Through Mum PR, I’ve had the opportunity to work with the most inspiring women entrepreneurs and learn from them. Rather than keeping them all to myself, I thought I’d start The Making of An Entrepreneur series to help inspire others in business or aspiring to those just starting out.
If you would love to be part of this and share your story, simply contact us and we’ll send you through the questions.
You’re more than welcome to share this with others in business who you think have an inspiring story to tell.
The series will feature every Friday on the website, which is viewed by media and journalists.

Hi thank you – what a great opportunity. My business Kids Exercise Active Entertainment was started 7 years ago, after witnessing the positive effects that exercise and good eating had on the health of my two oldest children who have kidney disease. Making sure that they keep active and eat a clean diet has turned their health around.
The link between eating right and exercise is so strong and powerful, it is a real passion for me. I would love to share my story with you.

Thanks so much for responding, Sue. It sounds like you have an incredible story to tell. I’d love for you to be part of the series. I’ve just sent you an email with all the details!

Hi Kellie,
What a fantastic idea! Nearly two years ago I decided not to enter back into the regular work force as I wanted to be there for my kids when they needed me or if there were special events on at their kindy / school. So I created an on-line store focused on products for kids bedrooms. I started with 4 product lines and now have 350 products which I sell Australia wide. I would love to be included in your series so I too can share my personal journey.
Kirsty.
Oh wow, Kirsty. What a story. Will send you an email now. Would love to hear more. 🙂
Hi Kel – at the beginning of last year I decided to start Mumpreneurs Online as a way of supporting Mums with online businesses. I started my first online businesses five years ago after my husband was injured at work and I had just had our third son! Within the first 9 months I had replaced my full time wage and was only working part time hours! I have since launched the Mentoring Mums Online program which is a online business training program with a fabulous faculty of experts to share their knowledge and skills…
I’m on a mission to help other mums and would love to be part of your series… Thanks!
Sounds perfect, Fiona. Will send you the details now via email.
Thanks! 🙂
Hi! I am Cassandra Head Campingologist and Creative Media Artist (yes Head is my surname and I am in charge!). Rainbow Beach Hire-a-camp is my home based business where you can hire an already set up camp or camping equipment. I am a mother of two boys, Dan (15) and Tom (8) and wife of Ashley, a Commercial Fisherman. I was never a camper but married into a camping family (hunter/gatherer, fishing, shooting – you get the picture)! You could say I slept my way into camping! In order to get me camping Hubby would do everything to make his Princess comfortable! All I had to do was sit with a glass of champagne & smile (even that was hard at times!)
I soon saw what a fantastic experience camping was, particularly for kids & blokes! It is total break away from the everyday routines and demands. The kids experience a real freedom from structured play and intensely stimulating activities and can be real kids. Having a teenager wanting pocket money but not willing to make his own bed also lead me to start a business that could involve all the family. It also fitted in with Mummy duties and school hours. So son now makes other peoples beds and we have made camping accessible to more people! I guess most women can see the irony of this! I went from being a “Princess” to encouraging more “Princesses” to take their families camping. We truly believe that camping is a very important part of a child’s rite of passage to adulthood. We also believe that today’s kids are tomorrow’s caretakers of our National Parks and protected areas. To care for them they must first value them and to value them they must first experience them.
I love being an Mumpreneur because I still participate in the workforce, be a stay at home Mum, have some flexibility and even take my kids to work in the field with me. I love what the internet and social media have done to bring the big wide world into my home and connect me with other inspirational women. Mothers are very creative and resourceful and being a Mumpreneur is extremely rewarding.
Great story, Cassie. I love it. Will send you the details to be part of the series now. Thank you. 🙂
Hi Paula Kuhnemann, Born Smart’s Marketing & Motivation Mentor here:-) I created online magazine connect2mums for mums & mumpreneurs when I was bedridden with chronic pian in 2009…I formed the AusMumpreneur Awards that same year and then sold the business when it became too big for an unwell solo operator. Since then I have consulted with WAHM’s and created Smart Woman on FB only….this has grown into a full time Marketing mentoring Business from that single FB page. I have just launched http://www.born-smart.com to reach a wider community of men and women whose lives I want to influence positively and with impact. I work with Entrepreneurs now ranging fro WAHM’s to Celebrity Personal Trainers to millionaire biz owners.
