40 YEARS AGO
After the great celebration we had with 31 wonderful people and 7 fabulous speakers, I spent the next couple of days ruminating on the 40 years I have been in this business. I'm exhausted! 
It all seems like a dream to me. As most of you do I just put one foot in front of the other and do what is next to do. It is hard to go back over 40 years
and look at the accumulated impact I have had on many, many people worldwide.
There is a a part I vividly remember and that was at the beginning. In1979 I began the business in my living room at an antique roll top bankers desk
I had bought for $250 from a family in New Jersey.
I spent $150 on black and white stationary and business cards. It was a very small budget start up!
The exhilaration of getting up everyday to build the business was wonderful.Call me crazy but I knew it would be successful and I knew we would have a
long run. I knew if your companies could be successful so could I.
I spoke to anyone and everyone who would listen and I created a course I knew was needed even if I didn't exactly know how to market and sell it.
I developed a business plan and presented it to the bank we banked at in Colorado. I wanted a $22,000 loan. They turned me down and so did every other bank I went to.
Then I found out I was in good company. Women were rarely, in 1979, able to get business loans even with a house to use as collateral. We were clearly
discriminated against by banks and other financial institutions.
Then The Women's Bank opened in Colorado. Started by Mary Roebling, President of Roebling Bank in Trenton, NJ (my home town). It opened precisely to
give women who started businesses a chance.
By that time I already had revenue coming in but I changed my accounts to that bank!
By the way, Women are more successful at starting businesses then men.
The SBA and all the micro-loan organizations will tell you it's because we don't spend our money "willy nilly" when we start up. We start up small and
then nurture the business until we can afford an office, etc.
Then last week as I was celebrating my company's 40 year mark, I saw a front page article in the August 9-15 Pacific Coast Business Times.
It said, and I quote, "Some 27% of S&P 500 Corporate Directors are women but only 5% of Venture Capitol goes to women-owned firms"
Only 5% in 2019??? What the Hell? Have we not moved forward in 40 years?
Venture Capitol has replaced bank loans as the preferred start up financing and women cannot access it. Just like I could not access $22,000 in 1979.
The article goes on to say we need to crash this bias in venture capitol firms. Especially given women still have better business success then men do
with smaller amounts of money.
So as I celebrate my 40 years in business and my success I am cognizant of the work we have to do so that my younger sisters around the world have the chance I had. The chance to create a business and control their own and their family's
destiny!
