Robin's Roses Scholarship

Build your best business. Live your best life.

Entrepreneurship is for everyone.

Applications are open for our 4Q 2025 scholarship.
The deadline to apply is September 30, 2025.

At the Indie Business Network, we help you build your best business and live your best life — you can have both! Here's how we help you get them:

Weekly virtual Coffee Meetup + Coaching with our founder, Donna Maria (Coffee With Donna Maria)
Bi-monthly LIVE Group Focus Meetings to help you stay on track to achieve your goals
Quarterly LIVE Planning Sessions to help you identify goals
Private Entrepreneur Member Community for ongoing support and encouragement 24/7
Discounts on ingredients and supplies
Access to liability insurance (for products and services) and support and service of your policy
Entrepreneurial training library, including our signature Indie Business Blueprint

We believe in the power of entrepreneurship to transform lives. We also believe that entrepreneurship should not be confined to traditional notions of business ownership. We believe that every woman can provide for herself and her children because she can sell something she made with her own hands.

That’s why IBN's mission is to empower women to maximize their potential through small business ownership. It was our mission in 2000 when we started and it is our mission today, a quarter century later.

We are an entrepreneurial training and coaching company serving Makers and Artisan Entrepreneurs.

Our members are American Makers from all across North America, and our mission is to help them and their businesses thrive.

We work hard to provide our amazing members with a truly valuable and transformative experience. In doing so, we recognize that not everyone has the financial means to access IBN's array of entrepreneurial mentoring, coaching, and training services. To help offset the financial challenge for as many as possible, each quarter, we offer a scholarship for a year of membership in the Indie Business Network. It's our way of making the support we provide accessible to even more people.

At least one scholarship is awarded quarterly. Click here to meet recent scholarship recipients.

Each scholarship is for a year of membership, which includes business coaching and entrepreneurial training provided by founder, CEO and Lead Mentor Donna Maria and the Indie Business Network team of Guest Entrepreneur Mentors!
