Hi everyone,
Fiona here with an update on how WOMOW's been tracking. It's been a while between posts but WOMOW has continued to grow with more members and more ratings entered every day. We're now inching our way towards 5,000 ratings - halfway to our first target of 10,000 ratings.
It's extremely exciting to find out that some of the businesses on WOMOW are now getting new customers that are finding them through their WOMOW listing.
I had a hair colour and cut at my hairdresser last week (who I have of course rated on WOMOW from a previous visit), and they told me that they've had several new customers that have found them on WOMOW. Click here to see Synergy Hair's listing on WOMOW.
Even more exciting was when I spoke to Misty from Misty's 1950's Diner. She told me that...
"Since Misty's Diner was first rated on WOMOW, our business has grown substantially. I regularly track where our customers hear about us and in one night alone, new customers from WOMOW accounted for over $600 in sales - that's almost one third of our revenue! The power of word-of-mouth truly is incredible and if you provide a good service, the best way to let others know about it is by getting your cusotmers to rate you on WOMOW. It gives me goosebumps when I read some of the great things our customers are saying about us!"

And believe me, it gives me goosebumps to hear feedback about WOMOW like that! In just a few months, it's fantastic to know that WOMOW is helping businesses that provide a good service to be found by customers looking for exactly that! Great service really is the best form of marketing!
Well, that's all for now. Wishing everyone out there a great week,
Fiona

That's great, Fiona! It's
InnaA — Mon, 11/12/2007 - 17:22That's great, Fiona! It's amazing that businesses are now getting to know about WOMOW and care about their rating. Have you considered "The Best of WOMOW 2007" type of award or list? It could be great for a business like Misty's Diner to display a poster in their window visible to the outside promoting WOMOW and their restaurant at the same time.
Looking forward to seeing you here soon.
Inna.
