Marti Barletta
The world's foremost expert on today's mightiest market - women

To The Huffington Post, she's "the High Priestess of Marketing to Women;" to TIME magazine, "the Chief Rabbi of the Sheconomy." Renowned business guru Tom Peters calls her "the First Lady of Marketing to Women" and says she "is one of the best presenters, male or female, I've ever seen."

Marti Barletta shows you how to get more customers, make more money per customer and keep customers loyal longer - simply by getting smarter about women. Her first book, Marketing to Women, is available in 19 languages, and her latest book,PrimeTime Women, focuses in on the market's high-spending sweet spot - Boomer women in their mid-life prime – and shows marketers how to use this prime segment's growth, size and buying power to propel their business for the next 20 years. Marti Barletta, president and CEO of The TrendSight Group, and her team are recognized authorities on marketing strategies focused on marketing to women.

As the go-to authority on marketing to women, women in leadership and women's growing role in shaping the 21st century, Barletta has been quoted on CBS, ABC, MSNBC and NPR, as well as in The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, The Economist, USA Today, Fast Company, TIME, Business Week, Inc., and many other publications worldwide.

Ms. Barletta's F500 consulting clients have included Diageo, Ford, GE Appliances, Logitech, Pfizer, Volvo and others. Entrepreneurial clients can access her ideas through webinars, self-study seminars and coaching programs.

A popular speaker internationally, she has enjoyed rave reviews on every continent except Antarctica, including in Australia, Chile, Dubai, Japan and Sweden. She has spoken for hundreds of companies, conferences and associations; and across dozens of industries, including consumer products, financial services, travel and tourism, retail and real estate development, to name a few. She is proud to say that numerous clients have booked her for return appearances.

Her dynamic style, command of her subject and passion for her topic make her a popular speaker. Audiences love her practical tactics tailored to the interests of each audience, her lively style and sense of humor, and her memorable stories about men, women and marketing.
