Last week I had the privilege of attending the VT Womenpreneurs’ Fall Showcase. The showcase featured 14 women-owned Vermont businesses. Each "Womenpreneur" told their story on stage. I left inspired and grateful to be a Womenpreneur here in Vermont. While the print industry has been dominated by men, at CW Print + Design we have been women-owned since my Aunt Di opened Copy World in 1994, and my mom and I have continued this tradition since 2009. 

With this in mind, I am excited to announce that we are partner supporter of VT Womenpreneurs Leverage & Launch Contest. If you have been developing your business idea, and are wondering what the next steps are, this contest is for you.

The woman in Vermont who wins this contest will have an opportunity to work with and receive support from a collaborative effort of Vermont-based, women-owned businesses and organizations, a package valued at over $1,700:

• 1 to 1 business coaching session with Lisa Wood, Director of the Women Small Business Program at Mercy Connections;
• 1-hour legal consultation with Katherine O’Neill of Hatch Law & Consulting, PLC;
• 1 to 1 build your brand consultation with Julia Atherton of Atherton and Co.;
• 1-hour logo concepting session with Bethany Andrews-Nichols at Beenanza Design;

 We are honored to be a part of this package, and encourage you to apply today (applications must be received by November 30^th!).
