Goldup, the program dedicated to helping women start their first online business, is now open for applications in Paris.

Why? Because you need this to (finally!) kickstart your online business
Who? Women, in the mood for learning new things
What? 5 Saturdays, to learn all the basics: mindset, knowledge, tools & putting them into practice.
When? June 29 to July 27, 9:30am to 4pm
How? Talks, exercises and community support

Lady,

If you’re reading these lines, it’s because you’re somehow interested in launching your own business. Welcome ;)

You may have an idea (or not), you may have a business and some clients (or not) — you want to learn and grow.

At The Family, we’ve been accompanying hundreds of entrepreneurs for more than 6 years. My team and I know what founders go through and how to help them. And we LOVE doing this.

The goal of Goldup is to provide the basics you need to dare to start your own business online, with 3 simple ingredients:

💋 (1) Talk
Saturday morning, you attend a one-hour talk by my team, in order to get all the keys on: idea and execution; sales and clients; the product or service; automation tools; growth and organization.

🔥 (2) Practice
You’ll learn how to do it yourself, for your own business, getting constant feedback from the team, your peers and clients. Demonstrations will take place in a cool way, to show achievements and progress.

💎 (3) And a very cool crew of women
The participants (Goldies) are selected based on two things: motivation and generosity. So you can count on them to be the kind of peers you need for support, fresh ideas and feedback.

✅ The types of things you’ll learn at Goldup?
- How do I validate that my product or service interests any client?
- How do I launch the very first version of my business?
- How do I create a unique and memorable brand?
- How do I learn from my community of users?
- How do I build a sustainable business from day one and grow steadily?
- How do I choose the people I want to work with?

❌ Goldup is not for you if…
You’re a serial entrepreneur willing to build a billion-dollar startup, or if you’ve proven that you have traction and want to raise funds with investors. Why? Because The Family is already waiting for you in that case! Apply here.

The team of “teachers” is the perfect badass mix

- Erika: She’s the boss of The Family in Paris. She has learned how to sell anything to anyone. Like an anaconda, she knows how to squeeze targets until they just want to say yes.

- Maud: She used to work at Dropbox, in their communications team. She studied sociology and she’s fond of storytelling. She knows what angle can turn a boring pitch into a marvellous and thrilling story.

- Jeddi: He’s the kind of guy you want as a cofounder: agile, talented and sweet. Jeddi knows everything about dropshipping and e-commerce, he will share all of the magic tricks he’s learned by building his own profitable businesses.

- Emilie: She’s been listening and learning from hundreds of ‘office hours’ between our startups and directors of The Family. She started her own women’s community to help them gain confidence and train their pitches. She will share all the business secrets — the frameworks — that let you think like an experienced founder.

- Maxime: Maxime knows how to build websites and automate processes without a single line of code. It’s not complicated, but he has already tested all the tools out there to select the best ones for your business.

- Camille: She’s the queen of Swag. The Family’s identity is so fresh because of her. She’ll share all the tips you need to create your own identity.

And me: You can count on me to share my support, enthusiasm and network with you.

🧒🏽 If you have kids, let us know, we have a nanny.
😎 Finally, during lunch, some special guests will join us, and they’ll always be a delicious surprise.

Why is Goldup dedicated to women?
Because I know how boring it can feel to be the only woman in a meeting room. When you’re taking a risk, when you’re trying to achieve something that looks impossible, you don’t need to feel like you’re having to prove that you’re as smart, as capable or as strong as men. The pressure is already high enough!
And because, as a woman, I know that something MAGICAL happens when you’re surrounded by other women. We need it. It’s like travelling — every time you dare to take a break, don’t you always say to yourself: Why didn’t I do this earlier?

Goldup costs 690 euros.
The spots are limited and selection isn’t automatic: it’s based on your motivation and good vibes. You just have to fill in a simple form and jump on a call with Marine. Marine is really cool, so don’t be afraid - she’s the head of Goldup, the one who launched the very first session in Berlin two months ago. She’s been doing a fabulous job at selecting the 1st participants and running the program. The goal of the call is to help you see if Goldup is the program that’s made for you.

🇫🇷 🇬🇧The program might be in French or in English, it just depends on the Goldies who are coming ;)

What are you waiting for? Apply!
