THE SUSS CLUB
Start Up Success & Support
Start or grow a business that changes your life.
Expert coaching, mentoring, & strategy support
for your business, your wellbeing, & what's next.
Get the tools, community, & confidence to build with purpose, supported every step of the way.
Built for real life. Built for you.
Low-cost. High-touch. No catch.
IN A WORLD THAT LOOKS AWAY,
WE SEE YOU
We see you building quietly behind the scenes.
Notebooks full of ideas, dreams half-formed, with nowhere that truly fits.
Doing it alone, not because you want to, but because support always seems out of reach.
Too expensive. Too exclusive. Too far removed from your reality.
You’re the one with the ideas burning in your chest and nowhere to land them.
The freelancer talking to the walls while others ask, “When are you gonna get a real job?”
WE SEE YOU...
The start-up founders navigating isolation and second-guessing.
The ones told to hustle harder while doors stay closed. Shut out of the “good stuff” because of the price tag.
You show up to the masterclasses, the challenges, the webinars.
Hopeful. Open. Ready to learn.
Then comes the pitch:
“Just put it on a credit card.”
Or worse — the shame of being made to feel like you’re failing just because you can’t “invest in yourself.”
We’ve been there too. And we’re not playing that game.
We don’t want others playing it either.
We’re disrupting an industry that’s told too many people, “You can’t sit here.”
We stopped knocking.
We built our own table, and we say: “Pull up a chair and join us. You belong.”
WHAT’S INSIDE THE SUSS CLUB
This isn’t just a membership....
It'S your:
Mastermind
Strategy support system
Accountability partner
Tech and business lifeline
Community that gets it
WHAT'S INCLUDED:
Live coaching and expert mentoring
Resident tech and business support
Workshops, co-working, and daily support tools
Real accountability and a space that grows with you
A flexible, people-first model built for real life
And it’s all backed by research.
Online support networks are proven to improve resilience, mental wellbeing, and business outcomes, especially for founders building solo. (Chen, Meurer & Mittal, 2021–2024)
THE SUSS CLUB IS YOUR SPACE
This isn’t a space that asks you to be louder, faster, or someone you’re not.
It’s a space that meets you where you are and grows with you.
Whether you haven’t started yet, you’re figuring out your first offer, or you’ve been doing it solo for years, you’re welcome here.
This is where strategy meets soul.
Where big ideas meet real-world support.
Where community feels like an actual connection, not just another login.
If you’ve been trying to piece it together alone, this is your place.
You don’t have to do this by yourself anymore.
WHY THE SUSS CLUB EXISTS
Traditional business support comes with a catch:
It costs thousands
It’s designed for profit, not people
It leaves too many locked out of the room
We’re here to change that.
No one should be priced out of coaching, mentoring, strategy, or community.
As a Community Interest Company, the SUSS Club is about people and purpose, not profit.
This is Community. Impact. Change.
It’s not just a tagline — it’s our model.
Every penny goes back into people, projects, the community, and you.
HOW WE HOLD SUPPORT
The SUSS Club isn’t just built on good ideas.
It’s built on evidence, experience, and a belief that support should be both practical and professionally held.
OUR MODEL IS SHAPED BY FOUNDING FUTURES CIC
And guided by our founder, Karen Taylor, an ICF and EMCC Accredited Master Coach, experienced strategist and trainer, and holder of an MA in Coaching & Mentoring Practice.
As an integrative practitioner, NLP Master Practitioner, mBIT Master Coach and Trainer, Karen weaves in the power of neuroscience, systems thinking, and holistically informed modalities.
WHAT WE BRING
Over 30 years of real-world leadership and business experience
Resident tech and business supporA science-backed, trauma-aware, evidence-informed approach
Nature-led tools and space-holding that honour how humans really grow
This sits behind every tool, every session, every space we hold.
Because support should be accessible AND exceptional.
This isn’t just a good idea; it’s proven to work.
Recent studies show online social support directly improves resilience, decision-making, and venture survival, especially during uncertain times. From reducing stress to boosting long-term success, the right kind of support changes everything. (Mittal et al., 2024; Meurer et al., 2021; Chen et al., 2024)
WHAT OUR COMMUNITY SAYS
The SUSS Club and Founding Futures CIC may be new, but the support behind them isn’t.
Karen has spent years coaching, mentoring, training, and supporting hundreds of people through business strategy, personal growth, and community-powered programmes.
Now, that same evidence-based, people-first approach sits at the heart of everything we’re building.
WHAT YOU GET AS A FOUNDING MEMBER
This is your place.
You don’t have to do it alone anymore.
This isn’t a “log in, get overwhelmed, log out, forget it exists” kind of space.
And it’s definitely not just another membership.
Mastermind
Strategy team
Accountability partner
Cheerleader
Challenging friend
And your community — all in one
You don’t need more noise.
You need structure, support, and space to make things happen.
This is about implementation and having people beside you while you do it.
It’s live, hands-on, co-created support.

ACCESSIBILITY & EQUITY
Even at founder rates, we know some people are still locked out of support.
That doesn’t sit right with us.
We’ve created subsidised and funded places (by application) for those who are ready to build, learn, and contribute, but can’t currently afford to join.
This isn’t charity.
This is equity.
This is Community. Impact. Change.
This is us.
And it means someone who would otherwise be left out has a chance to step in.
Because this is about people and purpose, not profit.
Because support should be accessible to all who are ready to show up and build.
BE A FOUNDER. BUILD IT WITH US AND SHAPE THE FUTURE
We’re in the build phase.
This isn’t a polished, pre-packaged product with all the bells and whistles.
This is a living, breathing, community-led space.
FOUNDERS DON'T JUST JOIN...
They build. Share feedback. Influence what’s created. Help design a platform that works with you, and for you. And because you’re getting in at the ground floor, you’ll also receive:
Access at the lowest price, locked in for as long as you stay
Direct connection with Karen and the core team during the build
Opportunities to co-create content, sessions, and tools you actually need
First access to new resources, upgrades, and ideas as they launch
A voice in shaping a movement — not just joining a membership
Because we’re building this with your challenges, hopes, and honest feedback in mind.
This is your invitation to grow with us, from the inside out.
And when the portal is fully grown, you’ll know it’s rooted in people just like you, because you helped shape it.
Evidence shows community-led, online support reduces burnout, improves wellbeing, and increases business success
(Chen, Mittal & Meurer, 2021–2024).
This isn’t just community, it’s a catalyst for real, measurable growth.
THIS ISN'T JUST A COMMUNITY, IT'S A CATALYST FOR REAL, MEASURABLE GROWTH
The SUSS Club brings together everything Karen has offered in other settings, coaching, community, strategy, and accountability into one flexible, affordable space.

If you’re ready to build momentum, share your expertise, and be part of community-powered change:

GOT QUESTIONS? WE'VE GOT YOU
Because asking is part of building something real.
WHO IS THE SUSS CLUB FOR?
Quiet doers. Creative thinkers. Founders just starting or those who are a few years in.
It’s for people who want to make a difference, through their work and in the lives they touch, but who’ve been locked out of traditional support by price or polish.
If you believe in community, impact, and doing things differently, this is for you.
CAN I JOIN IF I HAVEN'T STARTED MY BUSINESS YET?
Absolutely – SUSS will be perfect for you. If you’ve got the spark, we’ll help you shape it into something solid. This is a space to figure things out, with support every step of the way.
WHAT IF I HAVE ALREADY STARTED MY BUSINESS?
Perfect. Many members already have businesses; they’re just tired of doing it alone.
You’ll get fresh tools, renewed strategy, and support that meets you where you are.
With co-working, collaboration, and real opportunities to grow your network, this space works just as well for you, too.
IS THIS ONLY FOR CERTAIN INDUSTRIES OR BUSINESSES TYPES?
Not at all. Whether you’re building a creative business, coaching practice, social enterprise, or something in between, you belong here.
HOW MUCH TIME TIME DO I NEED TO MAKE IT WORTH IT?
You don’t need hours. This is designed to fit your life. Whether you have 10 minutes or a full afternoon, you’ll find what you need and no pressure when you need to step back.
WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT FROM OTHER MEMBERSHIPS?
This isn’t a content dump or “watch when you can” library.
It’s real, live, interactive support. Strategy, mentoring, tech help, focus time, and community, all under one roof. And it’s built with you, not just for you.
CAN I CANCEL AT ANY TIME?
If it’s not the right fit, you’re free to leave. We hope you’ll want to stay with us, but understand life changes. No contracts, no pressure. You can manage or cancel your membership anytime in your portal
WHAT IF I CAN'T AFFORD IT RIGHT NOW?
That’s precisely why we created subsidised and funded places, because access shouldn’t depend on income. This isn’t charity. It’s equity. If you’re ready to show up but cost is a barrier, [apply here]
IS IT JUST FOR WOMEN?
No. This space is open to anyone building with purpose, kindness, and a desire for change. If that’s you, come in.
