I applied for the Micro to Millions program through Count Me In, an organization dedicated to helping women entrepreneurs grow their businesses. It was a rigorous application process, involving preparing financials for 2006, 2007, 2008 year to date, and projected year-end 2008. I also had to answer questions regarding management/industry experience, target market, marketing plan, and much much more.
From the Count Me In site:
Woman-owned businesses under two years old and/or under $250,000 in annual revenue can apply for the Micro to Millions award — up to $5,000 dollars in financing, plus coaching, marketing, mentoring and more.
I got the call last week that I’ve been awarded a Micro to Millions package, which I’ll be presented with on Wednesday in Seattle after an orientation and walkthrough Tuesday afternoon. I’m so excited. I’ll have to fill you all in on the event next week!
I really appreciate everyone’s support. It’s been an exciting endeavor.
