Beauty Builders Club - Monthly
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.
