PRESIDENT'S NOTE

Hello and welcome to the April issue of WomensBusiness.Info. 

Have you subscribed to the Purple Pages Online Directory? Our second national launch is in full swing and we hope that you will be amongst the ads featured.  See below for details.  Have you submitted your Who’s Who Among Florida WBEs profile? We are putting the publication together for an April launch. Here’s what Audric Dodds of Scripps had to say about the Who’s Who book: “I have found the Who’s Who Among Florida WBEs book to be a great resource. I have used it many times to locate WBEs with whom Scripps can work. The index by industry in the back of the book makes looking for WBEs very simple. The profiles are invaluable because they give a great snapshot of the company and contact information that can be referenced for further information. I look forward to receiving the 2008 version. As a matter of fact I could use a few copies to send to colleagues. “

Our theme for the year is “building a better network” see the article below for more information on programs available to help you build a better network.

Don’t forget to register for the You Have Runway event in May. It’s for the 40+ woman and will offer a day of pampering, networking and lifestyle workshops you don’t want to miss…

Happy Reading,

Nancy Allen
