Ready To Use Quotes "Technology provides an unprecedented opportunity for mums to work from home - for themselves. The internet makes it possible for us to market ourselves, deliver our services and scale our businesses in a way that simply wasn't possible before" Mel McGee, founder www.supermummy.com "Having an information based business means you can transition from serving clients face to face to providing virtual services. It's not what you know it's what you do with what you know!" Mel McGee, founder www.supermummy.com "It's about un-multitasking! You must let go of any guilt and embrace delegation. So this is less about working for yourself and more about having others do the work for you, leaving you to do the work you really love to do" Mel McGee, founder www.supermummy.com "Success basically comes down to 'how-to' strategies, not luck, and modelling someone's success strategies can give you a short cut to results. Don't think 'I don't know how she does it' - find out how she does it!" Mel McGee, founder www.supermummy.com "It's important to get out of 'overwhelm'. To get a business off the ground that will feed you emotionally and financially you must identify your real priorities, make some space in your life and focus on an action plan. Procrastinating will just keep you stuck in 'overwhelm'." Mel McGee, founder www.supermummy.com
