Are you currently heading a woman-owned business?: about to start my own business

Where did you get your idea for your business or the business you'd like to start?: I'm currently in the process of becoming a life coach

How long have you been in business? (Or when do you plan to open?): I am looking to up fully up and running by late 2010

Describe your product or service, or the product you plan to introduce to the market.: I help people who are seeking to improve where they are today, whether it be self-improvement, career, finances, relationships or just help overcome obstacles. I am the cheerleader on our shoulder who will celebrate every accomplishment you make no matter how smal, including the one that you dont recognize as an accomplishment. I am here to help you create a guide map of what or where you want to be in life.

How did you (or plan to) fund your business startup?: Credit cards, personal savings

What was (is) the biggest hurdle in getting your business off the ground?: My biggest hurdle is my JOB. I still have to put in an 8 or 9 hour day at the office. Allocating time and keeping focus sometimes takes it toll at the end of the day.

What has been your biggest mistake?: Not acknowledging sooner that the JOB is always going to be JOB to me because its not where my passion is

Are you willing to answer questions from other women business owners about your business?: Yes

I hope you make lots of "friends" and then you can query them for advice about how to progress as you decide on what type of business is right for you. There are a few other life coaches on the site. If you click on "members" and do a search with key words, you'll find them. There are also a few other people selling products from major distributors. Lynne Marian sells Mary Kay. She may be able to answer some questions about how to be successful selling such products. Good luck! And please pass the word about this site to all the women business owners you know!
