Women are the heart of families. They are the tastemakers, trendsetters and influencers and as such, they deserve to be valued and heard across all industries.
And we are here to help make sure their voices are heard through The W Factor.
What is ‘The W Factor’?
The W Factor is Haig Barrett’s new Women’s Division.
Our mission at The W Factor is to bridge the communications between women and brands by using analytics, segmentation, and strategy to help redefine female identity.
Our goal is to start a real dialogue. And spark conversation about what women really care about by bringing various businesses in manufacturing, luxury, lifestyle, consumer products, and academia in connection with women.
Companies working with women and their evolving needs stand to receive greater influence over what women purchase. It sets them apart. And we want to help your company be on the forefront of the evolution of women in the consumer market.
