Marketing 2 Women International

M2W International is pleased to announce that its Marketing to Women Business Center is open for business and ready to accept clients, business suppliers, and partners. The Marketing to Women Business Center is a referral network of state, regional and international blogs referred to as the Marketing to Women Business Center.

They were developed to connect self-employed and professional women with the specialized resources they need to reinvent their companies to compete, expand their female client base locally, nationally, and internationally by forming cross marketing partnerships as well as relocate their business (or career) and family to a new US or international metropolitan area.

The premise behind Marketing 2 Women International is very simple. If you want to market your company to women in a specific metropolitan area, it makes good business sense to not only hire female business experts who reside there because they understand the market but to also form collaborative relationships with that area’s business and professional women because they can open business doors for you.

Business and professional women can become a Marketing to Women Business Center client to gain access to the experts, monthly roundtables, business forums, advisory boards, special reports on marketing to niche women’s business markets, discounts, and more for the introductory rate of $149 quarterly ($500 value). You are not locked into a long term commitment. Everyone who becomes a client this week will be able to participate in one of the August Marketing to Women Roundtables.

Each Marketing to Women Business Center blog is divided into …

• Growth Advertising, Marketing, & Networking Resources: The regional Marketing to Women section provides info on annual women’s business events, advertising offered by women’s publications, exclusive marketing and advertising opps provided local women’s groups and more.

• Regional Lifestyle Magazine: Showcases local fashion and interior designers, spas, business retreats, retailers, restaurants, neighborhoods equipped for entrepreneurs, and more of interest to up and coming female millionaires.

• Business Relocation: Info provided by metro neighborhood bloggers showcases the best places to live, put your kids in school, rent office space, hold meetings, network, shop, incorporate your business, find clients, open a bank account, and more.

• Marketing to Women Business Suppliers: Why reinvent the wheel to reach women in Atlanta, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, New Orleans, etc.? Simply hire marketing, advertising, and public relations consultants who live in those areas to help you reach their metropolitan business woman market.

Marketing 2 Women International is looking for publications and organizations that provide access to women in business with an emphasis on a niche metropolitan area. For example, female lawyers in Atlanta, business and professional women in Honululu, etc.

We want to showcase advertising opportunities in our Marketing to Women Business Centers. In exchange, we ask that you publish our syndicated business column, “Women Partner”, in your organization’s newsletter or magazine (newspaper).
