There are many myths about entrepreneurship that can reinforce stereotypes, one of which is that only men want to grow their businesses. Kathleen and Ann bust open this myth and teach listeners the facts about female entrepreneurs and their desire to compete with the big boys. Listen in to their discussion about how women entrepreneurs can position themselves for growth, obtain venture capital, and overcome roadblocks they may face in the process.
Key Take Aways:
Women entrepreneurs are interested in growing their businesses but typically approach the growth process differently than their male counterparts.
Research shows that venture capitalists and bankers ask business owners different questions based on gender and these inquiries influence how funding is provided.
Both women entrepreneurs and the financial services professional who work with them need to learn how to communicate in a more gender savvy manner and how doing so is a win for both their businesses and their clients.
