A Futurpreneur herself, founder of Schmooz and Chief Executive Schmoozer Zoe Share was invited to write a series of guest blogs for their site. In them, Zoe shares some of her wisdom on how female entrepreneurs can charge appropriately for their services, getting organized for the dreaded Tax Season, and how to develop a content calendar to help better understand your social impact.

Female Entrepreneurs: Are You Charging Enough For Your Services?

In this blog, Zoe goes into detail about how female entrepreneurs can ask for what they’re worth, and quickly monetize their business in an effective and efficient way. When starting out, Zoe suggests offering discounted rates for a set number of customers, or to offer your services in exchange for others such as promotions, referrals, or content creation. Ultimately it’s most important to be clear about your expectations of yourself and your business, to set goals that are attainable, and to be up-front with your clients.
