Women On… Many Topics: “The Learned Take” on SheSpeaks.com
![]()
After blogging about SheSpeaks in late March, I was intrigued to learn more about this active community of discussion among product sampling women. So, I signed on as a member, read through the conversations taking place, and could see the power in connecting with this site and its members.
Today, I am pleased to announce that I have partnered with SheSpeaks to serve as their resident poll commentator, via something we are calling, "The Learned Take." The first poll question is up on the home page now (must be a SheSpeaks member to participate) and final results will be tallied and posted on Friday. The idea is that we will post a question weekly, launched with an introductory comment by yours truly, and then at the end of the week, I’ll also give my take on the results (Were there any surprises? Did the women participating add particularly insightful comments? And, so on…)
I imagine I will learn some fascinating things from this group of women who have already proven to be very, very passionate about giving their feedback on the products they sample. What they have to say will surely inform my writing, in general (so, over time - you’ll read posts that were perhaps inspired by SheSpeaks discussions or polls). I also hope to give the SheSpeaks community an even better sense of how integral their input/how powerful their words will be to the shape of brands to come.
For a great snapshot of how SheSpeaks works and how its members feel about their participation, check out this clip from a recent regional ABC newscast.
Get ready for "Women On…" just about everything.
