The Questamente Network, Inc. announced the launch of its new dual language website designed for Hispanic business professionals and entrepreneurs in the U.S. The site provides free business information on starting or managing a business in the U.S. through its “Library” of business articles, sample business plans, executive profiles, and its blog. It also allows users to interact and communicate with each other through industry forums and its “Office Party” of themed chat rooms and full social networking features. All content and functions are offered in Spanish as well as English.
“Our site allows Hispanic business professionals to form their own Internet community where they can learn from each other and share experiences and opinions from anywhere in the country,” said Questamente co-founder Kathleen Chitester. “There are already more than 2 million Hispanic-owned business in the U.S. and that number is expected to increase to 3.2 million in the next few years,” she added. “There are also millions of Latinos working in professional positions in other U.S. businesses. Until now, however, there has been little opportunity for any of them to connect online and share their knowledge with each other.”
The website also provides a number of tools to Hispanic business professionals with which they can advance their knowledge and careers such as eBooks on relevant topics like U.S. Business Law, Cultural Diversity in Business, Writing a Resume, and Interviewing for a Job. Additionally a job board powered by LatPro, the award-winning job board for Hispanic and bilingual professionals, provides employers access to the most in-depth pool of Hispanic candidates available anywhere and job seekers the ability to search for opportunities to advance their careers.
Site membership is free to all Hispanic business professionals 16 years of age and older. Additionally, as part of its launch, Questamente is offering a full sample business plan, complete with financial pro formas, free to all members who register in August.

Oh yes, I am so impressed with Hispanic family values. The first value is, before all else, break the law. Next value is to become a parasite in your host country and invite your fellow cock roaches, oops, family, to infest.
And be sure to propagate the myth that mexican family values are comparable to America’s values. There is no value to be found in a people who have sucked a government teat for centuries – be it mexican or American.
Yeah, i really want to engage in business with such consummate liars, oops, family folks.
It is unfortunate that your closed mind has led you to such erroneous opinions. The facts show that the Hispanic population in the U.S. adds, not subtracts, to the economy, productivity, and the quality of life for all. Your refusal to “engage in business” with Hispanics in the U.S. only hurts yourself, no one else. The rest of us Americans will continue to grow our businesses and our lives in partnership with our hardworking Hispanic friends.
It is very sad to see that there is such non-educated mind set out there. We should all be open to other cultures and appreciate the values that each and every one of them has to offer. I reviewed the Questamente Network site, and it seems to be an excellent source for those who want to start a business in order to be successful at it.
