Brag about yourself - what makes you great at what you do?
I love shopping and I have been told I have a good eye. I have three great kids; my youngest being 2. I have tried out many of my baby and toddler products with her; so I know what works/doesn't. I also care about each of my customers needs and wants. I am able to give that personal attention to each customer since I am a small family owned and operated business. In addition, we have great products and we ship quickly. But, most importantly, I take pride in what I do and I truly LOVE my new business!
What types of business contacts are you looking to make?
I would like to make contacts with other small business owners especially those in retail. I am curious what types of social media they use and what has worked or not worked for them. I like to meet all types of people and I like to help others out. I am hoping to find contacts that we can be a help for eachother.

Take a look at this article! What are your thoughts? I have mine, but I want to hear YOURS!

I was on the internet tonight and stumbled across this article, I am very curious about what you all think, take a look and please comment. Thanks!

Hi Rebecca,

I do not do web development or SEO stuff thoug I would recommend Tehilla Hessler (Hessler Solutions a href="mailto:solutions@hessler.co.il">solutions@hessler.co.il ). She is quite knowledgeable. USe my name.

What I do is take a small business like yours and help you to grow it by allowing others to use your name and operational process. Of course you get paid for this pluse you get monthly or quarterly royalties on every sale they make. This is the what is known as franchising. you could have 5  10 15 or more fracnhises acrouss the region or across the country! If this is of interest to you - we should talk. I am in West ORange and we could meet somewhere.

Kol Tuv,

Lou

Hi Rebecca! Thanks for the warm welcome - I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone in the Momtrepeneurs group! I live in Jerusalem, although I do know some people from Yad Binyamin who used to live in my community in NJ.
