Yesterday, we had our Flower Arranging Class All-Girl Event by @flowstatefloral.atx, and it was so much fun!! Thank you Flow State Floral for an amazing workshop 💐 & thank you @hopsquadbrewing for hosting us & for providing a complimentary beer 🍻!

Ladies💖, I hope you had an enjoyable time, and thank you so much for stepping out of your comfort zone to meet some new ladies! We hope you made some connections & start building some friendships with the ladies you met! 🫶🏽 💫 Some tips guidance to help grow those possible friendships: 💞Make sure to get some sort of contact info from the person you vibed with (instagram, phone, etc.)- it can be scary to ask, but we super encourage you too! 💞 Suggest to create a group chat with the girls you met & make a potential plan within the first 1-2 weeks 💞 Don’t be afraid to reach out to the girls you got contact info from! It never hurts to ask if they want to meet up or ask in the group chat if anyone is free to do something for that weekend or the next week. 💞Sometimes plans fall through or the group chat gets silent & maybe you never get to meet up, and it does suck, but unfortunately, it’s common & you’re not the only one experiencing this. It is not YOU! It IS difficult to not only make friends but keep them, but keep trying! You are not alone!! Keep coming to events, make an introduction post on our FB group, comment on intro posts of other ladies, keep an eye out on ladies trying to make plans on the FB group, check out the FB group chats or Geneva group chats once in a while & see who wants to meet up! 💐What other suggestions do y’all have on how to make friends or build those new connections to eventually become friendships? Hope this helps!! 🫶🏽

This book is not just a book to me, I hope it sparks a movement of women building a future that uses tech for good. A future where women come together and set aside ego and build together. The future can be brighter, we just need to build it! As I solidify the book tour I have secured some amazing sponsors and supporters to host events, swag bags and more. I am looking for a few more if you are interested in supporting a movement that is so important right now, to get women building the future. 🫶🏼Are you a female founder with a product that you want to get into the hands of other women in our swag bags at tour stops? 👩🏻💻Are you a tech software that wants to get in front of female founders and business owners? 🦾Are you a company that wants to show that your brand supports women innovating and building the future? Message me to see if a sponsorship or collaboration for my 13 city book tour makes sense for you! #femalefounders #womenownedbusiness #sponsorshipopportunity #booktour

Let me first and foremost say, I LOVE events and see their value. I frequently attend events and won't ever fully stop going to them. In the summer of 2022, I averaged 3 events per week and connected a lot of that effort to the subsequent growth of the Scroobious brand and top-of-the-funnel awareness. However, I'd be lying if I said I haven't become more intentional and selective about which events I attend, and I'd be doubly lying if I said it hasn't been one of the better things for my personal and professional priorities. It sometimes feels like events have become a "rinse and repeat" feature in the startup ecosystem, both general cocktail hours, and of course, those focused on diversity. Allison Byers (and our whole team, hi Erica Kangas) and I frequently talk about how underrepresented founders sit and talk about why we don't get funding, while everyone else actually receives the funding. Ironically, March is Women's History Month, so this month is the biggest time of year for these rinse-and-repeat gatherings that lack true intention or value. While considering attending any event, I ask myself, "What am I getting from this?" Often, I can't point to anything concrete, and it's a signal to me not to attend. Though I'm not a co-founder of Scroobious, I'm close enough to the perspective of a founder to know that diverse founders aren't benefiting either. We're hearing the same infuriating stats, connecting with the same people, and not gaining any valuable connections or, better yet, money (investment or revenue) out of it. One of the reasons Scroobious structured our business model around working with service providers is that we contribute to every stakeholder's bottom line: intentional connections of value, measurable ROI, and a good time. So yes, let's stop with the events with women in the title but not in the planning or long-term outcomes. Happy Thursday, or as I like to say, a tease for Friday. 😊 https://lnkd.in/eRqQdnH5
