Mompreneurs: Making Connections

Being a Mompreneur may be one of the hardest jobs to handle. It is possible you’ll get overwhelmed and lose track of why you started this business in the first place. Just remember, the benefits are endless. EmmeNation is bringing you some tips on how to make sure you are as successful at home as you are in the world of business.

1. Network, network, network!

Get out there and broaden your horizons! Social networking is a powerful tool no matter what sector you are in! Join social groups and participate in discussions that interest you. Get your brand out on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, LinkedIn, Instagram, and Pinterest. Once it is out there your followers will come. Networking groups is an awesome way to show your expertise and make yourself known and trusted in your field.

2. Be driven by passion

If your work is driven by passion you won’t mind putting in 10 hours of work a day. Your passion and excitement about your company will show through your work and your audience will follow. Do not just base your company off of income, consider doing something that you truly love.

3. Build true relationships

Unlike networking, building true relationships is about maintaining good friendships with your customers and business related partners. If you treat everyone as you would treat a friend then you may ask their opinions on how you can give better services. Building a true relationship will help you build a lasting business.

4. Create frequent MeetUps

Meetups are a great way of meeting people that have similar interests as you. All it takes is an hour out of your week to set up a conversation that will help you and your business grow. You will get an abundance of information on what other like-minded people are doing and build long lasting friendships with these people. Meetup.com is a great service that connects like-minded people daily.

5. Give service

Building relationships is not only about how they can benefit you. By helping others and giving service, you can build life long friendships. You never know when a good deed can help out in the future. Always be kind and be of service to others. A great example of giving and receiving service is the role of what mentors do.
