March holds International Women\u2019s Day as well as women\u2019s history month. At Scion Creative, all month long we are celebrating women in creativity who have paved the way, fought for, and nurtured us. Within the creative industry it\u2019s no secret that women have long been overlooked for promotions and leadership roles.<\/p>\n
In our world, where women are influencing upwards of 80% of the overall consumer spending as well as 60% of social media sharing, we are neglecting a pivotal part of our business\u2019s growth and success. This month, as we continue to honor women and share their stories, we\u2019re providing resources for women looking to break into, grow or learn about roles in the creative industry. We see you and we are thrilled to partner with you!<\/p>\n
