This has been a busy but interesting week. I received an invitation to join PINK Magazine this past Tuesday for a " small business PINKstorming" session with the PINK editorial team.
Since I wasn't local to the Atlanta office, I was given the opportunity to participate via conference call. There were 4 of us invited to take part in this PINK session. I have to be honest, it was nice to have a voice for small business. Historically, the PINK reader has been "sophisticated, highly successful female business executive or entrepreneurs." Yet interestingly enough 97% of small businesses gross 150K a year or less.
There were various business topics discussed from how the recession is effecting small business to business trends. I enjoyed hearing the perspective of other women entrepreneurs at various levels of business and was really excited to hear that PINK had just launched a small business section in the magazine.
I think we can expect some really exciting changes in the future with an ever growing voice for the "small business woman."
Thank you PINK.. for asking me to join you and to represent the small business woman. I look forward to your new small business section in future PINK magazines.
Joyce, I am extremely excited about the aspect of MMP joining forces with Pink Magazine. I think it is a huge step in another wonderful direction. Keep up the great work.
