An entrepreneur is a person who is able to recognise a business opportunity, raise the necessary finance, minimise the risk and turn the plan into a profitable business venture”
Brian Isaacs
A mumpreneur is a mum who is able to recognise a business opportunity, raise the necessary finance, minimise the risk and turn the plan into a profitable business venture – whilst simultaneously providing childcare for one or more of their offspring.

In this series I will be considering different aspects of starting and running a business, whilst still being the main child carer.
I will (hopefully) do some case studies with mums that have started their own businesses and investigate the resources available.
I am currently reading ‘Work for yourself….and reap the rewards’ by Brian Isaacs so there will be some discussions based on the content of that and how it relates to being a mumpreneur.
If you are a mum already running your own business please get in contact, so that we can all benefit from your wisdom and insights.

I’d love to contribute to your mumpreneur series: I’ve written a few books to help women who want to go into business - you can see about them at http://www.familyfriendlyworking.co.uk and http://www.prbasics.co.uk.
I’d love to contribute some tips or a ‘how I did it’ if you were interested.
Sounds like a good idea, please contact me via the contact page if you would like to discuss further. Thanks
