We’d love for you to follow along! We promote our blog posts and event news on social media as well as in a monthly newsletter format that comes to your email inbox. You can find our social feeds, RSS feed and newsletter signup on the top of any page on our website!
We are happy to talk to anyone who has attended one of our in-person events about becoming a contributor. We feel that those who have attended an event have the best understanding of our audience and are those that can best write content that appeals to our readers. We ask for a commitment of one article per quarter. Being a contributor is a non-paid position, although contributors do receive certain perks.
To discuss becoming a contributor, please contact Katelyn Whelan.
We do not publish sponsored content for which The Southern C is not involved or which does not involve our events. Examples of past sponsored content includes, but is not limited to, travel articles after The Southern C team visits a location and/or local businesses, as well as content that showcases our event sponsors. Sponsored content reflects our corporate pillars of entrepreneurial education, networking and lifestyle inspiration, just as our regular blog content does.
If you would like to talk with us further about a blog post, please contact Katelyn Whelan.
Thank you! We love our photographers and are so happy to share their names. Over the years we have used the following professional photographers. Tell them The Southern C sent you!

We love sitting down with entrepreneurs as both a sounding board for new ideas and pivots, and to share advice based on our experiences. If applicable, we also have a wide network of service professionals and fellow entrepreneurs that we can recommend based on your needs to help you move forward in accomplishing your goals.
To request a meeting, whether by phone or in person, please email us at teamtsc@thesouthernc.com and give us an idea of the type of conversation you’d like to have. Our Co-Founders, Cheri Leavy and Whitney Long are available for consult for a per-hour fee.
Also consider joining membership, where you can learn from fellow TSC members in mastermind groups, discussion forums and educational webinars with subject-matter experts.
Whether it is taking on more employees or hiring tax and legal help, we love it when members and alums want to hire within our amazing network! This opportunity is available through The Southern C Membership where members are able to post and share job opportunities with fellow members.
We love a good collaboration! Please contact us at teamtsc@thesouthernc.com with the subject line “Collaboration Request” and a detailed description of your proposed collaboration idea.
We receive this request a lot, and our member directory through our membership offering helps facilitate interested parties finding one another and collaborating!
We receive this request quite often as well! Our member directory through membership is also a resource for locating products made by Southern C members.
Our mantra is #connectcollaboratecreate, so we love it when entrepreneurs get together in support of one another. Through membership, our directory and calendar on our website help facilitate members connecting with one another, both online and in person, and we also have member chapters in different cities to facilitate regular meetups.
You can follow The Southern C on Instagram, Facebook and Pinterest under the @thesouthernc handle.

What is #ispytscsummitalums? It’s our hashtag to highlight TSC Summit alums connecting and collaborating. We do a monthly round-up in our newsletter of our alums featured in the media (print, digital and podcast) and collaborating with each other. This hashtag on social is our best resource! We are a small but mighty team, so please don’t pre-pitch us items for promotion through #ispytscsummitalums. This hashtag is all about the organic celebration of connections made and all the awesomeness that results.
If you’ve been featured in the media or collaborating with another alum, email us here so we can include you in our monthly roundup on our newsletter, blog and social media.
The member forums are a place for members to connect on a variety of entrepreneurial and lifestyle topics. We ask that members take political discussions offline and always expect members to be respectful, courteous and PG.
The member calendar is a place for members to post their business events and gatherings. Advertised events should be open to any member attending, or if there is a fee to attend, should be clearly stated. We ask that members refrain from posting political gatherings or non-business-related events on the board.
Currently, we’re capping membership at 325 members. We want to continue to provide an intimate community for our members much like the atmosphere at the Summits.
This exclusive benefit allows members to provide discount codes, specials, and other perks specific to their business or company that encourages other members to do business with them. These perks could be an out-of-the-blue sale, a holiday shopping code, or a year-long discount code for members. As a member, this also provides you the special opportunity to take part in great deals while supporting the amazing businesses of fellow members!
