Today's guest is Sarah Sommers, a co-founder of the crowd-funding and entrepreneurial resource center IFundWomen. There are a lot of places you can go online in order to crowd-fund your next venture, but IFundWomen doesn't just give female entrepreneurs access to capital, they also provide coaching and help foster connections that are vital for any new enterprise to thrive and grow. In the world of startups there exists a gender disparity in access to funds and mentors. Bridging this gap is the main driving force behind IFundWomen.
Listen in as we cover everything from why pitches should be concise, efficient, personal, and data-driven; why she hopes to see more pregnant women building businesses; and how she ended up on the streets of New York City pitching her company to confused tourists outside of the Broadway musical Hamilton.
