Advantages of Partnering With a Women-Owned Business
Akorbi prides itself on being a women-owned business. In fact, we’re the largest woman-owned language service provider in the United States. Why is this important? One reason is that there are advantages to partnering with a women-owned business. Our blog explains.
Better Diversity, Innovation, and Collaboration
Studies show that women-owned businesses (and minority-owned businesses) are more diverse in their staff. Diversity and inclusion lead to higher profits due to better innovation and collaboration.
The same is true if your company partners with a diverse company. You’ll have better innovation and collaboration thanks to a diverse set of critical thinkers involved in your partnership with a women-owned business.
Better ROI
Research conducted by the Hackett Group reveals that partnering with a WBENC-certified business (which Akorbi is) can increase your return on investment by as much as 130%.
Why?
Several reasons. You have better innovation and collaboration. But it’s also about diversification of your supplier base. Diverse suppliers can lower your operating costs by as much as 20 percent through efficiency when you hire experts. Other factors for lowering operating costs include hiring a contractor versus hiring in-house staff (lower labor costs on your end) as well as better results from an experienced supplier like Akorbi.
Good PR
Once you partner with Akorbi, you can tout your partnership on your web properties, through your blog, a press release, and social media. For companies who favor doing business with a women-owned business, you’ll have an advantage when potential customers or clients search for your company.
