Sydney, 30 April 2012 — HerBusiness has embarked on a national community outreach program to share hundreds of valuable business resources and business training opportunities to women business owners through partner organisations across the country. Recognised as a leader in the area of business education for women, HerBusiness uses the latest online technology and new media to provide non-industry specific online business training and mentoring for women. Winner of multiple awards for its mentoring and education programs, ABN has embarked on a campaign to offer its resources to women in urban, regional and rural areas across the country.
“We’re delighted to work with organisations who want to empower their women members and customers through education. We have hundreds of articles, podcasts, videos and resources that have, up until now, only been available to our national community of 20,000 women. However, these resources could greatly benefit other women and so we’re looking to share those educational resources with women through a network of organisations,” explains HerBusiness CEO, Suzi Dafnis. “We believe the more education businesswomen have access to, the more likely they are to succeed in business. And, creating successful female entrepreneurs is part of our charter and passion.”
The multimedia resources are designed to help women improve their business skills and their confidence as business owners. Associations and membership organisations have the opportunity to gain free access to these resources for their members. The resources partner organisations will have access to include:
