WomensNet Newz for The Woman Entrepreneur!

Hi Everyone! I am so happy to announce that the WomensNet.net site redesign / Overhaul is finally complete! Please come by, check it out, and let me know what you think! This new layout will make finding things much easier.

In the coming weeks I will be redesigning all of the other sites in the WomensNet Family, so please keep an eye out for WomensNetOnline.com, DadsConnect.com, and WorkAtHomeIdeasForWomen.com

Now for the BIG announcement! The Amber Grant is BACK! We  are accepting applications for The Amber Grant through October 31st, 2008! If you have applied for a previous Amber Grant and did not win, you MUST resubmit your application.

ImYourNumber1Fan.com launched quietly yesterday as our first Shopster store! Have to say that all things considered - this was an amazingly easy system to work with. And I still really love the fact that we can control the pricing just as when we were dealing direct with these SAME manufacturer’s - but Shopster handles the support and shipping for us. 

I have seen a number of complaints online about Shopster’s prices but after dealing with most of the same companies for the last 5 years, I can honestly tell you that when you factor in the EBay fees that we were paying before - we are at the same pricing or lower, with better profit margins, and less work.

I love summer - and I love working from home, but the two don’t always seem compatible this time of the year!

I will be the first to admit that when the sun comes out I don’t want to be sitting indoors on the phone or the computer. The great outdoors beckons and the pool calls loudest of all! My natural inclination would be to chuck it all and ‘make hay while the sun shines’ but…from a monetary perspective that is not always practical!

June 1, 2008, Cincinnati, OH - It’s that time of year again - Father’s day is around the corner and it seems like there’s a Graduation to attend every weekend - meaning that my gift giving skills are pushed to the limit. Unlike Mother’s Day - you can’t just run out to the nearest florist and send a nice bunch of roses, and that means that when buying gfts for Dads and Grads…..you may actually have to put some thought and effort into the decision!
Fortunately, lots of Dads and Grads (yes, even the female variety!) are sports fans - and that opens up a whole new world of unique, logo bearing gifts!

Cincinnati, Ohio - The Womensnet Network has expanded it’s family of entrepreneurial focused sites with it’s latest offering - WomensnetOnline.com, a social & business networking site for women in business.

According to Melody Wigdahl, the 53 year old founder, “WomensnetOnline is a Facebook or MySpace for the self-employed woman, who is typically more concerned with making business contacts rather than building a huge ‘friends’ list. Our priorities are a bit different - and we want something that is more targeted, where we canmaximize our time online with useful networking rather than filtering out the biz opp spam.”WomensnetOnline launched in early February, and has seen the membership blossom to almost 2500 members, mostly by word of mouth.
