What do Women want?

I have no bloody idea what the answer to this question is. But I do know that when it comes to business and startups, women want a voice, and a chance to be heard. Last week we soft launched our Shoe String Women  section of our website. This has been designed to give women in the startup world a voice, a place to share ideas, opinions and personal stories via user submitted content. It is also a place to discuss, debate, relate and disagree on the forums underneath and have your opinion heard.

We are proud to partner with Women as Entrepreneurs as our partners for this initiative and are looking forward to hearing what you all have to say. And Gentlemen, if you have something you feel is applicable to contribute, don’t be shy!

Our site statistics show that 60% of our audience are females between 24 -45 and it is important to us to make sure that we keep our ENTIRE audience engaged, being a small group of guys we are conscious that a lot of the time our articles have the potential to steer down the path of male nerdiness. Which is not what we want at all.

So Ladies, Over to you -What do you want to see discussed? What fuels your fire? Who inspires you? How can your experiences help other women?

Let us know – There are over 10,000 female readers on this site that want to chat!

Mat really wanted to be an actor, when he was told that he was too fat for the part of the Red Ranger in an upcoming series of Power Rangers, he went to uni to become a counsellor, then he got shitty listening to people talk about their problems all day. So he started hanging around with entrepreneurs who solve problems. He liked them so much he started a website about them. Follow Mat on Twitter @matbeeche

    Matt, I think this is a fabulous initiative and would love to contribute. Where do I go to access the forum? I’ve searched “Shoe String Women” and this post is the only result that comes up. Cheers, Nicola

    I would love to know more as well (although it is tempting to throw in some glib comments about shoes, chocolate and shoes made of chocolate!) what’s next?
