Once we got into the actual birth of our brain child we soon realized this was going to have to pay for its self and our time, especially if we wanted the networking resources to evolve into a viable resource for people.
We had several options to fund this 2womenentrepreneurs.com brain child; we could use a lot of Google banner adds and such (which I personally hate) or in keeping with the intent of this business brain child we could charge a nominal fee for people to access all areas of the site and work with advertisers who are in keeping with the entrepreneur spirit while looking for a very reasonable cost to reach a target market.
Of course we plan to sell coffee cups at the very least but the merchandise is phase 2 of the site (look for promotions featuring our free merchandise in your newsletter)
