Networking is the single most powerful marketing tactic to accelerate and sustain success for any individual or organization! – Adam Small
From health to personal, Networking Sisters’ mission is one of business sisters forming powerful connections that will empower and encourage other women in business. As an entrepreneur, networking is essential.
According to the 2015 State of Women-Owned Business Report commissioned by American Express Open the number of African-American women owned businesses have increased to over 300% since 1997.
“It’s not WHAT you know, but WHO you know”.
“As many African-American women are first generation entrepreneurs, we don’t always have access to some of the networks where financing, references, resources, etc. are readily available. We have to be creative and step out of the “ideal” mentor box in order to advance our businesses”. Porter and Hoffman.
Networking Sisters’ goal is to introduce, link and connect like-minded business owners giving black female entrepreneurs the opportunity to request services or get advice on a wide variety of business services.
