If you think you're at a disadvantage as a female entrepreneur, think again. Many organizations and programs have emerged in recent years to help Women start and grow their own business ventures.
Take advantage of the programs available to help you:
1. Obtain seed money to get your Business off the ground
2. Exchange ideas with other women business owners
3. Win bids for government contracts
4. Find further resources to assist you in starting or growing a venture
Action Steps:
Locate a program. Whether you're seeking a loan to expand your company, looking for discounts on business services, or hoping to find a mentor who can help you launch a fresh venture, there's a program for you. Make connections by mentoring and networking with other women entrepreneur's .
Finding a mentor can increase your confidence and give you the knowledge you need to start a business. Networking can be equally invaluable as a way to promote and build your business. I recommend:
