Her forthcoming book, Women Hold the Purse Strings, will give companies powerful strategies for marketing to women entrepreneurs. She started out worse than broke. She was buried in debt and couldn’t find a way out of the poverty trap. But that’s not what really bothered her. It was that she was short and had frizzy hair to boot.
 
She and her best friend, Sheryl Felice, used their girl-power to the max. They launched a packaging business called The Bag Ladies which sells custom-printed shopping bags to leading-edge companies. She searched long and hard for the best method of building a successful business, and decided to create her own success formula using pieces of the puzzle she collected from the world’s top business and financial experts.
Her company, The Bag Ladies, was formed in 1988. She devised a sales and marketing plan which made the fledgling business profitable in a very short amount of time. As revenues for the company increased every year, she met entrepreneurial women, understood what motivates them and how she could increase their success. By the way, she is still short with frizzy hair. Hey, some things you just can’t change.

Her passions are business, sponsorships, marketing, promotion and packaging (she is a “Bag Lady”, after all).
