New Rules of Business; be there or be left behind…
Hello fellow entrepreneurial mothers
Recently I had the pleasure of attending Dale Beaumont‘s fabulous free seminar called “New Rules of Business“…
Dale, as you may know, is not only an award-winning entrepreneur and 16 times best-selling author, but he is the one who invited me to be part of one of the 16 books, namely “Secrets of Inspiring Women Exposed”.
Having learnt so much from him going through that experience, and because I had such a great time and learnt so many more wonderful things at the seminar, I wanted to share it with you. To find out more and discover exactly what it can do for you, click on the link below now: http://www.NewRulesOfBusiness.com.au/Attend
I really think it will make a big difference to how you Build your Mother of a Business, so if you like what you see register online. Then once you attended let me know so we can share notes.
Warm Regards ME!

Carole Middleton: The Entrepreneurial Mum Who Raised A Princess
With thanks to www.workingmother.com…
Behind many major events, there is often a working mother making things happen. In the case of the upcoming royal wedding that woman is Carole Middleton, Kate Middleton’s entrepreneurial mum.
The elder Middleton was a stay at home mom when she launched Party Pieces in 1987 in the UK. Kate was 5 at the time and Carole landed on the idea for the business when she was unable to find affordable party bag presents for her children’s parties. The business grew to the point where her husband Michael quit his job as a flight dispatcher to help run it.
Now of course Carole is in the news for her royal connections, but that doesn’t mean her achievements as a working mother are any less admirable. The business now boasts 30 employees and visits to the company website surged 163% when William and Kate announced their engagement.
Read more about Carole Middleton in a recent Newsweek article.
A grant opportunity for entrepreneurial mothers…
Pleased to be able to tell you about the launch of the Huggies® MumInspired® Grant Program . Huggies want to take your innovative parenting ideas and turn them into a business reality. Huggies will be awarding 5 grants of $20,000 to the mums with the best ideas that nurture the relationship between mum and child by making their lives easier. Ideas need to be suitable for any stage from pregnancy up to 4 years old. That’s $100,000 in funding available!
Your idea could be just that, an idea! Or it may be that you have already set-up the business on a small scale and need some advice and funding to take it to the next level. Either way, Huggies can’t wait to hear your ideas. You will need to complete a MumInspired submission form and submit your idea between 15th March and 1st May 2011. Be sure to check out the MumInspired pages on our website too as they contain lots of information and resources on setting up and starting your own business. We also feature the stories of the Mums who have been awarded grants in the US so if you’re unsure as to whether to submit an idea, reading their life changing stories may be just the inspiration you need to do it!
Also, pop a reminder in your diaries now as Huggies will have a Celebrity Mum available on Thursday 17 March from 1-2pm on our Huggies Facebook page for a live chat! She will be ready and eager to answer all your questions about the MumInspired® Grant Program as well as anything else you may want to ask her.
Learning from Lionel Logue, The King’s Speech…
The latest from aCE talentNET consultant Elliot Epstein of Salient Communication…
SPOILER ALERT:
If you haven’t seen the Geoffrey Rush/Colin Firth movie The King’s Speech yet, then I recommend you go and see it and be aware that this article will disclose its characters and plots.
The King’s Speech has some great lessons for us in how to sell as well as consult and advise senior level clients.
This true story revolves around two key characters, King George VI and Lionel Logue, an unorthodox Australian Speech Therapist.
The King reluctantly ascends the throne after his brother runs away with Mrs. Simpson (you remember the story or were you staring at that cute girl/boy in class when this piece of history was being taught).
The King has an awful stammer which is not a great presentation technique when you’re about to galvanise the nation with your words to face the onslaught of World War 2.
After feeble and failed attempts by so called ‘experts’ to remedy the King’s stammer, he is dragged by his wife (the late Queen Mother) to see the odd Antipodean, Lionel Logue.
Does any of this sound familiar so far? Companies that have tried in vain to solve important problems despite numerous attempts with four or five suppliers, suddenly arrive at your office. Now what do you do? read on…
