The Female Hub offers you an incredible network of like minded women. Partner up with others, inspire them and get inspired and find new clients. Our awesome “Bubbels & Babbels” quickly became the most popular networking event in The Hague. Forget about lame and uncomfortable gatherings that are a waste of time. This is the only networking drink that is fun and useful!

What we learn with pleasure, we never forget”,
a quote once written by the American poet Alfred Mercier. And that’s great, because we have the perfect way to learn and boost your business in the most fun way possible this summer: The Female Hub Summer School. After a SOLD OUT edition in 2018, we are back with a new and improved version in 2019.
Are you an entrepreneur or do you want to start your own business? And do you recognize this:
… I have a lot of ideas, but I don’t know how to make them concrete.
… I keep making up excuses why this ‘isn’t the right moment’ to follow my dreams. I keep postponing it.
… I often doubt if I can actually do it and notice that I’m insecure about my work.
… I really want to take my business to the next level but I don’t know how.
… I don’t know how to tell my ‘story’. How do I make sure that I am visible and that I stand out between other competitors?
… I need a push in the right direction and would like to brainstorm with other entrepreneurs about what works and what doesn’t work.
Do you recognise yourself in these statements? Then don’t hesitate and follow the Summer School here to be the first one to get a SUPER early bird ticket. Ticket sales start on Wednesday May 15th.

We all have dreams. And 2019 will be the year to finally make these dreams a reality. Some of us dream of running a successful business, others of a quiet Bed & Breakfast in Spain… Maybe you are constantly thinking about a new job. Or you want to run a marathon. Instagram shows us the most beautiful pictures of people who already turned their dreams into reality. But what about your dreams?
Don’t worry, I (Suzanne Mau-Asam) know exactly how you feel. How difficult it can be to make your dreams come true. But I also know that it IS possible.
How do you make sure that your dreams turn into reality? That they don’t just stay dreams? That is what this masterclass is all about.
You will set your goal, make choices, a plan of approach and FOCUS. You discover your internal motivation and will learn how, step by step, you’ll get closer in reaching your goal. At the end of this masterclass you are ready to realize your dream within 90 days!
WHAT WILL YOU LEARN IN THIS MASTERCLASS?
- Reflection: to move forward, sometimes you first need to look back at where you are coming from. You will be challenged to think about your dream and WHY that is your dream.
- Making a vision board: you will visualize a “What if everything is possible?” dream life.
- Setting goals: How do you get from the “Everything is possible” dream life to SMART and realistic goals?
- Commitment and conditions: what do you need to realize your dream life?
- Fear and obstructions: You get insights into what refrains you from making your dreams come true.
- Making a plan of approach
ABOUT THE MASTERCLASS
This masterclass can either be joined “stand-alone” or as part of the Female Hub Summer School program. For more information about the Female Hub Summer School, visit the Doors Open Female Hub website.

In this masterclass you will learn in 2 hours that there are only 6 buttons you have to press in order to build a kick-ass brand. After knowing these buttons EVERYONE wants to buy your products or services.
Does this sound to good to be true? That is because it is…
There is no standard recipe how to build a strong brand. What works for one brand, doesn’t work at all for the other one. In this masterclass, you will work on your own recipe for success. You sink your teeth into these topics:
- A product for everyone is a product for nobody: you will be challenged to look critically at your target audience. Step by step you will determine who your ideal customer is. And that will be way more detailed than “30 year old women from The Hague”
- The pitch: You will craft your story. What makes your brand unique? How is your product or service different than your competitors?
- The competition: Speaking of competition… Who are your competitors? You will get eye-opening insights and will learn that your competitors are not always who you think they are.
- I am not on Snapchat. And that’s fine: you will make a solid plan which marketing channels will work for you.
- Plan, plan, plan: you will learn how to develop a solid campaign and content plan and why it is so important to start on time.
- How scary, I mean… How cool is this? You will discover that sometimes you need to get out of your comfort zone to build a strong brand. And you will learn how to do this.
- The essential tool kit. You will get practical tips & trics about which tools you can use to build your brand.
ABOUT THE TRAINER
This masterclass will be taught by Nathalie van Wijkvliet. If there is anyone who can tell you how to build a kick-ass brand, it’s Nathalie.

After a SOLD OUT first edition in April we are now organizing a second one!
One of the ways to generate more clients and more revenue is by blogging. There are even people who earn their full income through this and can therefore work completely/partially location independent. Even if it is not your goal to become a digital nomad who shares his/her travel adventures online and is able to earn their next ticket to another tropical destination by doing this, blogging can be a very interesting method to attract more clients and generate income.

Under Nathalie van Wijkvliet’s guidance, you’ll get started on the basic principles of succesful blogging. Even if you have never written a blog before you can join this masterclass!
MASTERCLASS CONTENT
- No more uninspired moments: this is how you’ll get good ideas
- Let’s get to 10.000 visitors: how do you make sure your blog gets read?
- Making the ultimate blog calendar
- Clever writing: 1 blog = 10 social media posts
- Useful tools that bloggers use everyday
- Six ways to use money with your blog

After the masterclasss, you will go home with lots of new ideas and a concrete plan of action to make your blog successful.
WHO IS THIS MASTERCLASS FOR?
You should definitely join this masterclass if you:
- Are an entrepreneur and want to attract more customers
- Are interested in location independent work and want to know how you can earn money whilst abroad

Algemene voorwaarden, opdrachtovereenkomsten, copyright, de AVG, een werknemerscontract. Als ondernemer of ZZP-er wéét je dat het belangrijk is om je juridische zaken goed geregeld te hebben, maar…
- Het is saai.
- Als je het zelf moet doen kost het veel tijd. En die besteed je liever ergens anders aan.
- Als je het uitbesteed kost het geld. En dat besteed je liever ergens anders aan.
- De documenten staan vol met termen waar je niks van begrijpt.
- Je vraagt je stiekem af of het wel écht nodig is. Hoe groot is nou de kans dat er iets mis gaat?
Wij snappen volledig dat je zo denkt. Maar geloof ons, dingen ACHTERAF goed proberen te regelen is nog veel saaier, stressvoller, duurder en tijdrovender. Tijd dus voor een masterclass om te voorkomen dat jij straks denkt “had ik maar…”
In deze praktische masterclass laat Karin Verweij zien dat het allemaal helemaal niet zo ingewikkeld is of hoeft te zijn om je juridische zaken netjes geregeld te hebben. Ze praat je bij over de belangrijkste veranderingen in wet- en regelgeving voor ondernemers en ZZP-ers en daarna ga je onder begeleiding van haar aan de slag met je eigen juridische documenten.
Je gaat naar huis met:
- Inzicht in welke juridische zaken je goed moet regelen. En wat er kan gebeuren als je dit niet doet.
- Up to date kennis over de laatste wet-en regelgeving die relevant is voor jou
- Een gerust gevoel dat jij op korte termijn alles goed geregeld hebt voor jezelf en je bedrijf
- Een handige juridische checklist
Over de trainer
Karin Verweij is advocate met een bijzondere aanpak: ze wil ervoor zorgen dat ondernemers geen advocaat nodig hebben. Een advocaat bel je namelijk vooral als er dingen mis zijn gegaan. Door je zaken van te voren goed te regelen, is de kans dat je een advocaat nodig hebt vele malen kleiner. Karin maakt juridische zaken begrijpbaar en behapbaar voor zowel startende als ervaren ondernemers en ZZP-ers.
Kosten
Early bird: €49
Regulier: €69
Deze kosten zijn exclusief BTW en aftrekbaar voor de belasting. De kosten zijn inclusief goodiebag, een hapje en een drankje en het werkboek behorende bij de masterclass.
Deelnemers
Let op! Er is plaats voor maximaal 15 deelnemers. Claim dus snel je ticket, nu het nog kan! Groepen worden bewust klein gehouden om zo voldoende aandacht aan iedereen te kunnen besteden.
