Catherine A. Woods
President and Founder
MediaWest International
Since 1987, Mediawest has been a full service publisher's representative firm headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona. Over the years, we have helped trade and association publishers increase their revenues and lower their costs through successful advertising sales, online sales, custom publishing, reprints and sponsorship sales.
As a full time partner with our publishers, MediaWest works closely with each magazine's staff to achieve our mutual chosen goals. In 1987, when I moved to Phoenix from the New York area, I launched MediaWest with only one publication.
Over the years, however, MediaWest has successfully represented 16 different publications and is quite proud to still represent its very first publication. In 2004, MediaWest was approached by Digital Transactions Magazine to represent their publication in the western territory. With Digital Transactions, I started working in this very exciting and fast paced market of consumer electronic translations. The partnership with Digital Transactions has proven very successful. It is always best to work with a superb organization, like Digital Transactions, so all goals can be achieved with true collaborative effort! Doesn't hurt if you have stellar products to sell!
Over the years, I have met many outstanding women that have been pioneers in this new industry. I hope, as I continue to get more involved with W.net, I can help achieve the goal of mentoring future members. Looking forward to working on the Public Relations Committee of W.Net. Thank you for this opportunity.
