GirlswithGoals.com Launches a Women’s Ecommerce Business Community

Spotsylvania, VA, December 12, 2007 --(PR.com)-- GirlswithGoals.com launches a website designed to help grow the women’s business community. GirlswithGoals.com features an ecommerce marketplace with online storefronts, business resources, success stories, video commercials, monthly contests and a community forum for members to ask questions and share advice.

“With GirlswithGoals.com, we’ve created an ecommerce and social platform for women who are starting or growing a business that can’t be found anywhere else,” says Erin Hurry, Founder of GirlswithGoals.com. “Unlike other websites that lets women post a listing or leave a signature post about there service or product, ours stands completely on its own, is fully supported by the latest Web 2.0 features with offering a call to action directly on our site.”

Nationwide, women-owned businesses have grown steadily in each of the last ten years. This calls attention to the success-minded individuals who are dedicated to igniting their business and, according to Hurry, fueling their souls. “They’re women too independent to oblige by the 9-5 corporate world, women who value and love their independence in creation, women dedicated to fulfilling their roles as both mother and professional, and women who are not afraid to make their own mistakes and fearless in picking up the pieces,” she says.

Women-owned firms in the United States provide jobs for 18.5 million people and generate sales of nearly $2.38 trillion annually. Women now make up 41 percent of the individuals with a net worth of $500,000 or more proving a positive of the need for a community tailored specifically for women entrepreneurs.

Hurry emphasizes on the importance of recognizing the success of women in entrepreneurship. “Becoming a female entrepreneur does not only reinforce the importance of a woman’s position in society,” she says. “But it also makes greater progress towards overall economic and social development. Women are responsible for the achievements of increased economic growth, improved productivity, improved distribution of income, and improved employment rate, that’s why we need to support these Girls with Goals.”

On the new website, women business owners or women who are thinking about starting a business can access business resources to help them launch their startup and take them through every step of their business growth. The website currently has six business coaches who are experts in their field, published authors and successful business owners who’ve faced and conquered many of the business challenges other women face.

In addition to the coaches, members can set up an online storefront with no up front costs to sell their products and services. Visitors who access GirlswithGoals.com can shop the online marketplace view video commercials and support women in business. Members are able to contribute their own success stories ask the columnist a question, enter monthly contests, send out g-cards to their customers and connect with other members.

With the website’s business resource center and downloadable workshops, members are able to gain access to marketing tools, business operating forms and marketing templates.

“We have built into the site so that it is easy to navigate and is engaging to our members and visitors. We are enhancing the look to launch with our new 2008 features.”
