Stitch that on a pillow!Alex dives deep into why focusing on traction creates more value for your business and leaves you in the driver's seat when you do go out for funding.Women make up almost 50% of entrepreneurs and women are only bringing 4% of the total gross revenue produced by US businesses. Take that in. This is why Alex is all about traction and helping women scale their businesses to help create wealth - generational wealth.Scale does not have to be a billion dollars or an IPO. Scale can be $1 million, $5 million, $100 million. It's subjective and based on what your business model is capable of combined with your needs as a founder. Women tend to think too small... and Alex' programs are geared to help women think bigger and deliver bigger results.To learn more about Alex's traction accelerator and online traction courses, please visit:https://www.shegetsshitdone.comPlease connect with Alex via:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alex-batd...
