Overview

Bizzable is a privately held tech company [1] offering complimentary business social marketing, networking, job search and business promotion for 100k professionals. The company was renamed in 2010 from BridgetBits [2] to offer more free services and therefore appeal to a broader audience. The name Bizzable is fictitious and implies the ability to be visible and therefore successful in business.[3] In a market predominantly dominated by males [4], Bizzable was founded by a female, former recruiter and Sales VP, Simone Dominique.
