While the staff and company is on summer vacation hiatus I thought I would take time to jot down my thoughts for this issue and upcoming issues of Woman2Woman Business.  The 2010 Summer edition came together with many new writers and several of your favorites.  The quest for new contributing writers is at the forefront of W2WB and what sets it apart from other publications.  We like to feature regular columnists, but we are looking for that aspiring writer that has something to say with a new twist.  Want to write for W2WB?  Go to our Editorial Submissions page to find out how.

When I started Woman2Woman Business magazine I wanted it to become the businesswoman's go to guide for anything to do with business, entrepreneurship, know-how and inspiration.  The magazine has surpassed my expectations and gets better with each issue.  I have been surrounded by talented and progressive women and men that contribute daily to make W2WB spectacular.

We have all watched as the W2WBnetwork was launched from our fast growing Woman2Woman Business group on the Linkedin network.  The W2WBnetwork will add new Chapters every quarter.  For detailed information about the W2WBnetwork visit the W2WBnetwork page.

This issue features the writings of Wendy Y Bailey; Jeffrey Bruce; Nickole Byrd; Sheri A. Callahan; Kimberly Douglas; Dawn Enstruthe; Dr. Sheila Forman; Melissa Galt; Ada Gonzalez; Patricia Green; Amanda Guralski; John Hardy; Lila Havens; Colin Heaney; Patricia A. Jones; Nona Jordan; Karen R. Vowell-Mager; Paul Morand; Susan Placek; Paula Pollock; George Purdy; Corte Swearingen; Lauren Tracy; Nancy Treaster; J. Steve White; and Jennifer Tuma-Young.  Additional contributors and source information was provided by Verint Witness Actionable Solution; Isnare.com; MyOptumHealth.com; PopularArticles.com; Tanyarelf.info.com; Susannah Williams; K. Lamb; Gina Miller; G. Bennett; and Penny Vargas.

The year is coming to a close and we have so much to be thankful for at this time of year.  Despite the economy roller coaster of 2009, W2WB was able to find the silver lining.  We have been astounded at the growth that we have experienced and going into our third year we see that uplift continuing with each new edition.

We are making a few changes with the start of 2010.  We will transition to a quarterly publication that will still deliver substance and quality every three month period.  At the end of the year we will present a Holiday Gift Guide that will showcase the products, services and information from our readers, advertisers and writers.

You will see some new faces and you will see a few familiar faces depart, but they will always be within reach of W2WB magazine.  I want to extend a thank you to all the women and men that have contributed articles, advertising and their expertise throughout the year.  We could not have done this magazine without writers such as Kate Sanner, Melissa Galt, Wendy Y Bailey, MaryPat Kavanaugh, Karen St. John, Dr. Sheila Forman, Amy Franko, Greg Wulkowicz, Beth Armknecht Miller, Susan Cadley, Pat Heydlauff, Shari Frisinger, Cher Murphy, Paula Pollock, Kelley Connors, Stephanie Faiella, Jaqueline Wales, Jon Gordon, Marsha Friedman, Jeffrey Felner, Taylor Glenn, Gina McNew, Angela Newman, designers Tiffany Breesan-Corbett & Courtney Noelle, Susie Coelho, Leslie Gail, Steve Cadley, Martha Zoller, Sharmen Lane, Holly Reville, Laura Fial, Stella Lohmann, Paula Begoun, jewelry designer Jenna Clifford, Elaine M.

Hello readers of W2WB magazine.  We have come to the conclusion that blogging every week can be very time consuming and with the daily running of a magazine our blogs cannot be weekly updated.  In an effort to keep our postings fresh and interesting, we will only post when we have something new to share. 

We have published the JULY/AUGUSTS issue of W2WB - go to our View Magazine page here on this site, or if you are reading this on the internet then go to: http://www.woman2womanbusiness.com/VIEW___MAGAZINE.html    This issue is full of surprises and information that will continue to motivate you to achieve your goals in business and to strive to be all you can be in your personal life, too.

We feature several new writers with valid points of view that we hope will inspire you as you read a small segment of their journey.  Our business profiles have been heightened with the introduction of PACE SETTERS, our newest business profile, featured in the front of the magazine.

Our Business Illuminate feature showcases two spectacular women this issue: Susie Coelho and Martha Zoller.  Both women are from different fields of the entertainment industry; one is a design guru who has built an impressive empire that helps promote her design point of view, while helping women at the same time; the other is a radio talk show host that is not afraid to speak her mind and offers a solid and firm outlook on today's issues.

You will see some familiar faces in our writers group, but a few new faces have emerged this issue as well.  Young and seasoned, you will find every age represented in W2WB magazine.  After all - this is YOUR business magazine.  Enjoy and make sure to give us your feedback.  Go to the bottom of this section and post your comment or ideas for future articles.

It has been awhile since our last blog update on the W2WB website.  A lot has happened since March.  We have changed back to a bi-monthly magazine and now are completely digital as witnessed in our new "flip" format.  (Go to the View Magazine page to get a good look.)  The only exception to being completely digital is our year end, W2WB Annual Report that features a compilation of the year's best stories, articles and the long anticipated announcement of the "WOMAN OF THE YEAR" for 2009 from our 2009 Woman of the Month recipients.

We have continued to grow due to our loyal audience and word of mouth, additional growth comes from our strategic marketing done by a superb team of marketing specialists.  Our staff goes beyond the call of duty to make each issue better than the last. 

Our writer network has become one of the best with new talent stepping on board every day.  And how about those featured columnists that share new ideas and information each issue that inspire us all. 

The advertisers small and large, help make the magazine available to women across the country and around the world by their support through ads placed within the magazine.  By our connections through Linkedin, Facebook, Savor the Success, Twitter and many other social/business networking groups the word has spread about Woman2Woman Business magazine.

Let us not forget the most important part of all - YOU our readers!  Without your continued support and following Woman2Woman Business magazine would not be where we are today!  Thank you for making the past year and a half one of the best.  We appreciate you and we hope it shows!

Yours Truly,

The new issue will be on line in a matter of days.  In the February edition of W2WB the next Woman of the Month has a real interesting background and the product she created is helping to save lives.  Our Business Illuminate feature follows the life of one really amazing businesswoman in a relatively male driven business environment.  We continue with our entertainment section featuring two women that are making their mark.  The social/business networking is becoming a large part of how we do business today and we have several articles on how to do it right.

The next few weeks I am looking for writers that have something to say and have a unique perspective.  Go to our Submit Editorial page and send me a prospectus of your work and why you would like to write for W2WB magazine.  We have so many talented women contributing already, but I know there are more of you out there that we haven't had the chance to meet.  Have a week that is filled with possibilities!

Yours Truly,

Another week has come to an end.  The editorial contributions continue to grow.  We could not do the magazine without people like Wendy Y Bailey, Melissa Galt, Kate Sanner, MaryPat Kavanagh, Roger Reak, Ted Richardson, Bill Allen just to name a few. 

Personally I am thrilled to be able to offer you our readers a place to share your knowledge or to find out something new that you did not know.  The magazine builds on the philosophy that through our connecting, we are helping each other build something pretty wonderful.  To see each and everyone of you grow your business and your own belief in your dreams is truly rewarding.  Join our network and send in your comments, we will print them in our weekly blog.

Thanks for all your support and continued contributions to make W2WB the best that it can be!

Yours Truly,
