NAWBO Hosts 4th Annual Business Expo

ONE OF THE FASTEST GROWING MARKETS OPENS ITS DOORS TO BUSINESS COMMUNITY AT BUSINESS EXPO

ATLANTA, August 2010 – Women Business Owners – one of the fastest growing business markets in the country -- are set to showcase their companies at the 4th Annual National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO) Atlanta 2010 Business Expo Wednesday, September 29, 5 pm - 8 pm at The Retreat of Dunwoody at Perimeter Summit, Atlanta. NAWBO Atlanta welcomes participation by all companies (not only those owned by women) targeting professional women and business owners as a strategic market. They invite the Metro Atlanta Business Community to join them as exhibitors and attendees.
Lorna Rasmussen, founder and CEO of More4SmallBiz.com recalls last year's Expo: "The Expo was very productive and profitable for us because we got to meet such a wide spectrum of high quality people, both NAWBO members as well as from the business community."

Last year's NAWBO 2009 Business Expo brought more than 50 vendors and over 120 attendees together in a productive and fun networking event. "The NAWBO Business Expo provided my company a great opportunity to introduce our services to the Metro Atlanta business community. The fun, social atmosphere and reasonable exhibit fees make this business opportunity a no brainer!" says Mollye Rhea, President, For Momentum, LLC.

This year's venue, The Retreat of Dunwoody at Perimeter Summit, features a beautiful, spacious exhibit area with an outdoor terrace for additional networking, and covered complimentary parking. NAWBO is providing free heavy hors d'oeuvres to guests, and cash bar stations will be sprinkled throughout the exhibit area.

Teplis Financial Services participated in the NAWBO 2009 Business Expo with an exhibit. “The attendance and interest were strong, and the traffic to my exhibit was good," says Julie Teplis CFP, ChFC, CLU. "This was a good way to showcase my business to a large number of fellow business owners, and to become acquainted with the other NAWBO member's businesses."

The price for one exhibit space is $100, including a draped table and one individual registration. NAWBO President Nancy Chorpenning, Managing Partner of C-Suite Advisors, LLC, reminds us "You don't have to be a woman-owned business to exhibit at our Expo. But NAWBO members get 50% off the exhibition price -- so joining now saves $50 on registration fees and get all the other wonderful benefits of membership, too!
