Congratulations on your success!! I also want to be one the successful business women but I am not sure how to market my products to my future clients. My business is going to be in importing women fashion accessories and handy craft goods mainly from Asia. My target customers are departmental stores, small retail stores and any one who is willing to purchase my goods. I will appreciate if you can give me any insight. Can you please share your experience about how did you slove the problem about under charging and how can you decide what is the right price to charge with out shorting yourself.
I would like to invite you to my network of friends and professionals. I own and operate a specialty gift shop in Myrtle Creek, Oregon. I am interested in networking with other professional women.
