Speaking and ConsultingWomen Riders Now goes one step further
This online magazine, WomenRidersNow.com, is just one aspect of our business. Women Riders Now is a marketing and communications company created to assist the motorcycle industry in reaching the most influential and powerful demongraphic segment today -- women. A woman controls 85 percent of her family's household spending; and women are expected to control more than 60 percent of the wealth in the U.S. by the end of 2010. Women are highly influential among their peers. They are walking advertisements for products and services they like. You want women in your corner.
What all this means to you?
Women have money or control the money in this country. It's our job to make motorcycling an attractive leisure activity on which they want to spend their time and money. Right now, women are the fastest growing segment of new riders. What are you doing to make your company stand out from the rest and attract women to your brand, dealership, or product?
Why is there a need for such a service?
Motorcycling is a male-dominated activity from the boardrooms to the showrooms to the pavement. Business owners are used to catering to a male demographic only. Many companies need to rethink old marketing strategies and learn how to reach out to women in a way that benefits their bottom line. In addition, many companies do not have women in key positions so they find themselves helpless when it comes to designing marketing campaigns that will effectively reach women and designing products for women.
