In just two years, Miss EmpowHer grew into a 30,000+ member community — without spending a cent on ads. Using offline experiences to drive digital momentum, founder Caitlyn Kumi scaled Miss EmpowHer from a personal side project into a national women’s empowerment community. By curating FOMO-worthy events that doubled as content engines, Caitlyn turned real-life connections into explosive online growth. This resulted in five sold-out NYC events, $10K+ in sponsorships from brands like Covergirl, and a private membership club that grew a 1,000-person waitlist in just three months. In this case study, Caitlyn reveals the event strategies that powered this exponential community growth.
