Hanna Vanderloo launched her gift concierge business, Prezzie Gift Co., in Edina in November 2024, offering design-forward, curated gift options for individuals, businesses and events.
How did you find out about the Business Women’s Circle (BWC)? I learned about BWC in spring 2025 after reaching out to local event planner Amy Zaroff. I had connected with her to introduce my business, Prezzie Gift Co., and explore potential partnership opportunities around client and event gifting. Even though we hadn’t met before, she was incredibly generous with her time and mentorship. During that conversation, she encouraged me to look into BWC and pointed me toward the community. That introduction ended up opening the door to a really meaningful network of women founders and business leaders.
How can female professionals and business owners benefit from BWC? Having a resource like this is incredibly important. The leadership from Lani Basa and Rachel [Vassar] is outstanding. It’s more than networking—it’s real support, real relationships and real momentum. I would highly recommend the organization to any woman in business or entrepreneurship who wants community, accountability and access to experienced voices who genuinely want to see each other succeed.
