Femme Noire Launches, Offering Black Women Entrepreneurs a Program of Training and Mentorship for Starting Successful Businesses
Program provides community, empowerment, and skills building to support future female business leaders
ATLANTA—Femme Noire has launched, offering black women entrepreneurs a community and program of mentorship that trains and empowers its members to start successful businesses. The company, which is itself a black female-owned venture, is looking for women who are ready to enter the world of entrepreneurship. Prospective members could be in various stages of business development or exploring their options.
“Black and brown women are the fastest growing entrepreneurial U.S. demographic,” said Luna Clervaux-Morris, Founder and CEO of Femme Noire. “Black women are breaking barriers and achieving remarkable success; however, we know that the journey is tough. This is our purpose and mission: to provide you with a thriving community, personalized mentoring and access to valuable resources. Together we can make real change for each other.”
The Femme Noire program is structured to provide an effective mix of skills, mentorship, and networking—all of which are essential for success in business. “It’s not enough to know the mechanics of running a business,” Clervaux-Morris added. “You have to know whom to turn to for advice and opportunities. None of us can succeed by ourselves. We have to empower each other. That’s one of our core ideas.”
Specifically, Femme Noire guides members through an eight-stage training process, starting with the business blueprint. “What is your idea? Will it work? How will you make it work?” asked Clervaux-Morris. “These are core questions to answer before you move another inch forward. We help you get there.” After that comes education in the use of credit, skills development, finance, and legal contracts.
Participants will also learn to master the arts of sales and marketing through a transformative coaching program. Femme Noire further guides members through the certification process and navigating government contract applications.
Most program tracks require weekly or bi-weekly one-hour sessions with a Guide, while some may be assignments directed to each member or document requests or submission, based on the Guide’s needs to facilitate and help the member to complete each track successfully.
The program is open to black women all over the United States.
