For local businesses ready to get off the ground.
The Rogue Sisters Foundation exists to strengthen local economies, one real business at a time. This program backs builders: owners who intend to succeed and do the work. If that's you, and marketing is the part you haven't built yet, this application is for you. It takes about 10 minutes.
What every applicant gets, free: an honest assessment of where your business stands, and a step-by-step launch roadmap you run yourself, built on free tools wherever they exist. This is a map, not a rescue. We draw it, you walk it, and it works because you do. Each quarter the Rogue Sisters Marketing team also builds hands-on with a small number of accepted businesses, shaping their launch brand and first web presence at no charge. Those slots are limited, so every applicant leaves with a real path either way.
What it costs. Applying is free. The assessment and roadmap are free. Some software has no free version, and we name those costs before you spend a dollar. For most launches the minimum is a domain name, about $15 to $20 a year. Simple website hosting, when a launch needs it, runs another $5 to $25 a month. We never recommend a paid tool without telling you the price and the free alternative when one exists.
