Women-led businesses receive only 13% of VC deals, and that’s up 20% YTY, according to Pitchbook, a venture-capital research firm. This is good momentum! And for me, this is means 2014 will continue to be a breakout year for women in technology too.
I’m also thrilled to help spark this breakout by hosting IBM Global Entrepreneur Week, February 3-7th. I’m honored to be the first woman to host this premier event. Register to join us!

I now get to manage IBM’s Global Entrepreneur program. I love learning about the new start-up business models and that’s why this Infographic made my top of the list for this week!
Fascinating facts:
- Top performers spent 14% of their time on marketing but did you know that less than 52% of start-ups save any money for Marketing?
- Did you know that 68% earned less than $5K on their first successful app?
Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas!!!
I love social selling, and the impact it has on business. Social selling is shown to drive measurable results. The Best Reps are not just present in Social Media, they position themselves as credible and influential sources in customer networks.
In a recent joint study conducted by WetPaint and the Altimeter Group of the top 100 brands engaged in social media, a significant correlation was drawn between a brands depth of social media engagement and revenue growth. Companies that scored the highest marks for social media activity, on average had increases in revenue growth of 18% over the last 12 months, while social media laggards saw revenues drop 6% over the same period.
