About us
The Creatrix Coop Awards 2026
The Creatrix Coop exists because too much of the industry has lost its standards.
We’ve all seen it.
Directories filled with people who paid to be there.
Awards that reward budget, not merit.
Service providers overpromising, underdelivering, then disappearing when things get hard.
As women running our own businesses, we know how damaging that is.
We’ve lived the flakiness.
We’ve dealt with lazy outcomes.
We’ve paid for “experts” who weren’t.
The Creatrix Coop was created as a response to that.
Why it exists
We didn’t want to create another list of names or another marketplace built on fees and exposure. We wanted one place where business owners could come and feel confident that the people featured there actually know what they’re doing.
Not because they paid.
Not because they applied.
Because their work holds up.
So we made a clear decision early on. We don’t charge service providers to be listed. Ever.
The moment money becomes the filter, standards slip. And we’re not interested in building something that looks impressive on the surface but falls apart in practice.
How it works
The Creatrix Coop is curated, not crowded.
Every Creatrix is selected on merit and specialises in a specific area. One lane, done properly. No vague claims. No trying to be everything to everyone.
That way, when a business owner comes here, they’re not faced with an endless scroll of options or forced to guess who’s right for them. They can find exactly who they need, when they need them, and trust that the work will meet the standard promised.
Who it’s for
This space is for women who are building businesses with intention.
For founders who aren’t chasing shortcuts or quick fixes.
For women who understand that good work takes time and that lasting businesses are built through clear thinking and strong decisions.
It’s also for the women who support those businesses. The strategists, specialists, and leaders who care deeply about their craft and refuse to cut corners, even when it would be easier to do so.
Looking ahead
The Creatrix Coop will grow, but never at the expense of integrity.
More women recognised, more businesses supported and more visibility for work that deserves it.
But always with care, always with standards intact.
So, If you’re looking for the fastest or cheapest option, this probably isn’t the place... but if you’re here to build something that lasts, welcome! You’re exactly where you should be.
