Women in Business infographic_thumbDid you know that 99% of the employers in the United States are small businesses? Did you know that the number of women-owned businesses in the United States increased by 20% from 2002 to 2011?

In other words, women small business owners are playing an incredibly important part in job creation in the United States as more and more women take control of their own careers, start their own businesses, and create jobs for more people.

A new infographic from BOLT Insurance Agency offers a visual representation of how women small business owners are impacting job creation in the United States. Using information from the U.S. Small Business Administration Office of Advocacy and the Center for Women’s Business Research, Infographic World designed the infographic shown below.
