The WEST SUBURBAN WOMEN ENTREPRENEURS have hired me to speak for them
at an event around the topic of WEB 2.0.

What is so amazing about the shift from Web 1.0 to Web 2.0, is that the world has changed!The cheese has been moved! Think of it this way - when the Internet and web development first started, it was this huge cyberspace to post things to be read. There was no interaction. Web 2.0 is all about interaction! and sharing! and linking! It's social now and everyone can play in the game! Everyone from IBM to my grandmother who lives on a farm in Flint, Michigan!

In the old days, you had to chase business; "push" business. Now you create a worldwide "pull" marketing strategy to bring prospects to you! The secret is knowing what new tools to use and how to use them effectively. So on Saturady, May 19th, the WSWE has invited me to speak to their group, and guests, about this new evolution of the Internet and what is called Web 2.0. We'll explore the potential of what I think are the top 3 free online tools available - blogs, article hubs, and LinkedIn.  - Even on this site, we have talked about so many great sites and tools like ZAADZ, NING and Global MindShift. In this day and age I tell all my clients, you should set up a profile on every free site out there! Just last week, I had 2 potential clients call me from my profile on non-business social netowrk sites. IT'S FREE ADVERTISING!

So mark your calendar if you would like to attend!

Saturday, May 19th, 2007, 10am-1pm, downtown Chicago at 200 S. Wacker.

Non-members of WSWE can attend for $80, payable at the door by cash or check.
