We set out with the goal to help as many vegan businesses as possible with our knowledge and raw enthusiasm for the vegan business scene, which is why want to make our content available to as many people as possible.

However, many companies want to support our mission, which is why we also have our member and patron tiers to fund the work we do.  In return, we give these members access to our wider community and extra events and support.

Yes you can!  All members and patrons get a welcome 30 minute 1-2-1 with Lisa and David so that we can get to know you and find out more about your business.

For ongoing support, you can ask Lisa and David for their support in our Slack community hub, our forums or you can join our live business clinics to talk about your business with Lisa & David in a small group.

Because we are based in the UK, many of our members are European – but we also have members from New Zealand, Japan, Canada, the USA, Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia and many other countries!

However, we like to say it is our veganism that brings us all together as business owners rather than our geography, so we have events that cover all time zones.

Not at all! Vegan Business Tribe is run by a couple (Lisa & David) and a number of our members are the same.  If you run your business with a partner, friend or family member then you are welcome to join all our live events, business clinics and networking events as a twosome!

We cover funding extensively in our content and have interviewed a number of experts and investors about funding a vegan business for our members. We have even run our own crowdfunding programme for members!

If funding is your biggest question at the moment then talk to us about this in your welcome 1-2-1 as a member and we will signpost you to lots of information for where to start.

Live events are accessible to all our members and patrons.  Just log in, head over to the events page, select your event and click the calendar link to book.

You will receive a Zoom link (and reminders before the event) after you book.  If you would like text reminders, remember to add your mobile number!

Our marketing course is part of our full membership (both the member and patron tiers).  You will find a link to start it in your member’s dashboard after you sign-up.

Yes, you can!  If you need help with a topic or have a specific question relating to that section, post a question at the end of the chapter and Lisa or David will respond with their thoughts.

You can even read through everyone else’s questions (and Lisa & David’s answers) on that chapter to get even more insight.

You can control all your account settings, including cancelling your membership at any time yourself, from your membership dashboard.

Note: if you cancel your membership it will remain active (ie you will still have full access) until your next monthly renewal date, at which stage you will be downgraded automatically to the fan tier.  If you have any issues with your subscription please email hello@veganbusinesstribe.com

Yes, just go to your member’s dashboard (visible once signed in) and click on ‘account settings’.  Under the ‘payments’ menu option you can download an invoice for each month.

We regularly interview members for both the website and our monthly business feature we write in Vegan Food & Living Magazine.

However, we look to highlight the best of vegan business.  That does not mean the biggest or even most successful, but those who are TRULY REMARKABLE.  If you have a specialist skill that you think other members would benefit from learning about, or have an amazing story to tell – or if you think we’ve never seen a vegan business like yours before – then please let us know at our initial 1-2-1 chat as a member or patron.

Note that we only feature companies that are vegan, or owned and run by vegan founders.

We love our members suggesting new topics for us to cover and regularly ask in our Slack group what people want to see. Do feel free to share your idea for a topic in our Slack group.

We don’t have an ‘interview’ podcast format, all our episodes are instructional on how to build a successful vegan business. On rare occasions we produce an episode with someone who is a specialist in their field; these are run in a workshop format to help up-skill vegan business owners and vegan entrepreneurs.

However, we do hold panel discussions a few times a year, and if you think that you might be a good fit for a particular topic which would specifically be helpful to vegan businesses (eg funding, market research etc) then do let us know and we’ll keep that on record if a place comes up in future. Note that you must be vegan yourself!
