DELRAY BEACH, Fla. - Marylandian -- Women business owners have been disproportionately negatively impacted by the pandemic according to a recent study by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, and one South Florida female entrepreneur is doing her part to help.

In honor of International Women's Day (March 8, 2021), Campbell Creative owner Courtney Campbell, a mother of two, who founded the Delray Beach-based marketing firm over 10 years ago and has branded countless businesses, is offering her tips to women business owners (and want-to-be business owners) during a free, webinar titled "Make it Memorable: 5 Steps to Successfully Branding Your Business." The webinar will take place on International Women's Day, Monday, March 8, 2021 from 8:00 to 9:00pm EST. Registration is required at www.bit.ly/BizBrandingTips.

According the US Chamber survey, the number of female small business owners who ranked their business's overall health as "somewhat or very good" fell 13 points during the pandemic, from 60% in January 2020 to 47% in July 2020. By contrast, the number of male business owners only fell five points in the same period. Women-owned small businesses also reported having less optimistic revenue, investment and hiring plans compared to their male counterparts. Experts attribute the findings to the fact women have had to take the lead when it comes to child-care and virtual school during the pandemic with so many kids at home. This is all while many are simultaneously managing family needs and their businesses.

In addition to providing tips, Campbell will share examples of recent work:
