It’s no big secret that running a business is, well, hard.
But running a business as a woman (and a parent, partner, caregiver, or anything else)? Even more so.
From marketing to managing employees…
From managing your finances to raising capital…
From serving (and sourcing!) clients or customers to staying organized…
There’s a lot that goes into running your own business.
But though so many of us women feel like we have to tackle it all on our own, here’s the truth:
You don't need to do it alone.
'
What you need is a supportive, engaged community that “gets” it. The opportunity to connect with potential collaborators, referrers, and partners. And access to resources and expert training from the founders who have “done” it before.
Plus a single, go-to place to find it all.
And that’s where The Entreprenista League comes in.
You don't need to
do this alone
As women in business, our days are filled with challenges. From developing and implementing a solid marketing strategy to gaining the financial backing your business needs (not to mention the domestic burdens that often fall on women), it’s common for women to feel overwhelmed and alone on their journey.
What you need are support and resources. What you need is a community.

Paving the way for women founders
One member at a time
When we first started our agency, Socialfly, we proactively joined every community we could find. We needed to get press, score new clients, scale our operations, and connect with successful founders. But we quickly realized there was no one community that offered everything women entrepreneurs need.
The Entreprenista League was born out of our passion for connecting others and helping women in business succeed.

Co-founders of Socialfly and Entreprenista
