HerStartup

Over the last four months, we ran 𝗙𝗨𝗡𝗗𝗛𝟯𝗥, a female crowdfunding pilot. We put our money where our mouth was and raised funds for women-led businesses. We backed female founders when so many wouldn’t. 𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗲 𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗻’𝘁 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗰𝗿𝗼𝘄𝗱𝗳𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴. And that’s okay. What we 𝘥𝘰 love - what we’ve always done best - is helping female founders 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁, 𝗳𝘂𝗻𝗱, and 𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗲𝘀. That’s our core, our expertise, our bread and butter. And now, we’re doing it 𝗯𝗶𝗴𝗴𝗲𝗿, 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿, and 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝗯𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲. 🚀 FUNDH3R is now HerStartup. A name that reflects exactly what we do: ✔ 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗽 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝗿 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗳𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀 - providing expert guidance, investor matching, and the right tools to build a business that lasts. No overpriced consultants, no scattered advice - just real, ongoing support for one simple monthly fee. 💡 𝗛𝗲𝗿 𝗛𝘂𝗯 - a brand-new, 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝘃𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗼 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗰𝗲 with bite-sized, actionable insights on the topics that matter most. From fundraising and branding to scaling and investor readiness, we drop new videos every week. Have a topic you want covered? Request it, and we’ll make a 𝘃𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗼 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂 (or your website). On us :) 💰 𝗙𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲𝘀 𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗲. We focus on 𝗶𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝗳𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝘆, and 𝘀𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗽𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀, making sure female founders get the right funding 𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲.

✨ That’s a Wrap on the FUNDH3R Crowdfunding Pilot! ✨ To the incredible women who took part in the UK's very first female crowdfunding pilot - thank you. For trusting us, for putting yourselves out there, and for showing the world what’s possible when women back themselves, and each other. We are so proud that we got to help you raise funds, and we can’t wait to see where your businesses go next. To everyone who pledged, shared, and supported from the sidelines - we appreciate you. Every pound, every repost, every word of encouragement made a difference. Because when women fund women, we don’t just build businesses - we change the system. This is just the beginning. 🚀 Stay tuned for what’s next - better, smarter, and more accessible funding options for women in business. Because the gender funding gap isn't going to close itself. #fundh3r #womenfundingwomen #crowdfunding #womeninbusiness #funding

💡Founder Tip: Regular Money Check-Ins Are Non-Negotiable As founders, we often celebrate growth metrics - onboarding more clients, hitting new revenue milestones, and outperforming the previous quarter. But just because more money is coming in doesn’t mean your financial systems are keeping pace. If you’re still operating under the same setup you had before growth, you might miss opportunities or, create inefficiencies. That’s why regular money check-ins are essential. Taking time to review your financial systems helps you: ✔️ Adjust to growth: If revenue has increased, set aside more for reinvestment, savings, or scaling strategies. ✔️ Spot inefficiencies: Are your expenses creeping up? Are certain areas draining resources without delivering ROI? ✔️ Optimise for the future: Make intentional decisions about where to allocate funds to fuel growth, whether that’s hiring, marketing, or product development. Success isn’t just about bringing in more revenue - it’s about knowing exactly where your money is going and making it work harder for your business. Set a recurring time to review your financials, analyse your cash flow, and realign your systems. It’s not just smart - it’s essential for long-term sustainability. How often do you check in on your finances? 👇 #startuptips #money #growth

Are you a serial entrepreneur?

🌟Funding Female Entrepreneurs🌟 When we launched FUNDH3R in November, our mission was simple yet ambitious: to transform how women access funding - whether through #crowdfunding or securing #investment from other sources. In just a few months, we received over 200 applications from passionate female founders. While we’ve helped some incredible businesses raise funds, we’ve uncovered a cold truth: many businesses aren’t ready for funding. Our true strength lies in helping them get there. Raising funds is not just about having a great idea or pitch. Most startups need the right tools, guidance, and structure to become “funding ready” before they can secure investment - and that’s where we excel. What We’ve Learned: ✅ Success takes time, strategy, and dedication tailored to each founder’s goals. ✅ Investors need clarity and confidence. A solid business plan, realistic financials, and a compelling story are critical to win them over. ✅ Support is key. Founders don’t just need funding - they need strategies, workflows, mentorship, time and clarity to thrive. Where We’re Headed: We’re doubling down on what matters most: empowering women to get funding ready with a comprehensive approach. 🔹 Startup Services: Strategic tools and guidance to bridge the gap between early-stage businesses and investment readiness. Explore services here. https://lnkd.in/eVjwgrPz 🔹 Mentorship & Coaching: Helping women overcome internal barriers, build confidence, and gain the clarity needed to grow their businesses. Learn more. Explore coaching and mentorship here: https://lnkd.in/eNzxWd8B 🔹 Investor Matchmaking: Expanding our network to connect prepared founders with the right funding opportunities. 🔹 Leveraging AI: Streamlining processes like campaign setup, analytics, and investor outreach, while keeping the human touch central to everything we do. Our growing team includes: 👉 A services team dedicated to helping women become fully funding-ready. 👉 A dedicated crowdfunding team focused on running fewer, highly curated campaigns designed to deliver maximum impact. 👉 An investor matchmaking team focused on connecting founders with the right investors. #2025 is the year we change the game for female founders. Together, we’re building a future where women have the tools, support, and opportunities to succeed.💪 If you'd like to partner with us to provide value and expertise to female founders on their funding journeys, email partners@fundh3r.com

The Female Wealth Algorithm Webinar Jaskiran (founder of Finance Therapy) and I (founder of FUNDH3R) share an unwavering commitment to cutting through the noise and giving women practical, no-BS advice on building sustainable businesses and fostering the kind of financial mindset that makes it possible. We believe that true financial #success begins with two things: a solid understanding of financial literacy and an honest look at your own relationship with #money. Without these, you risk running into the same challenges - both in your business and in your life - time and time again. This isn’t your typical “save money” or “fix your mindset” webinar. It’s an honest conversation about the things that really matter: uncovering the habits and patterns that shape your finances, clarifying your goals, and taking meaningful steps towards building wealth and finding contentment. How we'll do this: 👉 We’ll Help You Start Where You Are: No matter your financial situation, this is your chance to take stock and get clear on your starting point. No sugarcoating. Just a baseline to grow from. 👉 You’ll Learn Systems That Actually Work: Managing money doesn’t have to be exhausting. We’ll walk you through smarter, easier ways to manage your finances, make confident investments, and create opportunities that scale. 👉 It’s About More Than Money: Building businesses and wealth isn't just about money. It’s about what that wealth allows you to do. It's about finding your "why". Join us: 📅 Friday, 24th January 🕔 5:30–6:30 PM 💻 Sign up at www.fundh3r.com/webinars
