Your "hook" is that women entrepreneurs often think much differently than men do. So featuring a male as one of your experts and having a MAN do the Twitter webinar is out of step with your image. I know seeing a guy's picture as a featured "expert" on the LWL home page elicited a negative response from me. I can't believe I'm alone. I've been in LWL since going through the incubator in 2007. I've recommended LWL to MANY people and commended the approach to women thinking of starting their own businesses. If this is the direction LWL is now taking, it appears you're turning into just another entrepreneur's website, and there are plenty of those around. MAJOR disappointment for me.
