About the Founder

Lover of family and friends. Wanderlust at heart. Avid collector of memes and gifs. Believer in all things yet to be seen. 

Welcome to 9:90 Collective founded by Francoise "Fran" Bonaparte Carroll. Fran attempted to return to the employment world after a 7 year absence after working full-time as a Stay at Home Mom.  She had a desire to build a company that would fit her lifestyle (income, flexibility, and creativity). She had countless conversations with other moms who felt that the market lacked opportunities that authentically supported the modern day mom.  Through these conversations, she launched 9:90 Collective!

9:90 Collective is about:

• Women taking the lead.
• Women being forces to be reckoned with.
• Women creating businesses (services or goods) that solve a problem.
• Women creating a story that works for them and their families.
• 9 women over 90 days working collectively!

Research showed that many women are unable to launch startups based simply off of the inability to access resources (time, intellectual skills, funding, and support). 9:90 Collective aims to bridge all of these needs to support 9 women accelerating the launch of 1 business in 90 days.

9:90 Collective was founded out of the idea that we are stronger collectively than individually.

Fran is based in Atlanta, GA where she has been married to her college sweetheart, Milton. They have 3 kids (Addison, Nora, and Micah).
