Simone Brummelhuis of The Next Women business magazine interviewed Fox Business Network anchor Sandra Smith about her job and what she likes about covering business news.
Here is an excerpt:
Our audience is filled with smart, curious people who care about their money. I specifically target an audience that wants to put their money to work with my branded segment called “The Trade”. It is a segment about actionable ideas to make money in the stock and commodity markets.
