Speakers
have been announced for a Christian
Women’s Business Expo planned Saturday,
Oct. 28, at Arizona Community Church.
Two East
Valley businesswomen will be
among those to present breakout
sessions.
Tami
Rawlings, owner of Webinizer, LLC, a
four-year-old web design and development
company in Chandler, will be sharing her
expertise in a breakout session, “Make
Your Web Site Work.”
She will discuss
the importance of implementing sound
plans for business-oriented websites,
including design, layout, navigation,
organization and structure.
"The Internet is
available to us, just like our country’s
system of interstate highways, streets
and roads,” Rawling says. “But if you
can't drive a car or use a road map,
what good is the system for you?”
A second
area speaker, Janet Drez, will
speak on the topic “Success in a
home-based business,” focusing on the
how-to’s of starting and growing a
successful home-based business.
Drez is past
chairwoman of the Home-Based Business
Council, a national speaker and author
of “Putting the Pieces Together: A
Christian Woman’s Guide to a Successful
Home-Based Business.”
Her workshop will
focus on the basics of determining
whether or not a home-based business is
right for you, business planning,
marketing and maintaining balance, all
from a Biblical perspective.
Running from 8:30
a.m. to 1:30 p.m., the program will also
feature two keynote sessions, lunch,
networking, exhibits and other sessions,
including “Maximizing Your Publicity;”
“When is Your Business a Business;” “How
to Pray for Your Business;” and “What’s
Hot in the Gift Market.”
Cost is $25.
Exhibits
will be available from 1:30 to 3:30
p.m.
at no
cost.
“If women
are just thinking of starting a business
or simply want to network with other
Christian business owners and do some
shopping, the exhibit hall will be open
to provide those opportunities,” says
Marcia McGovern, event coordinator.
More than 40
exhibitors will be on hand for shopping
and networking. Displays will feature
businesses from jewelry to real estate,
candles to healthcare products, interior
design to dog training.
Women
attending the afternoon open session
will receive a free copy of the book "A
Christian Women's Guide to a Successful
Home-Based Business.”
Arizona Community
Church is at 9325 S. Rural Road, Tempe.
