£150k raised
Joy Foster started an award-winning social enterprise helping women to upskill with social media and digital marketing skills in 2015.
After equipping over 100 women with digital skills, through a mix of online and in-person training, Joy realised she needed to get external investment to take the business to the next level. Her extraordinary funding experience started with feeling stressed from trying to manage the business without external investor involvement, to being told she was worth investing in. This fuelled her to have the courage to think big and go for it. She raised £150K from a female-led group of investors and is now scaling her business for the next stage of growth.
In this episode you’ll discover…
- How to know it’s the right time for external investment
- Why you should be confident when talking money
- How to think big and then act upon it with courage
