Once upon a time – a business was for life – not so anymore!. Having worked hard in my 30 year teaching career – during which I ran my own nursery for 21 years – I turned to becoming a book lady – selling children’s books via stalls at local events and book parties. When the book company moved the goal posts after I had built my business for 7 years, I decided to leave and then at the age of 58 I had to look for new ways of earning an income. I found other home based businesses and set up several. I decided to spread my eggs into several baskets. There was criticism but at the end of the day – it’s my life and I have to do what’s right for me. What is right for me is not necessarily right for others. I love my life and I love the businesses I run. I regard it as a shopping mall where I offer a range of products, business opportunities and great networking opportunities that help other people. I promote them via social media and they work 24/7 – so my shops are open while I sleep. I would like to share these all with you
