The second survey, conducted by the Center for Women’s Business Research and sponsored by Key4Women in October, indicates these women business owners are seeing the beginnings of an economic recovery.

Dreams Do Come True – Kat Simmons, Winner of the 2009 eWomenNetwork Talent Contest

2009 eWomenNetwork's Got Talent Winner, Kat Simmons

2009 eWomenNetwork's Got Talent Winner, Kat Simmons with eWomenNetwork Founder, Sandra Yancey

Kat Simmons sat in the green room before the 2009 eWomenNetwork’s Got Talent show, writing notes and mentally rehearsing before taking her place on stage.

“I knew it had all come down to this moment,” she recalls. “I knew I had to establish a connection quickly and that I had to be authentic. I am those women (in the audience).  I am their voice.

For those of you lucky enough to be there to see it with me, you know Kat’s performance was outstanding!!  It’s no surprise that offers and opportunities have been pouring in since the event.

Kat was recently profiled in Nevada’s Record-Courier in a much deserved re-cap of her hilarious performance.  Check that out … and then check out the video of her performance for a true repeat performance and a GREAT laugh.

Congratulations Kat — thanks for showing us that “Dreams Really Do Come True!”

Meet Zack Johnson: The Future of Advertising?

As a marketer, I’m always curious about what’s going on in the world of advertising.  And in my day, I’ve seen some ads that have been truly wonderful (loosly defined by me as being enjoyable to watch while being effective for the brand being represented) to some that are truly awful (can’t stand to watch them, regardless of whether they were effective – and usually they were not).

This latest campaign that I happened to stumble across surprised me.  (Can you guess who is behind it?)  It’s quite a clever campaign, and I’m still wondering what to think.  It’s a viral campaign that’s spreading quickly online via this blog and Twitter, as well as many other social media sites.  The blog is actually a combination advertisement and research tool (visit the Help Me! section).  It’s engaging, and it’s easy to see why it’s going viral (i.e., spreading like a virus – only the brand behind this campaign hopes, in a good way).

All that aside – it’s the subject matter I’m curious about … have they crossed the line in their methods of talking about this most “womanly” of subjects — or is it all in good fun?

Check it out here – and then let me know what you think!
