She is the author of the groundbreaking book, Marketing to Women, which is now available in 15 languages, and co-author with Tom Peters of Trends (July 2005), who named her MVP/BizGuru of 2005. Her new book, PrimeTime WomenTM: How to Win the Hearts, Minds, and Business of Boomer Big Spenders, breaks the story on the unprecedented buying power of women in their prime (ages 50-70) and details why this “silver bullet” segment is the prime source of business growth for the next two decades. Her dynamic style, command of her subject and passion for her topic make her a popular speaker at corporations and conferences. Combining gender expertise, marketing experience and a lively sense of humor, she delivers eye-opening insights that audiences find enlightening, entertaining and actionable.
As the recognized international authority on marketing to women, Barletta is frequently quoted on CBS Evening News, ABC Money Matters, MSNBC’s Squawk Box and NPR’s Talk of the Nation, as well as in the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Fast Company, Business Week, Entrepreneur and many other publications worldwide.
A Wharton MBA, Barletta founded her consulting think tank, The TrendSight Group, to help companies pull ahead of the competition by boosting their marketing, sales, recruiting and retention effectiveness with women. The TrendSight Group utilizes Marti’s proprietary GenderTrendsTM model to deliver solutions that connect with women consumers, corporate executives and business owners. The firm’s clients have included Wachovia, Neuberger Berman, Deloitte Consulting, Volvo, Mercury, Ford, Trade Secret, Toys R Us and Logitech.
