named on that filing (Item 12), each linked to FINRA BrokerCheck when a CRD number is reported.
