2009-09-20 03:33:00
On Aug. 25, I attended an annual Chicago Women's Entrepreneur networking event, courtesy of Sr. Account Executive Robert F. Wimberly II, and met so many women business owners and aspiring women business owners, including fashion experts, internship recruiters, lawyers, health experts and bank owners. When I was in college, I helped write and edit a business plan for a Chicago music company called MidWest Incorporated, and the more I talked to the owner, Phillip Cavil Sr., the more intrigued I became at owning my own business someday. And my favorite restaurant in all of Chicago is Quench!, owned by Quentin Love. I'm fascinated with those who are brave enough to branch out and start their own company--from hiring employees to...

2009-06-24 14:47:00
These days it is becoming a very common trend to host a business online. By means of having a business set up online, the businessman doesn't have to leave his desk at home at all to be able to make money. Working at his leisure is another advantage of home businesses. The ideal home business is designed mostly for women entrepreneurs who want to make money from their homes. Especially when you consider women with small children, they find it very difficult to be able to go out and look for a job, instead they can just go online and check out the possibilities of making money and in fact even having their own trade without a physical trading outlet is pretty easy.Now am sure what I just said got your attention.

Here is an example of someone who started their own busineess:One woman knew that her ad-agency job wasn?t safe. Clients weren?t renewing their contracts, no new business was coming in, and her workload as a public-relations officer was light. Plus, she was low on the totem pole, since she?d only been there for a year. When the ax finally fell in mid-December, she regretted not starting her job search earlier. Days turned into weeks as she tried to get an interview.And then an unexpected opportunity fell into her lap. She got a bunch of inquiries about a sideline she dabbled in occasionally: photography. ?When I got laid off, I didn?t really expect to start my photography business full time,? says the 28-year-old who studied photography at a University in San Francisco. But when she got the inquiries, ?a light went off when this happened. This was it. This was what I?m going to do. Ever since then, I?ve been working nonstop.?|Her first step was to revamp a Web site she had set up,...

"Change can be daunting, but the status quo can be worse." – Birthing the ElephantLooking at the cover of Birthing the Elephant: The Woman’s Go-for-it! Guide to Overcoming the Big Challenges of Launching a Business (2008) did not prepare me for the influence it would have in my life.Finally! Someone wrote a business book with guts! Finally someone had the courage to say out loud "Launching your own business will take its toll on your bank account, your self esteem, and your family." They didn't gloss over the mistakes people make in business as if it is expected and so trivial that the mistakes only merit a few paragraphs.The authors of this little book, Karin Abarbanel and Bruce Freeman, seem to have been following me around in my head for the last three years while I helped my husband launch and stabilize his business and explored and launched my own. They described the ups and downs of business as stages. Hearing that they were stages was comforting to me – that means that...
Equality of Opportunity not Results

Endeavor Turkey's 2008 Entrepreneurs
2008-08-26 14:03:00
At the beginning of the summer, Endeavor Turkey announced its 2008 Endeavor Entrepreneurs. I felt that covering this story not only reflects the tenacity and success of Turkish entrepreneurship, but also proves the existance of hot deals for venture capital and potential acquisition. Indeed, it is no mystery that some of Endeavor's 2007 winners, which I wrote about, had no problems with securing continued funding, were acquired, or had sufficient growth in the year that followed the award. In another example, AirTies, one of Endeavor's 2006 winners, after the award, secured $3.1 million from four angel investors. Endeavor provides selected entrepreneurs with customized services from highlevel business mentors, Fortune 500 consulting firms and top U.S. business schools. The goal is to help these entrepreneurs scale their businesses and reach their highimpact potential. The 2008 Endeavor Turkey's Entrepreneurs are: Artesis – Ahmet Duyar: It's product, the MCM (Motor C...

How Empowering Beliefs Shape Successful Entrepreneurs
2008-06-02 16:10:00
Every business owner wants their business to be a success and perhaps even build an empire from that success. If you really want your business to excel and to achieve every aspiration that you have, do not even think ?Failure is not an option,? because as soon as you let that thought crossed your mind you have already opened the door to failure. Your belief must be that ?the only option is Success? ? the achievement of what you are after.The way you think and the thoughts that you let into your mind will determine how your life manifests itself. Making sure that you have empowering beliefs will not only change the way you perceive the world around you, but it will also impact the success of your business. Know this: ?Always think in the positive.?Some people may argue that ?failure is not an option,? is a positive affirmation, but is it right to say that not wanting to fail means wanting to succeed and hence it is a positive statement? No it isn?t, it is negative and here?s why. Whe...

GreenMango: Marketing platform for small entrepreneurs

I had covered an Indian Startup few months back called Babajob and was thoroughly impressed with its idea and execution. I would call them "A startup with a noble cause". GreenMango is another Hyderabad based startup in similar mould. GreenMango is started by 2 women entrepreneurs - Nandini Narula and Yasmina Mccarty. It was born to cater to two challenges faced by the working poor: information paucity and market inaccessibility. GreenMango is designed to provide tailors, electricians, carpenters, domestic help and all other working poor labour in urban India with a platform to demonstrate the quality of their work and earn a fair price for their services. While babajob was more of a job site for poor working class, GreenMango is a platform to demonstrate their work through personalized storefronts for them.
