Behind the Scenes At SheSpeaks

By drodriguez Mar 14, 2007

Hello! I'm Aliza Freud, the founder of SheSpeaks. We've been getting lots of requests for more information on SheSpeaks. Who we are? How did we get started? Why we're here?

Well, we figured, the best way to keep SheSpeaks members updated on what we're doing, is to just tell you directly on the site. So, we've created a section of the SheSpeaks blog dedicated to information on the behind the scenes at SheSpeaks.

I started SheSpeaks because I realized that as women we are an incredibly important and powerful group of consumers. We make up over 50% of the population in the US, we make over 83% of the purchase decisions and we have tremendous buying power of $5+ trillion!

So, if we are such an important consumer, shouldn't we have more of a say in the development, marketing etc. of products and services that are targeted to us?

With SheSpeaks, we are creating a place where women can have their say and influence these products and services- while getting them for free and connecting with one another at the same time!

Since we launched at the beginning of February, thousands of women across the country have signed up to join SheSpeaks. As our numbers grow, so does the influence of our network!

This is a great site. Hooray for women who start their own businesses and provide a forum for other women to share their ideas!

This site is definitely influential! When I first joined I thought I was only going to use this site as a method to see if products I was interested in were good and to receive free stuff. Now, I use the site as a way to express my opinion about products and to share them with all my friends who aren't members. SheSpeaks isn't just about free products, but using your opinions to change the significance of female voice in marketing and sales.

I am happy to be a part of this! It is a great opportunity to try products and be able to tell others my opinion! When I find a good product I like to share the information with all of my friends and family. Now I can do that and share with others on this site! I recived my first product on Saturday and wasted no time trying it! This is such a great concept! Thank You!!

She Speaks gives consumers the opportunity to evaluate products and have a voice in whether they are placed into the market place or not. This is a bit like mystery shopping only at a more focused point.

I love the site and am anxious to have something to evluate and report on.
