Hi

If you are a female entrepreneur please could you take a moment to read this.

As an undergraduate student at Bournemouth University studying BA (Hons) Business Studies, I am currently doing my dissertation on why there are proportionately less female entrepreneurs than male. It is important to address this issue because an increase in female entrepreneurs will create more jobs and improve our economy, it may be that due to the different traits of the sexes, females can bring certain qualities to a business that males cannot. As a result of this study I hope to create recommendations to reduce this disproportion and advice to help women succeed.

As a female entrepreneur I was hoping you could assist with my research by answering a quick questionnaire on your experiences, if so please email me on hayleycooper1985@hotmail.com and I will reply with the questionnaire, or just post your email address and I will respond directly.

If you would like a summary of the research findings then please provide your email or postal address. If you have any queries you would like to discuss please do not hesitate to contact me.

Thank you

Hayley Cooper
