Nice post. I like it so much.

Dear Shonali,

My name is Josh and I'm an associate at Springboard Enterprises, a national non-profit "venture-catalyst" seeking to improve equity in venture capital funding for women entrepreneurs.

Our organization was wondering if you would be interested in helping us spread the word about our upcoming event, AllThingsMedia: 2010, which will be the second-ever venture capital forum exclusively for women-led media companies: from television and radio to digital media and emerging platforms.

To find out more about the program or our organization feel free to visit the AllThingsMedia page of our website at www.springboardenterprises.org/vcf/atm. In return for any promotion of this event, Springboard would be more than happy to promote your organization to our large and ever-expanding international network of entrepreneurs and investors.

Since January, 2000, Springboard has helped over 425 women-led companies raise $5 billion in equity financing, including 8 IPOs, and legions of high value M&As. Springboard companies generate billions in revenues and have created over 10,000 jobs.

Thank you for your time and feel free to contact me with any further questions.

Hi, I was at Blogworld 2009, as part of Podcast Tuneup's booth with Utah Valley University. I recorded a Podcast with you interviewing Lavisa Williams. I was never able to get you the assets. They sound fantastic, and I think you would be able to use it. Please email me back if you'd like me to send the file to you (using yousendit.com).

Thanks Lauren for reaching out. I'd be honored to talk. Feel free making contact at jillmfoster(at)gmail(dot)com.

Hello,

My name is Lauren Kohler, and I am taking an Introduction to Public Relations and Advertising class at the University of Nevada, Reno. As a part of this class, I am required to interview professionals from the profession of my choice. I am interviewing Tracy Viselli from Quinstreet Media, and she directed me your way. I was wondering if it would be possible to interview you by phone or even just send you a few questions over email about what it is that you do, and how you got started. Thanks so much for your time and hope to hear from you soon

Gabrielle - Thanks for the opportunity (and for reading Women Grow Business). You bet - link away. And congrats on the work you're achieving through WEI. It's a great service. I'll be in contact soon under different cover with another idea that could hopefully benefit the Institute. Best .... JMF.

Hi Jill-- I would like to post your article on 5 Facts & Stats on Women, Business, and the Economy
on our Women Entrepreneurs Institute (WEI) website and link to your Women Grow Business.

Wanted to ask for your approval to do so first.

Jill:

I just found your website and would love for you to consider featuring my company Women TIES in the future. I have been personally promoting women entrepreneurship in Central New York since 1995 when I started my first company and looked for other women business owners for support. Four and a half years ago, I started my second business Women TIES (Women Together Inspiring Entrepreneurial Success) to continue with my passion but to create a local, state and regional marketplace for women entrepreneurs in New York State. Currently we have over 300 members - some national and one international member!

I believe very strongly in the power of women, especially the buying power of women. Our members truly live our mission and invest in each other's companies. Since regional networking is my major focus, I love when our members travel the highways to come to events in different cities to meet each other. They are doing business between each other every day. It's inspirational.

I would be happy to answer any questions you have about the company. But please visit our popular website at www.womenties.com. You can also visit my blog at www.womenties.wordpress.com. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Dear Jill,

I just discovered your blog. It's amazing!
If I may, I'd like to publish some articles in my blog www.blogjump.eu
Are you ok?
Very king regards,
Isabella

Dear Circulation Editor (...does that role even exist in the blogosphere???) ,

I love reading WGB emails, but unfortunately I constantly receive 2 copies at the email below and somehow it also appears in this email add: Samolis281@verizon.net. Would you please find a way to delete these extra copies? Thanx, Lillian O'Connell

Wow, Jill!
What a great story you did on our meeting!
And I love your other articles too!
Nice job on the blog, and on your mission to bring women entrepreneurs together with a common goal of supporting each other in our busines lives.
Keep up the GREAT work!
Barbara Drazga

Dear Jill,

I would firstly like to say that this blog is a valuable resource; I find the posts concerning continued growth of businesses immeasurably grounding yet inspiring. I particularly liked Katie Kemple's post on the transferring of performing skill sets and boundaries to her business ethos and approach. I found her points about performance crutches as a negative or distracting part of presenting when taken forgranted or used incorrectly a useful reminder.

Similarly, I enjoyed Jessica Valenzuela's post about embracing that vital step in entrepreneurial business whereby it is necessary to relinquish a degree of control in order to allow your business to continue developing. Overall, I find this blog to provide advice, tips and opinions that maintain an impression of women in business as feminine, unlike the common portrayal of unfeminine, cold and hard women found elsewhere.

I, too, am part of a developing business in the increasingly important sector of life insurance. I work for a small female-owned company in Edinburgh, Scotland, who provide whole-of-market policy quotes. Though we are a relatively new company, I am choosy about the places we would potentially want to be affiliated with, believing quality is better in the long run than quantity.

I would like very much if we could discuss the potential possibilities of affiliation, blog contribution or placing a link with you further. If you would like to contact me, you can do so on jemma.smith@lifeinsure.co.uk or through our website (found at http://www.lifeinsure.co.uk). I look forward to hopefully hearing from you!

Kindest regards,
Jemma

Hi Jill, your feedburner subscription box is broken.

Thanks in advance!

Anthony - Thank you very much for making me aware of Dottie's company (and patience with my reply). Her business sounds like a great story, esp in light of economic climates. -Appreciate you visiting us here at Women Grow Business.

HI JILL
THIS IS CHAD COLEMAN I ADDED YOU AS A FRIEND IN FACEBOOK. ITS GREAT TO HERE FROM YOU!
MY WIFE AND I OWN A DRAPERY BUSINESS IN WHICH WE MANUFACTURE DRAPERIES AND BEDDING FOR THE HOSPITALITY INDUSTRY SPECIALIZING IN HOTELS. SHE IS THE PRIMARY OWNER. I AM DEFINITELY GOING TO HAVE HER CHECK OUT WEBSITE.

You REALLY need to check out Dottie DeHart owner of DeHart & Company, Hickory, NC

At a time when the economy is slowed to a halt she is booming. She actually is having to select clients based on the current work load they have. Her client list is impressive and I think you would be well served by some type of article on her business practices, work ethic and this all with 4 children and a husband out of work recovering from cervical disk surgery.

Croi, hello -

How exciting!

I look forward to connecting with you live and seeing how entrepreneurs contributing to Women Grow Business can potentially help your 6th season. We'll blog about it here for sure.

Thanks too for considering a feature of women business owners for Home Made Simple.

To be in contact .... Jill F.

Dear Jill and Women Grow Business,

I am a producer with TLC on our hit show called Home Made Simple (www.homemadesimple.com). We are currently casting for families in the DC area for the 6th season of the show. We would love to cast an entrepreneur/small business owner from your organization! We all know how hard it is to work and have a family, but to have your own business on top of everything, even more complicated!

In a nutshell, Home Made Simple is a home and lifestyle show, where we send our three experts - a chef, a designer and a carpenter - to the homes of busy, dynamic and interesting families and help them with any projects they have been trying to get to. If it's installing new shelving, organizing an in-home office or learning how to make a delicious and wholesome Sunday dinner, our experts can help.

Would you be interested in hearing more? I would love to speak with you. I would appreciate if you would share this e-mail with as many people in your organization that you would like!

Please e-mail or call. My work contact is Croi McNamara O: 240 662 4163 E: croi_mcnamara@discovery.com. Or you can reach me at my yahoo address over the weekend. Thank you so much for the great work you do, your consideration in my request and I look forward to hearing from you!

Kindly, Croi
