There are 10.5 million women owned businesses in the United States, and they employ 25 million people.  If U.S. based women owned businesses were their own country, it would have the 5th largest GDP in the world.  These numbers are growing every day.  Together, we are driving the economy, ending the unemployment crisis, and creating stability for our families.  If you’re ready to grow too, join our movement and apply for the Make Mine a Million $ Business Award.

Whether you are well established or just starting your business, we can help you achieve your dreams of a million dollars in revenue and beyond. If your business is at least two years old and has current annual revenues of $200,000 or more, apply for the Make Mine a Million $ Business™ Award (M3 Award).

Make Mine a Million $ BusinessTM is a program of Count Me In for Women’s Economic Independence — and founding partner, OPEN from American Express®. Count Me In introduced the Make Mine a Million $ Business to help women entrepreneurs grow and build sustainable enterprises, create jobs and develop innovative products and services. The M3 Award provides a combination of coaching, financing and marketing tools that will help you take your business from micro to millions. 

Count Me In launched the dynamic movement of Make Mine a Million $ Business with a goal to inspire one million women entrepreneurs to reach annual revenues of $1 million in the next decade.  The impact of reaching this goal would be to create over 4 million new jobs and $700 billion in economic activity. With 97% of all women-owned businesses in the U.S. reporting less than 1million $ in revenue, Make Mine a Million $ Business is addressing the growth needs of established and new, women-owned businesses. We have connected women entrepreneurs to pathways of business growth through confidence, coaching, and community support, provided ways for big corporations to invest in small business success and inspired women to expand their vision of what is possible.
