Don't want committee work? NOT a problem...what we really want is your best thinking and creative ideas. Regular meetings, just check with Nikki or Judith. Under the exellent leadership of 2 professionally excellent co-chairs, this 'nerve center' committee of 6 to 8 people in the fields of PR, creative, sales, and marketing, collaborate on NAWBO project work. Members often end up doing business with one another, sharing valuable referrals as well.
The lynch-pin for growing our organization is reputation, press, media sponsorship and compelling stories about our member businesses. This is one of the most valuable functions. PR is part of the Marketing Committee and they meet once a month to set stragety and lay out tactics.
