Uniting Canadian Cosmetics and Bringing it to the World
|
Beauty Builders Club is our new founder cohort created to bring cosmetic entrepreneurs together—and give you real, steady support while you build. After 10 years of working one-on-one with founders through the Canadian Cosmetic Cluster, we’ve seen the pattern over and over: running a product business can be exciting, but it can also be isolating. You’re making decisions across formulation, packaging, claims, cash flow, marketing, retail, and growth—often with no one in your day-to-day who truly understands the pressure. Beauty Builders Club is designed to change that: a small room of founders who “get it,” guided by the Cluster, with practical conversations that lead to action. This cohort runs January to April, with weekly 60-minute sessions throughout January, February, and March (12 sessions total), followed by an April wrap-up period for momentum and next steps. We keep the group intentionally small—only 10 founders per cohort—so everyone has space to participate, ask questions, and get meaningful input. Each week we tackle one key topic with clear takeaways you can apply immediately, and the side benefit is big: you build relationships with other founders that often turn into collaboration, referrals, and genuine support. We’re not here to compete—we’re here to build together. The weekly topics are built to be practical and founder-focused, including 2026 trends and what’s changing, ingredients and innovation, packaging that sells (and works), regulatory and claims, brand positioning and messaging, marketing for repeat purchases, launch planning, trade shows and selling in person, and export readiness—including how to approach markets like the U.S., Europe, Africa, South America, and Asia, and which trade shows and pathways make sense depending on your category and stage. We also cover the “make-or-break” topics founders actually need: cash flow management, forecasting, inventory planning, payment terms, grant readiness, and hiring and building support—so you finish the program with a clear strategy, not just inspiration. Pricing: Beauty Builders Club is $200/month (billed monthly for three months). If you pay upfront for the full cohort, it’s $150/month—a total of $450 for the three-month program—and you save significantly compared to month-to-month. Spots are limited, and cohorts are intentionally capped at 10 founders to keep it high-value and genuinely supportive. If you’re ready to grow your brand in 2026 with structure, community, and expert guidance—this is your room. Beauty Builders Club - Full Payment - Jan-April 2026

Our goal with Beauty Builders Club is simple: bring founders together and provide real support. For the past 10 years, most of the Canadian Cosmetic Cluster’s work has been one-on-one with founders—helping people solve problems, make decisions, and keep moving. But we also know something else is true: founders don’t have to do everything alone, and there is huge value in learning side-by-side with other people who truly understand what it’s like to build a product business from the ground up. This cohort will run January to April, with weekly 60 minute sessions on Saturdays at 9 am or 3pm EST throughout January, February, and March. It’s designed for founders who are doing it all—building products, managing cash flow, handling marketing, trying to stay compliant, and still keeping the business running. That kind of work can be isolating, and sometimes what you need most isn’t another task list—you need perspective, shared experience, and a room where you can listen, learn, and feel less alone. Every week we’ll tackle a different issue, in a practical way, so you leave with insights you can use immediately. The Club is also about building supportive relationships—partnerships, referrals, encouragement, and accountability—because we’re not here to compete. We’re here to build together. Together we’re stronger than alone. Topics We Cover Week 1 - 2026 Trends + What’s Changing Week 2 - Ingredients and Innovation Week 3 - Packaging That Sells (and Works) Week 4 - Product Roadmap and Scale Up Week 5 - Regulatory & Claims Basics (Canada + global mindset) Week 6 - Brand Positioning + Messaging That Connects Week 7 - Retailers and Distribution Week 8 - Launch Planning (pre-launch → post-launch) Week 9 - Trade Shows: Choosing, Preparing, Following Up Week 10 - Export Readiness: U.S. + EMEA + South America + Asia Week 11 - Cash Flow, Forecasting, Inventory Week 12 - Grants, Funding + Hiring — and Your 90-Day Plan Pricing Beauty Builders Club is $200/month (billed monthly for three months). If you pay upfront for the full cohort, it’s $150/month—so $450 total for the complete three-month program, saving you a significant amount compared to paying month-to-month.
