The Mona Lisa Story

Renaissance Marketing Group Founder, Sydney R. Dozier, started Renaissance Marketing Group in 2014 at 22 years old. While her business background as the Marketing Director of The Johnny Cash Museum in Nashville certainly gave her a strong foundation of knowledge for social media, business strategy, and PR, she often yearned for a mentor to “pick their brains” for various business questions and strategies as she was learning to navigate the world of entrepreneurship. Meanwhile, RMG continued to grow and expanded its offices from Atlanta, GA to Nashville, TN. One day, Dozier hoped, she might serve as a role model and mentor for young female entrepreneurs because she had a hard time finding mentorship and community as a young female entrepreneur in the early days of Renaissance. She always knew she wanted to lend a helping hand to women at the beginning of their business journeys.

After seven years of serving hundreds of businesses, entrepreneurs, and non-profit agencies, Renaissance Marketing Group is thrilled to announce the creation of The Mona Lisa Foundation that officially launched in 2021.


Through an application screening process, The Mona Lisa Foundation selects and supports female entrepreneurs in the Greater Nashville area that are in need of mentorship, resources, and grants for their businesses. The goal of the Mona Lisa Foundation is to provide women entrepreneurs with the education, resources, network, and financial support that Sydney wished she had when she started her business almost a decade ago. We aim to inspire, educate, and empower women on their entrepreneurial journeys.

 

Our Mission

 Our mission is to support and accelerate women in Nashville on their entrepreneurial journeys through mentorship, grants, education, and community.

Mentorship

Our Mona Lisas are matched with mentors who can support and guide them in all areas of their business from accounting, social media marketing, hiring, operations, and more.

Grants

Our organization provides grant money to women business owners who are in need of financial support for marketing, general business expenses, or to help them overcome financial hardships their business has faced such as the Covid-19 Pandemic.
