Charles Schwab Presents

The Souhegan Valley Women's Leadership Conference 

Women own 30% of all privately owned businesses in the U.S. and are one of the fastest growing sectors of our economy. But there are still challenges. The purpose of this event is to provide an informative and useful day of information exchange and networking for women entrepreneurs. There will be 3 sessions focusing on managing your money, marketing your business, and a panel discussion from successful women in several different fields to answer your questions. Followed by lunch and keynote 

speaker Marcelle Langan DiFalco, author of the

Big Sister's Guide to the World of Work: The Inside Rules Every Working Girl Must Know (Touchstone, 2005).

DiFalco is the Director of Creative Services in the Marketing Department of Champlain College. Prior to joining the marketing team at Champlain College, Marcelle founded and ran WordBroker Communications, LLC, a consulting firm specializing in marketing and advertising writing—primarily for startup operations. In addition to running WordBroker Communications, Marcelle held the position of Vice President of Content/Editorial Director of Tavolo, Inc.—a dot.com that was once the largest branded specialty retailer of premium foods and kitchenware on the Internet—where she was responsible for not only producing the site’s deep content components, but also for the conception and development of the firm’s overall merchandising strategy and primary marketing vehicles.
