Women-Owned Businesses
Strategic guidance for women who lead differently—on purpose.
At Daybreak, we work with business owners across the gender spectrum, but we have a particular focus on supporting women entrepreneurs. Many of our clients lead in industries where they’re often one of the only women in the room—and that comes with both challenges and opportunities.
Whether you're growing your company, professionalizing operations, or preparing for a future exit, we understand the nuances women founders navigate—because we've spent our careers navigating them too.
Built Differently—And Better for It
Women tend to build collaborative, values-driven companies that emphasize sustainability over speed and culture over ego. These qualities are often misunderstood or undervalued in growth and exit conversations. We help women founders:
Translate their business model and leadership style into a compelling growth strategy
Align leadership teams around a shared vision and clear operational structure
Develop a roadmap that honors what makes the business different and powerful
Exit Planning with Intention
When it comes time to plan for an exit, women business owners often face added complexity—from leadership succession to WBE certifications to negotiating equitable compensation. At Daybreak, we help you:
Unwind WBE or other designations well in advance of a sale to ensure a clean, merit-based transfer of ownership
Evaluate succession options that maintain culture and stability
Collaborate with M&A advisors to ensure your contributions—and your business—are fully valued
Transition with confidence, knowing you’ve protected your people, your purpose, and your legacy

Whether you're working on the next phase of growth or planning for an exit a few years down the road, we’d love to be part of your journey. Reach out below to explore how Daybreak can support your next chapter—with clarity, strategy, and unwavering respect for how you lead.
