"Sherry Thacker is a woman of action and high standards. I've had the honor of working with Sherry on projects in the
areas of promotion and marketing. What I learned is that I was working with a woman who: leads by example, doesn't leave a
stone unturned, is not afraid to put in long hours and has the ability to achieve her outcomes and then some. Sherry
is in a class of her own; resourceful, optimistic and makes things happen!"

Sherry
is a "make it happen" kind of person. Detail oriented, and outcome focused. Highly competitive, and driven to win, she is
the type of person you love to have on your team, and hate it when she is on the other team. Sherry is welcome on my
team anytime, to work with her is to know that she is committed to the cause, and to raising standards all the time. Reliable
and conscientious, you know that when Sherry says it will be done, you will not get any excuse, blaming or complaining about
what got in the way. You might as well just consider it done, when she takes it on.

Hello Sherry,
I want to thank you for the very beneficial session of introduction to the 101 Cash Flow. Daniel and i have
bought the 'Rich Dad, Poor Dad' you recommended and are planning to buy the book ''The complete idiot's Guide to making money
on the canadian stock exchange'' very soon. Your thoroughness in the filing system and the spreadsheet you developped really
inspired me and i have made it a priority to put one together for myself
in the next month.
Thank you for this 'eye opener' evening. Daniel and I have really started talking about ideas to start generating
a passive income. We will keep you informed of our advancement!
Best regards and all the best to you

Guess
it was time I got my act together and re- joined your (our) WENS breakfasts again! After this last breakfast, I had four ladies
come to my home to see the Optionelle collection and have set appointments with three others. Thank you for your continued

Hi Sherry,
I just wanted to write in to say that I had a wonderful
time last night at the CashFlow game night. It was very informative and I met a bunch wonderful women. As my first
introduction to WENS, I was very impressed with the way you facilitated the game, made it fun, but kept us on track.
It sure made me think about what I am attempting to do with my business, and home finances. Thanks so much. I
will definitely be back to play again, and will be bringing my husband!
I am looking forward to participating in future events.
Thanks again.

WENS is one of the best Networking Breakfast events I have been to so far. The quality of the relationships
developed there with other woman is unique.
I have been going to the breakfast once a month since January 2005 and got 4 times my return on
investment. The owner Sherry Thacker is a creative person and she’s always looking at new ways to add more value to
WENS community. Visit her website for novelty!

Hi Sherry,
First of all, let
me tell you just how much fun I had last night at the Cash Flow 101 Game. To be honest with you I wasn't sure what to expect,
but after Taj and I left, we spoke about it the whole drive home. We already started brainstorming on how we can start making
some "passive income". : ) Anyhow, it was very educational, lots of fun and we are definitely looking towards more events.
Thanks so much,

I participated
in the cash flow game this past Monday evening and I have to admit I really didn't know what I was getting myself into.
I met
some great personalities that night and I left thinking about how this game has really has made me change my way of approaching
my financial decisions in the future. It's hard to believe that a game could do this...well it did!! Sherry did a great job
as host and I will definitely be back for more!!!!

A little over a year ago, I was introduced to the powerful world of networking by Sherry and WENS. Since that
day, making new business contacts has been soooo much more pleasant Recently, thanks to Sherry, once again, the unforgiving
world of finance made its way into my ranges of interest. On Monday, November 27th, I took part in a game of Cashflow 101,
organized by Sherry. Although, I did not even come close to winning the game, I enjoyed it and learned a lot from it. It made
me realize that firstly, I need to start taking charge of my finances and secondly, that perhaps I do not need to work relentlessly
to earn my every penny unlike I was brought up to believe! Sherry, who is an expert at the Cashflow game, and in real life
finance, held us by the hand throughout the game making sure we all understood the impacts of our investment decisions. I
recommend this game to anyone, money shark or not! Thanks again Sherry!

I just wanted to send a quick note to thank you again for Wednesday’s breakfast meeting. I am so
glad that I have the opportunity to get a feel for WENS! Judging by yesterday’s meeting, I am thoroughly impressed
by the organization and practicality of it all. It was great to hear other women’s stories and business concepts.
Also, Danielle’s talk on Personal Branding couldn’t have been more fitting for me. What a
practical/soul-searching guide for staring up my business. She did a super job!
Thank you again for a great morning and for your enthusiasm. Can’t wait for the next one.

Hi
Sherry,
It
was great being at your meeting again this morning! Thank you for having me as the featured member.
Your
talk about financial planning for the future was very inspiring and I am going to make an effort to be more focused in this
department. Also, the point you made about, “Ask yourself each day, first thing, what can I do to make more revenue...”
was extremely helpful. I always do as you said, answer emails and phone calls, but never seem to have time to develop new
sources. I was so motivated that as soon as I got back to my office I made a new flyer for the Yoga Therapy classes to post
at my studio (right after I returned emails and phone calls). Thank you!!

Hi Sherry,
I wanted to personally thank you for giving me the opportunity to be interviewed on your Small Business Radio
Show. I truly loved it and could have talked for hours on the subject! I really enjoyed getting the experience and I
checked out the mp3 downloads and it was very valuable feedback for me when I am able to listen to myself.
Maybe we will have an opportunity to work together again in the future. Your pleasant personality and
ability to make me feel comfortable allowed me to totally relax and enjoy the whole process of the interview.
Thanks again, Sherry.

Sherry Thacker’s organization WENS
is structured so each person can benefit from the dynamic people and business members. As a member, you
can maximize your exposure not only through the fun networking breakfasts but also through the many other avenues of exposure
Sherry has created to add excellent value to your WENS membership.
My
involvement with WENS has resulted in contacts that have successfully launched my business. I know my continued involvement
with WENS will be invaluable to my organization. Thank you Sherry!

I
just had to share with the WENS members how good it feels to be apart of this network. The demands of other networking groups
to make weekly referrals just got to be too much. Since I’ve stopped attending these other groups, I feel a big weight
lifted off from my shoulders. One particular networking group pressures its members to produce at least one referral per week
and it made me feel so guilty if I did not perform. (I did NOT give “Bogus” referrals which is something that
happens quite often).
WENS
just works naturally. One of the WENS members is interested in a new line of yoga clothes, so I referred her two people she
could meet! Another member asked
for my flyers and she has already referred someone to me.
Way
Cool!
Thanks
for all your hard work!

I am most definitely
not a morning person, preferring to start my days after 9:00. Once a month, however, when the WENS breakfast rolls around,
I am there—bright-eyed and bushy-tailed—eager to be included and involved.
The incredible talent and energy WENS women have is amazing—and it
rubs off. You won’t believe the warm and empowering spirit unless you experience it yourself, which I encourage all
of you who haven’t to do. I was so moved at my first breakfast that I became a WENS members right there and then.
So many women are turning to entrepreneurship for a career choice—no
a life choice. It is a way for women to balance the demands of being a woman with a way to fulfill themselves, follow their
bliss, and make a living. WENS helps support and promote this spirit in women, providing them a safe environment and enabling
a woman’s natural ability to respond to people openly and honestly.
At WENS you can expect to meet fascinating women,
hear their stories, and make business connections. Everyone is so positive and encouraging. They sincerely want to help you
make contacts; they want to use or promote your services or products. At the breakfast each month the presentations are thoughtful
and informative, the opportunity to meet and greet invaluable. After each meeting I leave on a high—energized, inspired,
and motivated.
And when one thinks WENS, one thinks of Sherry Thacker and of all her hard
work. I thank you Sherry for all your efforts and congratulate you on all your successes. My best wishes for them to continue
to pile up.

Sherry knows how to create wonderful forums that are filled with great opportunities for positive networking and relationship

I've
been a WENS member from the very beginning. Sherry noticed the diffculty women were experiencing in trying to navigate
through the business world, so she formed WENS (Women's Entrepreneurial Networking System).
Not
long after forming WENS Sherry offered a networking breakfast and I attended. From that point on, I was hooked on WENS.
Since
the early days, there are now over 5000 women subscribing to the WENS newsletter and new members are joining every day.
Each WENS member is available to help each other by sometimes being inspirational, other times motivational and always encouraging.
I
have grown within myself as a result of being a member of WENS. I find this new me has more confidence to deal with both business
and personal issues. The confidence I have gained has encouraged me to form a small jewellry business of my own.
This is something I doubt I ever would have done without Sherry and without WENS.
Thank
you, Sherry. Thank you, WENS.

Being a member is a must for me.

invites women into her organization as if she was inviting them into her home. WENS provides professional women a business
community filled with trust, confidence and friendship. Imagine doing business with people you actually like? I have made
contacts at WENS that have been instrumental in the success of Deserving Divas and have brought value to the guests at our
events. Network, share ideas, socialize and pamper the entrepreneurial spirit in you. Statistics show that
the entrepreneurial woman is a growing breed and one that I am particularly proud of, but all work and no play makes Jane

to say a few words about my opportunity to have been on the radio on March 22nd. 2005.
It was a great experience for me. Although it was really nerve wracking,
I had a lot of fun in introducing my business and myself to the general public. I
received many very good feedbacks from my boss, employer, colleagues, friends and family members. I would repeat this experience at any time!

Wow,
Sherry has the smarts and WENS is a great idea. From the first breakfast get together I realized an informal fun, friendly
atmosphere that is great for sharing and networking. I joined the same day. Then I attended the Cash Flow seminar.
You have to ask yourself why finances are not taught in school.
There is so much to be aware of both for personal finances
and especially when you are in business for yourself. I look forward to more events where I continue to meet other members
and have fun sharing information and business opportunities.

WENS is run professionally by
Sherry Thacker.
WENS offers a varied selection of activities and occasions
to network for all types of women, from those just starting out in business to those who've made a success of it. Although
there are so many networking groups to belong to, I made the conscious choice to be a part of WENS. It's worth it.

I
find the WENS organization to be a very powerful networking group. I especially like the fact that women are helping each other. I wish to congratulate the founder
of WENS, Sherry Thacker, for such a great concept. Very impressive! After my very first meeting I made
a business contact from a member who needed information on how to start her business. Since that
WENS event, I have met with her every week to share my 20 year expertise and experience as a business professional. What a
great way to help each other which is part of my ''mission''.

When
I met Sherry Thacker I was impressed from the first moment. I thought, "This woman is a go-getter, a woman with shine, glam, glitz and ability." At least that was how
she came across to me.
Sherry
told me about a little networking group that she'd been working on and because I liked her so much, I joined.
I
wasn't expecting much, since previously, all of the "pay to join" networking groups I'd joined seemed more about creating
tax receipts than about really and truly networking.
I
have to say that all of my expectations have been blown out of the water!
I
can't begin to rave strongly enough or loudly enough about how well put together this network is!
Sherry
has created a milieu where some of the most fabulous entrepreneurial women, I have ever met, come together to share their
businesses, their acumen and their futures.
And
it works.
Since
joining WENS:
I
have made a strategic alliance that will help my business and that of my ally truly grow competitively.
I
have learned many techniques and lessons in business that has become invaluable to me.
I
have made contacts that have given me contacts that have no equal for their value to me both personally and professionally.
I
have had a great time and truly enjoyed myself at EVERY WENS function I have attended and truly look forward to attending
more in the future; in fact, if I could, I'd attend every single one, they're THAT well put together.
And
above all, I have made some truly great
friends.
I
belong to several great networking groups, but WENS is my first choice for face-to-face networking.
A
very special thanks to Sherry for all of her hard work and I really look forward to seeing what the future of WENS has in
store for all of us. I believe that this is a very exciting time to be a member.

Dear
Sherry:
I
am taking a few moments to let you know how much I appreciate attending your events.
Every time I have the opportunity to meet with energizing, supportive women and get to see all the great ideas that
these women are working on, I always wish that the networking time would be longer since there are so many of them that I
would like to meet and have an exchange with. Since I joined your network, I
have made many business contacts, referrals for my website, and some beautiful personal contacts as well. I thank you for putting this network together and am very happy to see it grow. Good luck to all of us for the present and the future !

As a WENS
member, I grabbed an opportunity to participate on “THE WENS HOUR”. The experience was grand, and profitable. The day following
my broadcast, I received a call from a charitable organization. An appointment
was arranged to discuss the opportunity of making money from water bottles.
Negotiations
were completed with the organization taking responsibility to get their own sponsors.
They were short one sponsor, VIP helped them out. During the same week, I had a return call from one of the larger accounting firms, where it was recommended
that I speak with the partner responsible for purchasing. Much to my surprise, my spiel was repeated back to, word for word…
People do
listen, and they act upon what they hear…

I am convinced that doing business by referral is the best way to go.
It immediately adds trust to the business mix. Thank you so much for starting up WENS. Since my short membership,

Sherry Thacker and the WENS community share and represent creative thinking
at it's highest level. The associations and connections to be experienced by networking with this group of
energized women, is a truly powerful and enlightening opportunity.
I was so surprised to see myself
as the featured member in this months newsletter. WENS is one of the most powerful ways I promote my business and I am so
proud to be a member of your association. I rave about you and WENS constantly!

I
liked the 'low-key' structure
and environment of the breakfast. I've been to other networking breakfasts/meetings and found the whole event to be totally
frenetic, over-structured and over-hosted, and have come away feeling that no one was genuinely interested
in helping anyone but themselves! Your meeting was a great change of pace. What a great bunch of women!
Congrats,
Sherry. I think you have a great thing going.

I've been a member since the very beggining and proud of it!
WENS has been the key ingredient to my business's
success. New to the country, with no friends or contacts, WENS gave me the opportunity to build my network from scratch and
to find the finest friends ever. Now, a year later, my network is huge and my business is growing everyday. Thanks Sherry!
Hooray for WENS!

I
would like to take this opportunity to tell you how pleased I am with WENS. I
feel it has made many positive contributions in my life both on a professional as well as personal level.
I
have met many interesting women and have come to understand the importance of networking to grow my business. I also enjoy the monthly breakfasts. The speakers are always
relevant to my home and business life.
My
sales have increased, my networking circle has widened, and I feel that I am part of something great. I have always been the type of person that readily helps those around me, and, now with WENS, I can help
people with referrals.
On
a personal level, I have begun an exercise program which has changed the way I feel about myself. I have better posture and have even more confidence in myself and my capabilities.
Thank
you for the opportunity to grow.

WENS
and its founder Sherry Thacker made me feel welcome from my first interaction with the group. It's a pleasure to take part in WENS' extremely well-planned
events and to interact with the diverse women that make up its dynamic, friendly membership. I look
forward to getting to know the WENS members better at future events and to developing long-term networking relationships with
many of them.

Firstly,
Wens offers me an opportunity to connect with like-minded, local entrepreneurial women. Having that kind of grassroots support
on a professional level is empowering! The WENS newsletter provides a varied choice of networking possibilities that
allow anyone interested, even when their agendas are full, to connect. Finally, the outlay
of the newsletter itself promotes professionalism, dedication and a visual invitation for women to be inspired by their commitments
to the business world.

I
like WENS because it proposes an attractive concept to combine business and personal networking and thereby has the potential to develop mutual
trust and confidence on a very early basis. In participating with WENS we can contribute to build a powerful community, where
we can help each other with various challenges. In future this community can also serve as reliable guarantee to attract
business from the outside.

I
am interested in participating in WENS as I like the idea of networking with other women who are in the same position as I
am - either starting new businesses or who have had the experience of starting a business. Women are great at cooperating
and collaborating with each other and I appreciate the opportunity to learn from these women and to also share some of my
experiences with them. We act
as a TEAM and TEAM stands for Together Everybody Achieves More.

I
joined WENS after meeting several of its dynamic and cheery members during a joint cocktail with Networking Plus, the CLD
and Wens. Networking is not only the principle means of developing my business, but also an important avenue for educating
the public and dispelling myths about astrology, a large part of my practice.
