Creating Economic Opportunities through Fundraising with Karen Cahn of iFundWomen
/

Karen Cahn credits the beginning of her Entreprenista story with becoming a feminist after a few years of her career were spent monetizing primarily male creators at YouTube. Karen fell into what she calls a “shame spiral” after being unexpectedly let go from another decade-long career, and started her first business to help her get out of that mindset. She ultimately launched IFundWomen, a crowdfunding site for women with big ideas.


Tune in to hear how Karen and her team have passed $500M in capital raised by their members in under 5 years, and how you can get involved with IFundWomen too by supporting the Entreprenista x IFundWomen campaign OR starting your own!


Key takeaways this week:

  • Karen shares her experience dealing with the unexpected loss of her corporate job
  • How market research and testing can help you be prepared for anything
  • Why hiring a coach can help you become more attractive to investors
  • Some common terms you need to know when raising capital
  • And finally, how IFundWomen is dedicated to helping all women see success in their businesses
