Fun at Single Working Women's Week in Cleveland


Smiling faces at Famicos Notre Dame Apts–just before Ohio Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner shared her straight-from-life story about helping a loved one through a very difficult time of single motherhood. Secretary Brunner spoke, too, about her commitment to making Ohio a better place to live for more of its citizens–she will start by measuring the social health index of the state. More later about the Secretary’s four goals.

Thank you to all who joined us to make the first annual Cleveland celebration of our official holiday a memorable occasion! Special thanks to Chris King of Creative Keys and Tina Hamrick, NAWBO Cleveland president-elect and partner in SJKBeringer Group…and especially to Secretary Brunner. Your commitment to our event and the wonderful citation you presented to SWWAN will help fuel our efforts over the year to come.

Starting a business in Ohio? Consider the franchise…

If you’ve thought about starting a business but shake in your boots when it comes to things like legal hassles, inventory, marketing and so on, franchising can be a savvy approach. Well, there’s a guy in Cleveland who can help you figure it all out–believe it or not, at no charge to you. He’s Joel Libava and he operates a website full of information and resources about franchising–psst! he even has a section “franchising for Women Only!“–and writes a very friendly blog called The Franchise King, which just happens to have a very nice reference to SWWAN. Here’s the company’s online bio:

Since 1990, the Libavas have been helping folks with their dreams of business ownership. If you want to lower your risk, and learn how to choose some great franchises for our area, we are the ones to speak with! Call 216-831-2610 We specialize in the franchise business segment, helping those who wish to explore and learn about which franchises they may be a great fit for. We also work with young franchise companies wishing to market online, with our state targeted website, Statefranchisecenters.com

I know Joel professionally, and I can tell you he’ll probably be glad to share his knowledge even if you live somewhere else.

Thanks for the shout out, Joel!
