Two established business experts have joined forces to launch The Founders Academy, a new online membership platform designed to help start-up and young business owners build strong, sustainable foundations in the two areas that make or break a business — marketing and finance.
A collaboration between Beansprout Consultancy, led by Chartered Accountant Helen Christopher, and The Little Marketing Company, founded by marketing strategist Lauren Troiano, The Founders Academy combines practical tools, expert insights and a supportive community in one accessible platform.
The platform provides members with structure and confidence to grow their business through:
- Monthly expert Q&A sessions tackling real-world marketing and finance challenges
- Guest speakers covering essential business topics
- Downloadable resources and templates to help members take action
- A community of like-minded founders sharing the same journey
Aimed at ambitious founders juggling every aspect of their business, The Founders Academy simplifies the learning curve, giving members clarity, confidence and control over their financial and marketing decisions.
“Many new business owners are incredible at what they do, but they often feel lost when it comes to managing money or promoting their business,” said Helen Christopher, co-founder of The Founders Academy. “We created this platform so they don’t have to do it alone — it’s about empowering them to make smart, confident decisions that drive growth right from the start.”
Lauren Troiano added: “The recipe to business success really is understanding your finances and your marketing. We’re passionate about supporting start-ups and those scaling side hustles so they feel informed and confident in running their businesses successfully.”
The Founders Academy is open to start-up and young business owners across the UK. Membership includes access to live sessions, exclusive resources and a growing online community.
