The Fall Business Women's Expo has Started!!!

Welcome to the 1st Fall Business Women Expo Online!!
We are so all excited that you've taken the time to join us today in the first of many more Expo's to come. Come right on inside, grab a cup of coffee, tea of beverage of your choice, take a load off and enjoy the many women who have come together this weekend to share a little about themselves and their businesses with you!

The Business Women Expo will introduce you to many great female businesses and get you in the mood for holiday shopping. Not only will you learn about what great female businesses are available to shop from this holiday, but there will be prizes, specials and giveaway's going on all weekend across the blogosphere! This expo isn't about the big retailers, it's about the female entrepreneur's of the world. It's about networking, building your blog followings, sharing your business and a little bit of selfish promoting...BUT most of all it's about having a little fun!! This expo is for everyone, so don't miss out!!

Here's how the Expo works:
After reading this post, register by leaving a comment below. There will be a door prize at the end of the Expo. Once you've left your comment, Vist all the vendors booths listed to the right hand side. You don't have to do it all at once, you have all weekend long!! Leave comments to their posts as you go along, enter any contests that may be going on, and share the experience with your friends. Your visits will be reciprocated all weekend long! What will happen by the end of the weekend is that we'll all be worn out, BUT we will have networked our businesses and built some friendships and followings along the way...and that's what this Expo and Girls Night Out is all about!!

So to that, here's the Girls Night out theme song! "Let's Go GNO!"


Now that you're in the mood...let's check out this Expo one booth at a time and don't forget to register to win this handcrafted necklace made with Amazonite, Quarts, Freshwater pearls and Sterling silver! Drawing to be held Wednesday, September 30th!

Expo Sponsored by Runako Designs. When I'm not hosting Girls Night Out, you can find me creating jewelry at www.runakojewelry.com

  16. Bonjour from the south of France!
    I'm American, born in (you guessed it) Richmond, Virginia but only I know the year. I loved visiting the shops and am inspired by the thinking and writings of the artists. I began making silver jewelry set with semi-precious pendants in 2001(week of 9-11) and now have a shop on DaWanda.com. I'd love to hear from you artists to see what you think of my creations.
    And yes, this GNO is a fun idea. Thanks.

  30. This is the best idea I have seen in quite some time. I'm unable to do craft shows anymore, so getting my jewelry designs out there has been a challenge - this is awesome!!
