Poppin’ & Mixin’ Kidpreneur Founding Family Beta Application

Become a Founding Family

We've shown you what we’re building. Now we’d love to learn a little about your family.

We’re inviting a small group of families to become the first to experience the Poppin’ & Mixin’ family business concept from the very beginning.

As a Founding Family, you won’t just be starting your own popcorn business together. You’ll also help us shape the experience for the families who come after you.

This application should only take a few minutes. There are no perfect answers. We’re simply looking for families who are excited to try something new together and help us build something great.

Which activities do you think your kids would enjoy?

Starting a Real Business

The Founding Family Beta is designed to be simple and beginner-friendly. You do not need business experience. But we are looking for families who are willing to actually try the business — make the product, offer it for sale, learn what works, and tell us about the experience.

Which statement sounds most like your family?

We’re ready to jump in and try it

We’re excited, but we’ll probably need guidance

We’re interested but would want to move slowly

We mostly want to learn about the idea before committing

Making Time for It

How much time could your family realistically dedicate to this in the beginning?

If we gave you a simple first challenge — for example, prepare your first products and make your first few sales — how likely would your family be to actually try it?

Helping Us Build It

This is a beta, which means your feedback is extremely important. We’ll occasionally ask Founding Families what worked, what didn’t, what their kids enjoyed, what felt confusing, and what we could improve.

How willing would you be to give us feedback throughout the experience?

Would you be willing to participate in occasional short surveys or check-ins?

Yes

Probably

Maybe
