Lilburn businesswoman, Andrea Flowers (founder of Advanced Productivity Concepts), is doing her part to improve the odds of current and future women entrepreneurs in their quest to hit the $1 million dollar mark. She is just one of several female experts from the metro Atlanta area who will facilitate a seminar during Hire-A-Businesswoman Week, scheduled for September 17 – 21, 2007. Flowers will teach business and professional women savvy organizational strategies to improve their productivity so they can focus on working on their companies instead of in their companies.

Hire-A-Businesswoman Week is presented by the International Virtual Women’s Chamber of Commerce. It will coincide with Shameless Promotion Month, International Strategic Thinking Month and International Women's Ecommerce Days (Sept. 18 - 21) to offer business and professional women an innovative week of online networking, coaching, resource sharing and mentoring to assist in the remodeling of women-owned companies from the inside-out -- creating a fast-track to the $1 million-plus mark.

According to the Women’s Center for Business Research, only 3% of women-owned companies -- that's 242,000 out of a total of 10.6 million women-owned firms -- earn $1 million or more annually. Roughly three times as many male-owned companies -- 818,000 of them -- bring in $1 million or more annually

Hire-A-Businesswoman Week will bring together female experts from the coaching, virtual assistance, real estate, business development, sales and marketing industries to help business and professional women put together a personalized action plan to accelerate sales and revenue to new records.

Hire-A-Businesswoman Week will offer over 30 seminars delivered in a teleconference setting offering daily online networking events for women seeking strategies to grow and expand their companies into multi-million dollar ventures. Business models, business plan makeovers, franchising strategies, SBA lending, home-based business/small business conversion, “blogging” and video-casting, re-branding, virtual outsourcing and much more will be subjects offered by professional business women with experience and proven track-records. The seminars will be recorded for later review, replay and additional learning opportunities.
