**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  The National Women’s Business Council (NWBC) is a non-partisan federal advisory council that serves as an independent source of advice and counsel to the President, Congress, and the Small Business Administration on economic issues of importance to women business owners. Members of the Council are prominent women business owners and leaders of women’s business organizations.

To NWBC’s knowledge, no government agency has yet delineated a segmentation of women entrepreneurs. At the same time, NWBC would like to understand if and how the motivations and expectations of women entrepreneurs may result in self-limiting perceptions about the potential of their businesses and would like to assess which messaging is most effective in overcoming potential self-limiting perceptions.

The analysis will focus on how the expectations and motivations of each segment differs in order to provide insight into what messaging can best be used to help these different segments overcome potential self-limiting perceptions and grow their businesses. The research proposed would build knowledge about how women business owners view the potential for their
