It’s crazy to think that Founders’ Network has been up and running for just over two months now. We’ve already had some amazing successes including the launch of our Founders’ Breakfasts and several engaging webinars. Not ones to rest on our laurels, November sees the launch of our Entrepreneur in Residence programme.
Every fortnight you’ll have the opportunity to ask one of Entrepreneurs in Residence (EiR) any questions you have on their areas of expertise. We have EiRs with knowledge on building multi-million pound businesses, harnessing your digital marketing strategy and making sure you stay in the black.
Unlike our other content, this is solely for our members and none of the content will be published on our public channels. So if you want to access our EiR programme, sign up to Founders’ Network!
So how does it work?
Well very similar to our webinars. We’ll be hosting the EiR Office hours via our Member Facebook group (so make sure you are a member of the group if you’d like to participate!), and we’ll be using Facebook Live to stream live video.
If you want to ask a question, simply write it in the comments box and I’ll be able to ask it. It’s that simple.
