With Small Business Saturday right around the corner, there’s no better time to shine the spotlight on the incredible women entrepreneurs who are slaying it on Etsy. As you prepare to find some one-of-a-kind gifts this holiday season, why not support women-owned businesses in the process?
The Importance of Women-Owned Businesses
Breaking the Glass Ceiling
Women entrepreneurs are vital in the business landscape, especially in online platforms like Etsy. Supporting women-owned businesses helps shatter the proverbial glass ceiling, giving more women the chance to succeed in a competitive marketplace.
Supporting Community
Research shows that women are more likely to reinvest profits into their communities and families. This ripple effect makes a big difference in the long run.
