Free Group Helps Work-at-Home Mothers!

Women working out of their homes often feel isolated and lost... Mommy Co groups offer women a place to network, learn, and build their homebased businesses while being the best moms they can be!

Mommy Co. offers Free Help for Work-at-Home Mothers!

Merrill, WI business owner, Alyice Edrich (http://thedabblingmum.com) joins forces with Mommy Co. (http://mommyco.com) to bring networking to a whole new level. Beginning the summer of 2002, Alyice will be hosting an area chapter of Mommy Co, in hopes to unite area mothers.

Founder Laura Thebodeau, took over Mommy Co. with grand plans to launch FREE networking groups across the United States. For every woman who has ever felt isolated and alone in a work-at-home environment, or simply in need of direction for the growth of her business, Mommy Co. has the solution.

Mommy Co. (http://mommyco.com) is both an online and an off-line network of women who gather to help one another succeed in the many roles that follow the titles of wife, mother, friend, business owner, marketer, and public relations expert."

Networking," says Thebodeau is a vital part of any business, especially when working from home. In a brick 'n mortar business, people can walk in off the street to purchase your products or order your services. Very few entrepreneurs will want walk-ins with a home-based business. Therefore, its essential to the life of this type of business to network."

Mommy Co. offers Home Business Networking Groups FREE of charge. The goal of each meeting is to avoid the isolation of working from home, while allowing members to network, support each other, and form marketing groups to increase customer bases. The meetings are designed to be fun, informal "kick-back-and-relax" discussion groups that will help bring more insight to home businesses, while giving parents a chance to unwind and meet other "co-workers". There is never a fee to join or lead a group, so there's no added expense to be a member.

Alyice Edrich, author and owner of The Dabbling Mum.com (http://thedabblingmum.com), says, Mommy Co. is a wonderful solution for those just starting a home-based business. Often, a mother starts a home business to help out with the finances while keeping with her desire to be readily available for her children, but soon finds she is in over her head. Mommy Co. offers a way to balance both goals, while offering support, nurturing, and business direction."

Thats important," Thebodeau asserts. And what makes our group unique is that we offer these services FREE of charge. While there may be costs in running a group, each member donates her time and resources to the success of the group and each others businesses."

I think the site is wonderful for moms who own or are starting their own home-based business. It has been a tremendous help to me personally, and I am excited to spread the news offline," said Cathryn. The site has been very well-received since its launch in January 2001, averaging 50,000 hits per month. Promoting it offline will ensure that more moms hear about the site and can benefit from the information and support it offers."

Mommy Co. may be found at http://mommyco.com where one can find discussion boards, join home business groups, shop, locate freebies, read success stories, and sign up for a free newsletter filled with recipes, family time events, and business growth articles.
