Female Startup Club How to build a 9-figure empire
Hi everyone! Doone here - your host and hype girl. Thank you for tuning in to my solo episode this week.
Today is all about diving into the learnings of some of the highest rev-generating business founders that we’ve had on the show, those producing around the 9-figure mark. For those counting numbers in their heads right now, that’s revenue of 100 mil and above. Don’t worry, it took me a quick google search myself. This is an impressive and particularly interesting milestone for a business because of many reasons. It’s often said that in order to be considered as a potential investment by VCs, you should tell a convincing story which could catapult your startup to forecasts in the $100M annual rev mark. In other words, should a $100M revenue look realistic some point in your future, you’ll be catching some serious VC eyeballs. The funny thing is that when we look at the numbers, only 0.04% of companies ever reach that mark. And I can imagine that when we look at women-founded companies we can look to add another load of zero’s in front of that number. These are pretty slim chances of success, giving all the more praise to the female founders we’ve had on the show that are actively breaking through this glass ceiling.
On that note, I’m a bit hesitant to call these founders the most successful founders we’ve had on the show. Success in business isn’t just down to the level of revenue you’re creating. Whilst it’s important to audit what success looks like to you, there def isn’t a one size fits all approach here. You can aim for growth. You can aim for building an amazing community. You can aim for fame. You can aim for a sense of fulfillment. You can aim for happiness.
So, let’s get listening to the key learnings from the highest revenue generating business owners we’ve had on the show. Keep a pen and notepad at the ready, there is a LOT of food for thought here. Thank you so much for listening in. These are five women and conversations that have resonated with me enormously over the life-time of Female Startup Club, and I hope you’re able to get as much out of their journeys as I have. I’ll link each of their episodes in the show-notes if you want to dive deeper into each of their journeys.
