As women look to make greater gains in business and own more establishments, data shows us the exact types of business this demographic is running. Specifically, the online services search company Thumbtack recently published the results of a survey showing, among other things, the top 40 different types of businesses owned by women. As the source said, these tended to be in creative fields which require social skills and often include a managing component.

The number one business was house cleaner, with the top ten also including makeup artist, photographer, wedding services, interior designer, personal trainer, massage therapist and drop-off caterer.

Other jobs in the list included creative, health and home care positions, although there were some outliers, such as bartender or tax preparer. The source said that women in the wider company tend to work in “healthcare, social assistance and education.”

alttextA recent survey listed some of the most common types of businesses owned by women.

It’s worth noting that this data comes from just 20,557 women polled in the first six months of this year. The National Association of Women Business Owners has a grander picture: As of 2015, it stated that women owned more than 9.4 million firms in the country and that 2.9 million firms are majority-owned by women of color. In addition, 4.2 percent of all women-owned businesses had revenue at least as high as $1 million.

Growth Capital will assist entrepreneurs who need help with commercial business loans. We offer access to programs such as the Ohio 166 Regional Loan, which can help finance as much as half of a project, as well as dedicating up to $500,000 in loans. Although only certain businesses qualify, this loan can apply to several different purposes and be a versatile option for improvement.
