For years, women have
struggled with balancing work and life. Women are realizing that
working hard will not take them to where they want to go. We are
constantly looking for ways to streamline our efforts to find more
time, and additional resources, to find that balance.
Lifestyle Selling for
Women is more than a mindset, it is a reality. This proven
step-by-step system is uniquely designed for women entrepreneurs
and selling professionals. Based on the principles of
TheRevenueBuilder® it breaks the entire sales process down into
three simple steps.
Let’s Start
with the Facts
Sales is one of the most
rapidly expanding fields in the United States, with about 12
million people currently in sales positions. Fifteen years ago, few
people were enrolled in sales courses. Today, women outnumber men
in college sales courses.
Women of all ages are
increasingly turning to entrepreneurship. There are 10.4 women in
the United States that are self-employed. 70 percent of women in
the US are responsible for all private start ups.
In the United Kingdom, 70
percent of women started their business because they wanted more
flexible working conditions. 75 percent of these women said
work-life balance is better when running your own
business.
In Canada, the Center of
Women's Business Research reports that 60 percent of
self-employed women are “Lifestylers,” a term used by them to
describe business owners who have chosen self-employment
specifically to balance the demands of work and family. 70
percent of Canadian female entrepreneurs are married and nearly
one-third have children under the age of twelve.
Being in business provides
a unique means of control. It can shape the life of a person, both
professionally and personally, in a very positive way. Women are
increasingly taking advantage of the opportunity to be
self-employed. Catherine Swift, president of the Canadian
Federation of Independent Business predicts that more than
1,000,000 women in Canada will be entrepreneurs by the year
2010.
Women Take
Control
Over the past three years,
310 of every 100,000 immigrant women started a business, compared
to 220 of every 100,000 of women born in the United States – a
difference of 41 percent. Immigrant women are more likely to start
their own business in order to have greater flexibility in raising
their children and to avoid the barriers that exist in traditional
employment.
Women in Canada make up the
largest share of the self-employed workforce than any other country
in the world.
Many women entrepreneurs
are staying small because they want to. Of the companies
exclusively women-owned, 81 percent are without employees. The
stress and demands of growing a small business into a giant one
often conflicts with other priorities. The same applies to women in
employment. Often these women will pass up promotions or full-time
employment to balance their work and personal lives.
However, they still want to
make money. Traditionally business earn revenue in one way:
Selling. Today's women entrepreneurs want to make money with less
stress, in less time so they can enjoy life.
