| About |
I have a passion for Entrepreneurship. I love to be creative, to build and network with other like minded professionals for a real purpose – and it is all about being able to contribute to one’s success. I realized that I want to be in business and an entrepreneur at a very young age. My friends and I would do the “pretend activity” from being Superhero characters ( Wonder Woman, Super Girl, or any made up ones ) or setting up a store selling groceries ( used empty boxes collected from toothpaste, pasta, cereal, etc.. ), pretending to have a school and teaching students, or making our own soap with water, leaves and squeezing its juice out. Voila, homemade soap! I love innovation, creative ideas, paying it forward, connecting people and attending networking events. I am all for women, helping women win! I started http://www.ladiespowerhour.ca as a personal tribute to Women. I am very inspired, empowered and driven to this path because of women who have been role models and have affected me in ways that led me to becoming a better person today. Ladies Power Hour is in development phase, pre-launching in January 2010, as a rich content, resource and forum for women. Also, I have began a business/company that is in information technology, internet marketing, BPO/offshore and training/education fields. It is an international development for Canada, U.S.A & Philippines. It is in start-up phase, soon to expand it’s operations, employees, projects and sales/service development in the coming new year. |

Increase Customer Loyalty

Following up after a sale is [...]
