Peers in your field

The women in your field you’d actually text.

Not a contact to work, not a lead to follow up on. Peers: women who do what you do, get the hard parts without a long explanation, and are glad to hear from you. Kinhive introduces you to them, a few at a time.

    How are you pricing retainers this year? I keep second-guessing mine.

    Ha, same. Let’s compare notes Friday?

    Trade notes for years

    Pricing, clients, burnout, wins. The stuff you can only really talk through with someone who does the same job.

Questions about finding peers

Something else? support@kinhive.com

What is a peer group for women founders?+
A small circle of women at a similar stage or in a similar field who trade advice, share what’s working, and support each other. On Kinhive, it grows one introduction at a time instead of through a formal program.
How does Kinhive find my peers?+
Choose “peers in my field” on your profile and tell us what you do. Kinhive looks for women in similar work, at a similar stage, or facing similar problems, and explains what you have in common.
Is this a mastermind?+
No meetings to schedule and no fee. It’s introductions to women you’d want to know, plus a community feed for questions and a coworking room for company.
Do I have to be a founder?+
No. Freelancers, operators, designers, engineers, and marketers all find peers on Kinhive.
Is it free?+
Yes. Kinhive is free to use, forever.
