Did you know that 42% of all U.S. businesses are owned by women? It's true - according to The Motley Fool every single day 1,817 new American businesses are started by women in this country. Approximately 252 million women around the world are entrepreneurs. That's a LOT of hard-working, creative and motivated women out there... many of whom are also mothers, and a lot of whom support their own families.
Yet, women who start businesses often really struggle with the 'selling' component of their business; the marketing. They don't like being 'pushy' and they often feel uncomfortable with selling their services. There is a lot of research out there about why women in business don't speak up or ask for their worth, why they often feel imposter syndrome or fall into people-pleasing. It's a real dilemma for a lot of female business owners.
Catherine Watkin recognized this situation and understood that, with her background & experience, she could teach women to develop a real comfort with sales.

In today's interview we dig deep into how Catherine developed her expertise. She also shares a lot of great insights to get female business owners started on their journey of becoming great at marketing and making offers in a way that doesn't feel 'icky!'
