I've wondered by some group stay busy while others have less participation. I don't know but I do try to come by on a regular basis to make my contributions. Any suggestions would be great and aside from appointing members to post on certain days, I'm not sure what else could be done. Thanks for asking and God bless. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Gazelle Simmons, Virtual Assistant/Owner of Admin Services – http://www.admnsrvcs.com Free Book Preview - http://gazelle.simmons.googlepages.com/twdnkpreview How to become a VA - http://vatools.frugaladnetwork.com/index.php/book-intro JOKE A DAY - http://todaysjoke-network.ryze.com/

Any network is only as strong as it's leaders. With regular posters you get topics of interest where members are invited to add their two cents on a large array of topics to do with business, raising your children, health and wellness and many more subjects of interest to women.
For this network, Sherry, Gazelle and I (to my knowledge) are the only moderators and/or regular posters who participate and I've been woefully short on article writing for WOT as, like all of us, I have businesses to run, clients to serve and uh, a life away from the keyboard.
We may need to organize a bit more, a bit better and do our best to bring our members out of their shells.
You see, members have a responsibility too. It is their job to let us know if what we do is helping them. If what we do means anything to them and if what we do makes a difference in thier business endeavors and everyday lives.
Without feedback all we DO do is worthless, in our view, as we have no way of knowing if the members are benefiting from our efforts.
WOT is about motivating it's members to take the next step in organizing local chapters for women in areas where other resources may not be availble. It's supposed to be a place where questions get answered by women who have 'been there, done that' in business and online and who can help solve these problems.
So, as we discuss the participation level, we have two areas to think on...
• What are we, as the leaders, doing to help our members? • AND what are the members gaining from our efforts?
There is one more element that might come into play and that is EXPOSURE. All businesses need to expose themselves to groups they belong to and as a member, feedback and .02 commenting is not only expected but required to help a group grow and flourish.
Eileen :D
PS - (Gazelle, I have your information, did not forget and you are next on the list for updating! I was offline for almost a week as my AT&T equipment failed and not only was I unable to get online, my local LAN was down too. What a MESS! I'm playing catch up now...)

I had my AT&T modem die on me the week before last when I was scheduled to speak at a networking event that day. :( Thank God I had purchased another one for the girl's computer and I just needed to network both computers together to fix the problem. You are the second person to tell me their AT&T modem died recently. Let's see how long this one lasts. Good luck getting caught up and God bless. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Gazelle Simmons, Virtual Assistant/Owner of Admin Services – http://www.admnsrvcs.com Free Book Preview - http://gazelle.simmons.googlepages.com/twdnkpreview How to become a VA - http://vatools.frugaladnetwork.com/index.php/book-intro
