Entrepenures In Tech

In my role at GoDaddy, I co-founded the employee resource group ‘Entrepenures in Tech’ to support colleagues with side hustles. I organized events that brought people together and helped them grow professionally. Helping cultivate a vibrant online community where members could share ideas, resources, and support. My graphic design contributions significantly enhanced the visibility and impact of our initiatives, driving increased participation and collaboration for aspiring entrepreneurs within the company.

In the Slack channel, I initiated daily and weekly activities to keep the community engaged and motivated. One popular feature was the “Question of the Day,” where I posed questions focused on different aspects of side hustles. This encouraged members to share their experiences, challenges, and insights, fostering a collaborative environment.

Additionally, I introduced the weekly “WIP (Work in Progress)” post, giving members a platform to showcase their projects, receive feedback, and celebrate their progress. This not only helped individuals refine their ideas, but also built a supportive network where colleagues could inspire and learn from each other. Through these efforts, our Slack channel became a vibrant hub for entrepreneurial growth and connection.

 

Beyond the Slack channel, I organized and hosted various events to further support our members. I collaborated with other ERGs to create inclusive and diverse events, expanding our reach and impact. Some of the key events I led included:

  • Webinars and Workshops: I hosted sessions focused on essential entrepreneurial skills, such as social media strategies and “How to Brand Your Business.” These interactive workshops provided practical tips and valuable insights, helping members enhance their online presence and brand identity.

  • Networking Events: I organized meet-and-greet sessions where members could connect with like-minded colleagues, share their entrepreneurial journeys, and form potential collaborations. These events fostered a sense of community and encouraged knowledge sharing.

  • Guest Speaker Series: I invited successful entrepreneurs and industry experts to share their experiences and insights with our group. These talks offered inspiration and practical advice, empowering our members to pursue their business goals with confidence.

Through these events, I aimed to create a dynamic and supportive environment where entrepreneurial-minded employees could thrive, learn, and connect. My graphic design contributions played a crucial role in promoting these events, ensuring high participation and engagement.
