Small business ideas for women is the same as small business ideas for men. Sure, there are jobs that women are not attracted to, same goes for men in their career choices. Sometimes we get fooled or surprised at many career choices in our society regardless of gender.
Recently, our family was traveling to TN and standing in the road at a construction site was a young lady holding the STOP sign managing traffic flow. Sitting up in the BIG cab was a lady handling loads of dirt on the mountain filling dump trucks all day long. Another lady was walking with blueprints, giving orders to guys with shovels. The picture has changed across the world with gender a non issue.
Executives used to have personal secretaries, no longer. Most of us have computers, printers and are doing our own typing and secretarial duties. In my home based business it simply makes good economic sense. Fortunately, learning to type was a good decision long ago.
Statistics indicate that women are dominating college enrollments across America. There is a hunger in many industries for women to lead the field in highly technical jobs. Colleges are filled with female students in the legal, medical and engineering degree programs with continued success.
However, not all women are college bound, same for men. There’s nothing wrong with getting a college degree if you are focused on training [education] in a field of personal interest. Unfortunately, too many students are in college without any ideas for a job or even a career path. Too many families go into unnecessary debt because the idea of needing a college degree has been oversold.
There’s nothing wrong with education and we encourage it. However, if it puts your family into financial risk and stress without a plan then maybe a vocational choice is a better idea. Never take on debt or get loans without a good reason with future value. Learning a specific “trade” to earn a living, assuming personal responsibility is far more important than getting a college degree to hang on your wall.
Business College is an excellent choice vs liberal arts. A home business is our Plan B and we recommend it to everyone we meet. Working at home, running your business, is not for everyone. However, there is value in having a secondary source of income even if you have a corporate position.
Our goal is to introduce you to the training that’s available where you can make personal choices. The Internet is your ticket to understanding and choice. Research is key to making good choices in how you earn money and build financial security.
Home based business owners are focused on Internet Marketing.
