She said that Women entrepreneurs could join as a member, list their products and services, generate leads through a common social media handle, engage in e-commerce, list their events and activities, offer schemes and coupons and increase their business. All these facilities are free for the self help group with an objective to facilitate and uplift the less privileged women who have been supported through the Government schemes like NULM and NRLM to form Self Help Groups.
