"Taking Care of Business, And The Community, Too!"

 

 

  

The world wide web has truly become a common place for connecting people.  This is why it makes sense for any business, organization, community group, church, or individual seeking to "say" or "show" anything to take advantage of this dynamic medium.  Sisters In Business.Net has rolled its new "SIB Network"platform. This new service platform provides local and global users choices for information, services and business listings; and enables them to communicate and share information that can be searched, viewed, categorized, printed, and processed any number of ways.  This user-friendly web-based system is "A Business Network, Consumer Guide, & Business Directory Service...all at Your Fingertips!"  It makes the global internet local, information an asset; and knowledge become power. 

 

Also with the SIB Network comes lots of  great "free" stuff, such as FREE Business Directory Listings, FREE Classified Ads, FREE Events Calendar Postings, & more!  The free business directory listing includes name, address, and one category placement.  And what does this new platform of services mean for existing "pioneer" SIB members?  It means more for free.  SIB member retain their same level of service while adding the new companion SIB Network services for free!

 

Below are some of the services available through The SIB Network! 

 • News and Human Interest Stories

 • Community and Business Events Calendar

 • School, Church, and Club News

 • Recreation Opportunities

 • Entertainment

 • Sports

 • Weather

 • Photo Contests and Polls

 • Forums and Blogs

 • Articles and Columns (Writers welcomed!)

 • Humor

 • Garage Sales

 • Business Listings

 • Real Estate Listings

 • Local Jobs

 • Autos For Sale

 • Public Affairs

Sisters In Business.Net is dedicated to women in business, small business owners, and the communities they serve...locally and worldwide.  The company will be building on this new service platform ongoingly, and invites all to participate in its development.  Next month the company will feature the Brainerd Business Community, in Chattanooga, Tennessee.  (See related article "Brainerd Businesses Spotlighted in October!  FREE BIZ Advertising!"  below for more details.)  Should you have any questions, or to request a media kit, please contact Sisters In Business.Net at 423.421.5646, or email sisters@sistersinbusienss.net
