Have your own small business? Ever dream of owning one? Want to excel at your corporate job? Whatever sort of success in business you have in mind, Michelle can help!
Michelle spoke a lot about the differences between men and women in the workforce. Men tend to be more assertive, risk takers. Women are more compassionate, not wanting to overprice their products or to self promote too much. We also take failures very hard. Where men tend to not take things so seriously and move on to the next project or product. Women may also 'hedge' their language as Michelle says. We soften our language by saying things like, "I'm not an expert but..." "I'm not 100% sure but..." "...that's just what I think", etc. STOP doing that! Be confident and excited. This will close the deal!
Another huge aspect of being successful is learning how to build a good brand for yourself. How do you stand out? Make your brand sticky and leave an impression on people. For more information on this and to watch videos on creating your own brand, visit www.makethembeg.com.
Lastly, Michelle spoke about saying no to business. You don't have to take every single job that comes through the door. You have the right to say no. And when you do, you are actually empowering yourself and your brand. You have to value your own time and work before other people will value you.
Lots of good information for women entrepreneurs!
