This is something bugging me for a long time.
How can we support small scale women entrepreneurs, people who do business from home - like, say, artificial flowers or making cupcakes or something like that? Or say jewelry making or selling from their home?
I am not just talking about how they can sell more stuff nor am I talking about digital organizers or Project Management apps (like Basecamp or whatever). But holistically, how can we support this group of women, who can definitely become a global market force and contribute to both local and national / international economy...
Not everyone is of the Tik Tok generation (and I honestly don't know how useful that is, how much it translates into sales), but what are some ways we can help small scale women entrepreneurs? Any ideas??
Go Local! Shop local. That is a sure shot way.
I think what we need is a directory of some sort, listing all local women entrepreneurs. It must be sorted via geography, what they are selling etc. And then efforts made to promote this directory and push people to buy local. People go to Amazon because it is easy.
But they may choose local if it is just as easy. Maybe not 2 day shipping or even free returns, but if it is easy they may do it...also, if you are online, you can also reach greater audiences...
