Fuel Your Startup

The hybrid experience

To make it easy for you to learn, Fuel Your Startup is designed to be a blend of live webinars (that are recorded so you can watch later) and an in-person celebration at the end of the program.

Each module has some homework that you can submit via email. If you can't attend the live webinar, you can send your questions in advance so you can hear the answer on the replay.

The program modules include:

• Find Your Customers

• Make More Sales

• Mind Your Money

• Fund Your Dreams

• Protect Your Assets

• Manage Your Time

​

Completion celebration (and our gift to you)

We want to celebrate your completion of the program, so in addition to the in-person party, where we'll toast to your success and all your hard work, we also have a gift for you: free marketing. We will promote you and your business on all our social media channels (and our partners in the startup ecosystem will promote you too)! As a bold woman taking action to grow your business, you deserve it!

​​

The 6-week Fuel Your Startup Bootcamp program will help you start strong and grow faster.
