Posted 6 months ago Hello everyone, I'm new to WomanCo. first time in the discussion forum. stepping out into entrepreneurship is very frightening for me. I'll be the first in my family to do so (or even attempt). full of ideas but have no clue as to were to start. I am in need of a mentor or some excellent advice and was wondering if i'm in the right place. Thanks, Cherece |

| Posted 6 months ago Rigsby - Just want to bump your post back up because I know there are several career/life coaches on here who'd love to help you. Also just tons of women on the site who are self-employed and can offer their experience! Daniela

| Posted 5 months ago Hi Rigsby, Becoming an entrepreneur is very scary but also exciting. There are some great resources right here on the Womenco site. I recommend you join the group Self-Employed Women as a start. You don't mention what business/industry you plan to focus on. Have you made that decision yet? |

| Posted 5 months ago Do as much research as you can via the internet. There are many great websites and online groups dedicated to entrepreneurs. There are also a host of podcasts and other resources available to entrepreneurs. Check Meetup.com for local entrepreneur meetings. Also, on July 9th my jobseeker-oriented podcast, The Savvy Jobseeker will be covering the topic: Transitioning from Employee to Entrepreneur.

| Posted 5 months ago I have been an entrepreneur for a long time and currently work with women starting out. I have belonged to many groups over the years, and key to success is to play where you want to be. What do I mean by that? . If you are trying to attract a certain customer show up where they are. If you show up at all the free events the majority of people who show up can't afford more expensive events and only want to trade with you – it is tougher to find the customer there. If yo want your business to make $200,000 a year, show up where they are! Ann M. Evanston, MA CEO Zena Enterprises
