Girlpreneur Power!

So, we're three soon-to-be MBA's starting up revolutionary (like, in the socio-political sense of the word) businesses (this kinda makes us feel less like we sold out to "The Man" by coming to business school...at least for HeatherJean and Erin. NOTE: we go to to the only all-women MBA program in the US at Simmons School of Management in Boston, MA...so selling out to "The Man" has some added dread attached to it in our context. But we digress...) 

Anyhoo, we had an exercise in our entrepreneurship class where we had to think about who we were targeting with our business ideas...and Heather Jean and Van both agreed their target markets would totally want to date each other (Erin's target market could as well, but might be too distracted by trying to save the planet.) This got us laughing and chatting and kapow! Girlpreneurs was born. We want to use this page to help Gen X and Gen Yers (our target markets in MBA-speak...we'll try NOT to use a lot of garbage B-school jargon here) connect, learn about our businesses and others that we think are doing really cool stuff and share in the processes of birthing dynamic, women-owned businesses. Welcome to the rollercoaster!
