There are hundreds of debt workouts for small business owners every year.
One observation, most (make that almost all) are male owned.
There were research done and women are a driving force in new business start ups. Woman are implementing more new business plans than men. Millions of small businesses are initiated and owned by women.
Here is a second observation: either women are infinitely better business leaders and experience little failure and, thus, do not require debt workout services, or they do not search the internet for debt work out help, as there are very few inquiries from women small business owners. Almost none.
Or perhaps they don’t simply want to call for help.
Is this a form of emotional insecurity? Women business owners do not want to ask male consultants to help them succeed in a time of need? Is it possible that women business owners are uncomfortable asking men to help them work out their debt? They want to either do it themselves or want other women professionals to support their debt workout issues? Could this be it?
Is it possible that women business owners feel this would be self demeaning, having to ask men for debt workout assistance? Do they not want to ask men to help bail them out of trouble? Admitting they did not succeed on their own effort, that now they need male help, is this the underlying issue preventing them from reaching out for help?
No one knows the answer to these questions; however, it is known that many women business owners are confronting the same eroding economy as men business proprietors. After all, the economy has been melting down universally, every business is having to deal with these issues. It is universal.
