If you're thinking of starting your own business this Autumn, listen to this interview I did with new freelance site Hire My Parents. Steve and I chat about how I got started, and I share some advice to help you start your own business.
Use of the word "Mumpreneur" OR not, doesn't bother me at all. I answer to all sorts of things ;) lol.
Wasn't it meant to replace the usage of the phrase "Work at Home Mum" with the intention of it portraying mums in business as 'serious business...

Start and Run Your Own Business: Flexible Working Hours Can Help
If you have a job, but want to set up your own mumpreneur business, are you aware of your right to request flexible working? You have the right to ask to change the hours you work and your employer has to listen to your request. You could ask to start and finish work earlier, or work fewer hours, or do more hours at certain times of the year. The benefit to the employer is a less stressed employee.

Jenny Mc said… - I've not read all of your book yet, but what I've read so far has been helpful and given me more confidence to do my own PR and more ideas than I already had myself. I've arranged to be featured in a 'women in business' arcticle in Lincolnshire Pride magazine Feb 2009 (no it's not a gay magazine despite the name :-), it's a local magazine covering the whole county with a very relevant section on homes & gardens which will reach my target potential clients.

Lyndsey said… - Hi Antonia
My name is Lyndsey, I have a product that I have designed, developed and now had produced which I want to market to the mother/toddler/green market. I would like to the product featured in a mother/toddler magazine and Nikki suggested you may be able to help. Count On It™ is an easy to use, food freshness label which takes the guesswork out of freshness at a glance, to help consumers make the most of the food they buy and waste less of it.
Count On It tracks how long food has been opened, so consumers are able to enjoy all of the product, secure in the knowledge that it is still fresh and safe to eat and subsequently reducing the amount of edible food which could have been thrown away. Food waste and safety is such a current topic which I need to capitilise, so any help or suggestions you may have will be greatly appreciated, for more information visit www.count-on-it.co.uk. I look forward to hearing from you. Best regards Lyndsey

Welcome! I love the beach also, there's nothing more relaxing than sitting on the beach looking at the water and listening to the waves.

I'm closer to Brighton myself - it's so nice to be near the coast but would rather live on it than near it!

- Hi Antonia - great to see you at Web Mums! I have already admired some of your articles over on Leigh Hunts site Internetmumpreneurs.
If you ever want to add anything to the site with linkbacks to yours - then just let me know as I have a seperate area for articles.
I really admire you for having a couple of books under your belt - it's something that I would love to do ......one day. I'm just waiting for someone to pop about 6 extra hours on to every day so that I can get everything done!!
Catch up with you soon - I'm off to get some PR tips from your website. :-)
