SheWolf Collaborative is a virtual community for female founders to alter the global business landscape by connecting, empowering and equipping women to succeed.
Here's the problem: Current "womens' groups" for female founders do not offer enough substance or provide tangible action items and tools for business success. This is because:
- Topics covered are often too broad and are based on motivation, rather than action steps
2. There isn't enough exposure to the stepping stones to success, including mid-level growth tiers
3. Groups can often grow too quickly which loses the intimacy of peer-to-peer mentorship
As a result, female founders are overwhelmed by their options and often feel like they aren't getting benefits from the current groups they are members of.
There are 12.3 million women-owned businesses with 1800 new businesses started each day. Only 4.2% of all women-owned firms have revenues of 1 million or more. The more we succeed, the more we can impact business culture, building environments we want to work in. Our success relies on the success of our members.
SheWolf is making a dent by connecting you with women who are building existing businesses, to give you:
Tangible advice, under NDA, on topics you need help with, such as: how to dip into that line of credit for payroll, handle business litigation, owe taxes, and hire team members.
Our members are at various business stages, from $50k to $7MM in annual revenue, and can speak to each of the steps in between.
We equip you to pick your own path for intimacy and peer-mentorship through webinars, classes, meetups, retreats, and expert partners at the click of a mouse.
SheWolf is for growth-minded, high-achieving women, women making moves. This is for women who have been in business for at least 1 year, out of the idea stage and into the making money stage. This is for women who want to engage with others like them and be a part of the pack.
When researching SheWolf we traveled to 10 different cities, went to 13 different women's events and conferences, joined 8 other memberships to research community offerings. We also interviewed 109 women all over the U.S and spoke with female VC's to discover what the real female founder needs.
On top of this, I, Jordan Lacenski, am also a female founder so I understand first hand the pain points. I have run my own virtual branding firm for 3 years, working with both remote teams and local teams across 3 cities. I have learned the hard way, I have fallen on my face, and I have gotten back up.
I have been bootstrapping this endeavor for as long as I possibly can and I am raising money on iFundWomen to grow our team and give our members access to upcoming programming, which will include retreats, meetups, specialized content, expert recruitment, and all the things that will make our founders successful. We are raising money to accelerate growth and NOW. We know that we get ONE shot to earn your trust, ONE shot to make this work, and we want you to be a part of that process.
We are raising capital, and we are doing it with people who care, people who want to see an equal playing field for ALL women, women with start-ups, women of color, women in lower income areas, women with grad school debt, women with experience, women in tech, women with ideas. By supporting this mission now, you can opt-in as a member with extra perks for life, you can shop our SheWolf store, you can tell your story on our podcast, and more. We know that some of you are supporters of our mission, but may not be a female founder yourself, so we have cool rewards for you too. Check them out below and Thank YOU for supporting the success of women who are brave enough to start something of their own.
