DALLAS, TX – [Date] – Dallas Professional Women (DPW) is excited to announce the successful completion of the Business B.O.O.S.T. workshop series for 2023, a transformative 9-month program dedicated to nurturing women entrepreneurs, business professionals, non-profits and solopreneurs. The program has concluded with the selection of an exceptional winner, Maria Taylor a Dallas-based solopreneur and owner of AOK Specialties, who will receive $15,000 in services from the DPW community to further her entrepreneurial journey.
This comprehensive program featured monthly workshops focused on vital business topics, attracting a diverse community of women-owned, women-led or women-centric businesses with a shared commitment to business growth and success. Participants gained invaluable access to mentorship, strategic frameworks, and practical steps to stabilize their businesses and enhance profit margins.
Maria Taylor, the 2023 program winner, shared her gratitude and experience: "My participation in the session has brought about significant improvements across various facets of my life and business. Through this experience, I've honed my ability to prioritize tasks effectively, successfully implemented the data dump method, and now navigate my daily responsibilities without feeling overwhelmed. I've embraced a newfound sense of organization, thanks to my business vision board and the establishment of SMART goals, allowing me to proceed one step at a time."
Maria emphasized the program's impact on her business, particularly its insights into understanding the customer journey and crafting a well-defined marketing strategy. She highlighted how these lessons have allowed her to streamline her target market and develop products that cater to her customers' needs.
The Business B.O.O.S.T. program doesn't just focus on business fundamentals; it also prioritizes personal growth and empowerment. Maria expressed enthusiasm about the prospect of having her own Board of Directors for the next 12 months, including influential women in business like Zondra Evans, Founder of Zondra TV Network, and Irum Jones, President of Dallas Professional Women, who will provide guidance and accountability.
President Irum Jones, reflecting on the initiative, stated, "Amber Jamshed and I started Dallas Professional Women with a vision to connect, empower, and uplift women from all walks of life. We believe that when women support women, incredible things happen. I am immensely proud of the over 150 businesses and nonprofits that have joined us on this journey, working together to create a community where dreams are realized, goals are achieved, and success knows no bounds."
Steve A. Klein, Business B.O.O.S.T. guest instructor and accomplished author, inspires a thriving community of determined women in business. With a compelling discussion on leadership and grit, he ignites the flames of empowerment and ambition among our members.

"The best advice I can give to any professional looking for resources is to take advantage of this incredible opportunity to learn from experts on how to grow and scale their business and take their leadership to the next level. As a former Soldier, I can tell you we never go to war ill-prepared and unequipped, and business is no different. Equip yourself with the tools you need to succeed and don't try and go it alone. Your business deserves nothing but the best support out there and DPW is that support." stated DPW Business Member & guest instructor JJ Mahoney.
