Forbes StaffWhen Christina Rowe started a Facebook group for female entrepreneurs in 2016, she had no idea she was about to spark a global movement. Fast forward to today, and Women Helping Women Entrepreneurs has ballooned to over 863,000 members in the Facebook Group and over 252,000 followers on the Facebook page, making it the largest community of its kind on the platform.
“I honestly just wanted to create a space where women could support each other in business,” Rowe tells Forbes with a laugh. “I never imagined it would become this massive.”
But massive it has become. What started as a simple Facebook group has evolved into a multi-faceted empire, including Stand Out! Media Group, the Stand Out Membership Program, and Stand Out Groups – a software that instantly gets targeted hot leads from social media co-founded by Rowe.
The secret to her success? Rowe believes it’s all about understanding the unique challenges faced by female entrepreneurs.
“As women, we often struggle with imposter syndrome or feeling like we don’t belong in certain spaces,” Rowe explains. “I wanted to create a community where every woman felt empowered to go after her dreams, no matter how big.”
And go after their dreams they have. Members of Rowe’s community range from life coaches and wellness gurus to authors, speakers and everything in between. What unites them is a desire to succeed and a willingness to support their fellow female entrepreneurs along the way.
“The energy in our group is electric,” Rowe gushes. “These women are not just building businesses – they’re changing lives and lifting each other up in the process.”
But Rowe isn’t content to rest on her laurels. With Stand Out Online and Stand Out Groups, she’s tackling one of the biggest pain points for entrepreneurs: promoting their businesses and getting leads.
“So many brilliant women have amazing ideas, but they get stuck when it comes to getting traffic and promoting their businesses,” Rowe explains. “Our platforms allow women to borrow my audience of over 1+ million female entrepreneurs and also leverage other people’s audiences to grow their own.”
It’s this combination of community and practical tools that has made Rowe a rising star in the entrepreneurial world. She’s become a sought-after speaker, being invited to stages by heavyweights like Russell Brunson and Anik Singal.
But for all her success, Rowe remains refreshingly down-to-earth. When asked about her ultimate goal, she doesn’t miss a beat:
“I want to help a million women build successful businesses,” she says with a determined glint in her eye. “And I won’t stop until we get there.”
Given her track record so far, it’s hard to bet against her. Christina Rowe may have stumbled into her empire by accident, but she’s steering it with purpose, passion, and a whole lot of girl power.
