Every week, our Speaker Friend Friday meetings bring women together to connect, talk about public speaking and support one another in being seen as leaders and experts. But this Friday, we’re adding something extra: a celebration of Pink Friday, a nationwide movement created by The Boutique Hub to uplift and spotlight small businesses.
Pink Friday is a “shop small first” alternative to traditional Black Friday. While big-box deals often dominate the holiday season, Pink Friday shifts the focus back to the small, women-owned, and locally rooted businesses that power our communities. Founded by Ashley Alderson of The Boutique Hub, Pink Friday encourages conscious, community-first holiday shopping and reminds us that small businesses make a big impact.
Innovation Women is a community built on supporting one another’s visibility and success. Many of our speaker members are also small business owners, authors, podcasters, consultants and creators. (According to one of our recent surveys of our membership, more than 60 percent of our members speak to drive another business – consulting, courses, coaching, etc.)
Pink Friday is the perfect opportunity to honor the entrepreneurial spirit at the heart of our community and to help amplify the businesses and projects our speakers care about.
Let’s come together as a community to elevate women’s voices, support women-owned businesses and kick off the holiday season with intention and impact.
