Funding Unlocked: Selling Your Vision for Women-Led SMEs

This episode challenges the common perception that lack of funding is the primary reason for the failure of women-led businesses in Nigeria.

We argue that while access to capital is essential, a dearth of sales and business development skills often poses a more significant obstacle.

The episode explores how strong salesmanship is crucial for:
* Securing funding: Crafting compelling grant applications, effectively pitching to investors, etc.
* Identifying funding opportunities: Conducting thorough research to discover relevant grants and funding programs, particularly those designed to support women entrepreneurs in Nigeria.

The episode highlights the importance of developing and honing sales and business development skills as a critical pathway to overcoming funding challenges and achieving sustainable growth for women-led businesses in Nigeria.
