CEO & Founder

Ah...the season of gratitude and giving back...that's what Femfessionals is all about after all...

Our theme for November is gratitude to those in our community and our clients. In a world of online communication, it's wonderful to have Femfessionals as a platform to meet with our FEMS in person and to endorse one another. Our lunches and our blog are both arenas in which to share the many thanks to those around us. We are grateful to our FEM Community, members, sponsors, advertisers and entire team, for helping us create a community of authentic business women that have committed to assist one another. Our Members have made a commitment to serve each other within the business globe and have greatly impacted hundreds of women because of their acts of Femfessionalism. We toast this newsletter edition to you for making a conscious difference each and every day! Thank you for joining Femfessionals and making the commitment to be a Femfessional. 

We are thrilled to introduce you to our newest FemCity Presidents. Please join us in welcoming, Lauralie Ezra, President of FemCity Las Vegas, Stephanie Boultinghouse, President of FemCity Los Angeles, Anne Young Albanese, President of FemCity Danbury and Michelle Bertholf, President of FemCity Milwaukee!  That brings us to 22 Femfessional Communities in the US! Each part of Femfessionals is inspirational! {yes, FEMS, we are creating a movement!}

Please take time this month to say thank you and show your gratitude to a fellow FEM. You may do so at our Connection Events or on our Community "Thanking Board" {www.myfemcity.com}. When we say thank you, the world smiles brighter...{and our companies grow as do our revenues}.

As always, we look forward to seeing you at our next Femfessionals Connection Lunch. May your month be filled with much prosperity and joy. 

Femfessionally yours, 

Violette Sproul | Founder & CEO

The Season of Gratitude ::

Brought to you by our Featured November Fabulous Femfessional Members

"There's nothing better, in my opinion, than a personal thank you to someone who has supported me or my company. Second best is a hand-written note. When neither of those is an option, based on the size of the company or organization, my thank you is simply looking out for the best interest of our customers by putting myself in their shoes."

Brandi Reeves | Progress Energy | FemCity Raleigh

"At Black Dress & Pearls, we want each buyer to know that we appreciate their business and that they are recognized individually. Therefore, a handwritten thank you note is included with each order when delivered."

 Jessica Fallis | Black Dress & Pearls | FemCity Ft. Charlotte

"Appreciation to my clients is shown through my crazy 3am emails and ideas! I work around the clock to make sure clients shine. Creativity knows no quitting time. Our clients always get more than what they pay for from my amazing team...I would never want it any other way."  

Kristy Sevag | Sevag Creative Agency | FemCity Philadelphia 

"I send out ecards saying the following: 

eFiction Bookstore LLC would like to thank all of our customers for your business which is much appreciated. Your continued online patronage and suggestions are a vital part of our growth. And for that, we are most grateful."

Melissa Ellis  | eFiction Bookstore LLC | FemCity Houston

"I'm thankful that my career with Rodan and Fields Dermatologists allows me to share my passion for skincare and support women in starting their own businesses. To say "thank you" to my customers, I give exceptional customer service (something I believe customers are always due), and also bake home-made pound cakes using a recipe from my grandmother." 

Laura Williams | Rodan + Fields | FemCity Charleston

"The holidays are not an easy time for many of our patients so I do send out little e-mails letting them know that we are thinking of them and ideas on how to get through the holidays which is joyous to many but not so easy for them."

Yolanda Perez | Fertility & IVF Center of Miami | FemCity Miami 

PLEASE JOIN US in welcoming our new FemCity Presidents   

"Where do women go to move their world forward? In Vegas, we'll be doing that together via Femfessionals and I'm excited to lead that process." 

Lauralie Ezra | President  | FemCity Las Vegas

"My general mission for FEMCITY LA is to empower women to empower each other. We will do this by concentrating on three areas. One is by creating accountable partnerships amongst dynamic women, i.e. inspiring women to form purposeful and supportive relationships to help each other stay accountable to goals and purposes that are most important to them."

Stephanie Boultinghouse | President  | FemCity Los Angeles

"I love the Milwaukee community.  My passion for helping my fellow professional females and the community is shared by so many incredible women here and I am so excited to represent the Femfessionals brand and use it as a foundation for further developing those relationships."

Michelle Bertholf | President | FemCity Milwaukee
