Hello Fabulous NEW Members,

First a huge  thank you  to all of you who took the time to participate in our recent survey.  As a result of the responses and much discussion among the leadership of NEW, we have decided to move to a fee based event format.  

Since launching NEW in 2012 we have been able to offer free events because of a powerful volunteer cadre, but to move to the next level we will need to begin charging a fee to attend our events.  However, we are super excited to launch a NEW Membership  package that is both affordable and robust.
  
The membership program begins immediately and includes the following cost and benefits:

Membership Levels
  • Member - $35/year (rolling renewal)
  • Supporting Lifetime Member - $350 one time fee 

NEW Events
NEW hosts many webinars, workshops and other events throughout the year.  These are opportunities for you to meet fellow business owners, learn and network to grow your business.
  • 100% FREE virtual networking and learning events
  • Discounted LIVE networking, social and learning events

NEW Advertising Opportunities
NEW offers several ways for your business to advertise to our network of contacts.
  • Free listing and access to Member Directory 
  • Free professional profile on Network Honcho
  • FREE access to private, virtual, Members Only group
  • Paid advertising opportunities
    • Newsletter
    • NEW website
    • Personalized social media blasts

  • Free access to Resource Library
Savings Programs & Partnerships
  • Members-only discounts and freebies from other NEW members
The programs mentioned above are only some of the benefits that NEW expects to offer its members.  We are constantly looking for ways to add value to your membership and will add new benefits as they become available during the year.

 
We look forward to continuing to support our local community of women entrepreneurs in the upcoming year and hope to see you at one of our NEW events!
