Editor’s Note<br />

Welcome to a new year a new network<br />

and our new network magazine! I<br />

decided to start Women to Business<br />

<strong>Network</strong> —<strong>W2B</strong> — because I really feel<br />

that networking and getting to know<br />

other women in business is valuable to us<br />

as women and as business-women.<br />

I hope that you enjoy being part of this<br />

network and that you get more out of it<br />

than just attending a monthly meeting.<br />

Let’s keep in touch during the month on<br />

our Facebook page. Of course it’s nice to see business offers on Facebook, but let’s<br />

use the tools available to touch base, ask for advice, pose questions and share<br />

points of interest throughout the month.<br />

You’ll find in this issue an overview of the new network including benefits and costs.<br />

This is OUR network which means that it will be so much better if everyone is an<br />

active participant. <strong>Network</strong>ing is more fun with new people, so bring your friends,<br />

neighbours and colleagues. ALL WOMEN ARE WELCOME! The more we grow, the<br />

bigger the events we can host and the more people learn about our businesses.<br />

This is going to be a great year and I’m very excited to be starting this journey with<br />

you!<br />

<strong>W2B</strong> <strong>Network</strong> E-<strong>Zine</strong>


It’s Time to Think BIG<br />

It’s a new year and we have a new network. How can we all benefit<br />

from working together and growing the <strong>W2B</strong> <strong>Network</strong>?<br />

Women to Business <strong>Network</strong> is run by<br />

women for women with the aim of<br />

promoting business in the community<br />

and supporting women who work to<br />

achieve their goals.<br />

The Particulars<br />

Membership fee is £30 a year. Meeting<br />

fees are as follows: £6 for members<br />

and £10 for non-members. By becoming<br />

a member, you are already saving<br />

£10 a year in meeting fees.<br />

Membership will include a quarterly<br />

magazine and only members will have<br />

the option to advertise in the magazine.<br />

Membership with <strong>W2B</strong> will also<br />

guarantee you a reduced rate as a stall<br />

holder at the Yorkshire Show. And with<br />

membership you will be entitled to a<br />

10% discount on all non-alcoholic beverages<br />

at the Parsonage Hotel in<br />

Escrick.<br />

throughout the month.<br />

Meetings will be held once a month at<br />

the Parsonage Hotel in Escrick 10<br />

months of the year. We will have a<br />

Christmas social and a summer social.<br />

Meetings will be a mixture of speakers<br />

on various topics and hands on<br />

demonstrations.<br />

I’d like to make <strong>W2B</strong> exactly as you<br />

want it. To do that I need your input.<br />

I’m open to suggestions about content,<br />

speakers, meeting format….anything.<br />

All ideas are welcome and can discuss<br />

them as a group or you can email me<br />

privately. Let’s work together to make<br />

<strong>W2B</strong> great.<br />

<strong>W2B</strong> has a Facebook page and all<br />

members are welcome to contribute<br />
