Why Franchising Needs Women
| |
| That there are differences between men and women should not come as a surprise to anyone. That those differences would be a consideration and even a key method in determining whether or not a person would have greater success in the franchise world seems to be more than shocking it’s downright politically incorrect. |

Old Mutual and South Africa’s Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) Launch $12.9m Microfinance Initiative, Isivande Women’s Fund (IWF)
| |
| The Department of Trade and Industry of South Africa has teamed with Old Mutual Group’s Masisizane Fund to launch the Isivande Women’s Fund (IWF), financing women-run enterprises in the country. The new fund is the result of a 2006 study conducted by the DTI’s Gender and Women Empowerment Unit, the International Finance Corporation (IFC), and FinMark. The study found that although women are more responsible managers of credit than men, they only receive 30 percent of loans, with black women receiving the least funding. |

Are You Too Big for Your Britches?
| |
| I have seen, to my dismay, many women in business put themselves upon a pedestal and snub peers whom they consider to be of no use to their business. They feel that they are more of a true woman business owner than some other women, basing this all on the type of business the other women own and run. These women in business are making a huge mistake, in my opinion. Not only are they losing potential networking opportunities and a chance to learn valuable lessons, but they are also creating a bad reputation for themselves. |

How Smart Women Stay Busy
| |
| I have the good fortune to spend meaningful time with a lot of smart women who keep me on track about what’s going on in women’s lives. One topic that resonates with many of these women (and with me) is the idea of busyness. It is vital that we as women take the time to explore what provides us with meaning, energy, and passion. Whether we are married or unmarried, with children or without, we all have the same number of hours in the day. We can spend those hours doing things that energize us. |

Women and Men are Different: Financially Speaking
| |
| Men and women think differently, especially about money. Although both men and women are concerned about security; many women think about what money represents, where men tend to think of what money can buy. There is no right or wrong, we just think differently. Money has no gender, anyone, man or woman can earn, spend, save or invest it. The results of a survey of 1,000 spouses conducted for Money Magazine, found men and women had dramatically different ideas about who does what with the family finances and what is important to their partners. 27% of men believe their wives think having the right investments is very important. Yet nearly half of the women surveyed say it is important. 45% of men say that having cash for emergencies is very important to their spouse, when in reality 67% of women believe it's crucial.

Women Entrepreneurs: Tips for a Prosperous (and Sane!) Business
| |
| While studies show that both men and women are interested in financial freedom, women are more likely than men to cite “greater work-life balance” as an additional motivating factor in starting a business. A new study from Jane Out of the Box, an authority on women entrepreneurs, reveals a significant segment of women in business who’ve achieved their dreams of financial success, but who tend to be overwhelmed by the day-to-day demands of their business. This article provides important “Do’s” and “Don’ts” for duplicating the prosperity of the market segment known as “Go Jane Go”-while creating better balance in life.

Women Entrepreneurs Setting the Pace
| |
|
Women today, have a much more entrepreneurial, gutsy spirit, than they did 40-50 years ago. I have been a successful entrepreneur since 1986, and I have seen for myself the number of women that take bold step into the world of entrepreneurship, often driven by the desire to spend more time with their families, and these women are setting the pace for what is possible, for women and men alike. |

4 Reasons Women Entrepreneurs will Thrive in the New Economy
| |
| It’s no secret the major shift in the economy has forced us to stop and take stock of our lives, turning our livelihood – including the global business market - on its head. This is especially true for single women and single moms who do not have the luxury of dual-incomes to help soften the blow. With the worst of economic shakedown behind us (so it seems), many women are left to wonder where to go from here?
Ideals surrounding traditional careers are changing, if not completely dissolving. Today, women are taking control of their destiny and financial wealth by becoming entrepreneurs. With the focus shifting from Corporate America to Entrepreneur America, it is projected that small businesses will lift the U.S. out of the current recession into a new economy supported by entrepreneurs – not corporations. |
