Women in Small Business: Now Is the Time!
It is actually a very wise decision to put your own career and your financial security in your own hands instead of those of someone else.
With the nation’s unemployment rate at ten percent,
and women’s unemployment even higher than that, everyone knows that now is not the time to go looking for a job. Employers aren’t hiring and unless you are completely overqualified, you probably won’t even get an interview. Wages are low, jobs are scarce, and prospects for improvement don’t look too good.
However, now for the good news! Women in small business, those that go out on their own and start their own business, are the most successful, make the most money, and are most certainly the happiest. They don’t have to deal with a boss who doesn’t appreciate them, they don’t have to settle for wages that are less than what equally qualified men are making, and they also can choose their own hours.
Women in small business right now are poised to make a lot of money over the next few years. With a combination of government grants and loans that are aimed to promote women-owned business and government agencies that are giving preferential treatment to these same businesses, you have a chance to take advantage of some very good options.
In times like these, when there are no jobs, not enough money to go around, and everyone is threatened with unemployment, making the move and starting up your own company is not as risky as it sounds.
Whether you start your own business at home on the computer, or you open up a shop downtown, you will find that women in small business in your town are supportive and will help you along the way on your road to success.
