FAQ’s

1.Why join Women Who Barter?

Based on member surveys, our organization offers the friendliest and the most comfortable vehicle for in-person networking.  Women network differently from men and are extremely relationship oriented. They want to get to know you before referring business to you. We have figured out the best way to connect women with each other and that is through our round-table discussions and small intimate gatherings.

In order to have a viable business that will grow, women must learn to market their products and services in a competitive marketplace. We are not a closed group. The founder of this organization, Jan Murphy has thirty years of B2B sales and sales management experience. She teaches members how to market themselves in a competitive but friendly environment.

3. What if I do not have a product or service that I can exchange with members?
