New data from the Small Business Credit Sales Report issued by the Capital Access Network (CAN) indicates that women-owned small businesses are performing better than their men-owned counterparts. Though both business groups are experiencing a decline in sales, the loss of women-owned businesses was half (1.5 percent) of the men-owned group (3.6 percent) in the second quarter of 2011.
A broad range of business statistics and indicators are available in the full Small Business Credit Sales Report, located online at CAN’s site. An overview of the report is also available through Newsday.
