Women from all backgrounds and lifestyles have taken to ownership. Not only are there more women that are starting their own businesses, but these companies have also been largely successful. Unfortunately, women have still had difficulty securing the cash they need to make their businesses thrive when it comes to funding. Of course, whether or not this is due to gender bias is debatable. What can be said is that the recent success of women business owners inspires others to follow suit. There are many reasons that women hold an advantage over men when running a business. Here are just a few reasons women entrepreneurs have dramatically increased their presence in the small business world. ### Higher Education There are currently more women graduating from college than men. Women choosing business-related majors has also increased dramatically. With the success of women entrepreneurs, there is no longer the stigma that a woman can't make it as a business owner. Having a degree and a strong background in finance and business operations significantly impacts the confidence and ability of women to succeed in small businesses. ### Media Coverage With the many different equal rights movements that have flooded the media, women in business have received more publicity than ever before. With more support for their endeavors, women have an increased confidence in running their businesses. This is particularly true with the younger generations. The rise to the prominence of women business owners has given young women role models for inspiration and strength. ### Family And Business  The days of the stay-at-home mom may never truly be over, but there are more opportunities than ever for today's moms to succeed in business. With the ability to work from home, women who have a working husband or are single have a much better opportunity to start their own businesses. Being able to juggle a family and owning a business is easier than it has ever been. Childcare is also much more available these days, and it allows women to structure their workday around their families. ### Pay Discrepancies One big reason women have started their own businesses is the still present pay gap between women and men. Owning their own business allows women to control their destiny and have a greater influence on the business world. ### Becoming a Role Model Some women entrepreneurs are motivated to serve as a role model and influence younger women. Being able to serve as a mentor for young women is an excellent source of pride and motivation for today's businesswomen. ### Securing Capital Although women have proven that they more than measure up to their male counterparts over the last few decades, funding has remained challenging to come by.
