As I discussed in my first post, SheSpeaks was born out of a desire to give women a place to voice their opinions, have a say and influence the products and services around us.

Since launching SheSpeaks early this year, tens of thousands of women from all across the country have joined. We have quite honestly been amazed and excited, not only by the number of women who have joined, but also the great enthusiasm SheSpeaks members express for having a say!

We are working to quickly make great product, service and content tests available to our members. We have several great products and services lined up for SheSpeaks members to test. We are also enhancing the site and adding new features that will give members even more opportunity to voice their opinions.

One such example is the member polls. The poll can be found on the home page and any member can vote, share their opinions on the topic with one another and read expert advice on the subject from women’s market expert, Andrea Learned.

There will be other new features and tests added in the coming weeks. We hope our members will enjoy them.

As always, we hope that you will tell us what you think. Good and bad, we want to hear it. You can share your thoughts and suggestions via the message boards or directly through the "Contact Us" button at the top of the page.

In this blog, my goal will be to share with you a bit about the inner workings at SheSpeaks. We are young and growing. We are looking for your help to make SheSpeaks a place you want to be!

More to come...
