Did you know that of more than 10 million women-owned businesses in the U.S. only about 3% earn a million dollars or more annually? (Three times that number of male-owned businesses do the same!)
Did you know that women only gained the right to have a banking account and hold a credit card in their own name (without a male co-signer) 30 years ago?
Last question: did you know that Friday, 12 May, is the deadline for women who want to enter their business in the 2006 "Make Mine a $Million Business" program?
I learned all this and more over at BusinessWeek's "Minting Women Millionaires" article. Go check it out!
Thanks Melonie... it would be fun to see if you could link your site to this group because it would make a brilliant exchange for these good ideas.... What do you think?
