Social Networking for Mompreneurs – Moms to Follow

by 25 Comments

Social networking for work at home MomsSocial networking is fulfilling in so many ways. It’s wonderful to have the company of other women who also work from home to share life and business insights with.  Interacting on Twitter and commenting on blogs is also in turn a fabulous way to gather back links to our own website and promote our own products and services.

I have found women entrepreneurs to be a generous and helpful group.  They are savvy company to keep and we all can genuinely relate to each other which is precious because working from home can be isolating.

Here is a great list of women who both blog and are on Twitter that I have found to be approachable, particularly insightful or creative, or just plain fun to be around:

    It is just wonderful what you are writing about. I do think that it is very useful for many women who sit at home and bring up their little children. Nowadays it can be difficult to keep the family without earning money, and moms who simply can not leave their children without care are in a difficult situation. In this case your article can help many of them, as I think that it is very convenient to stay at home with children and work at home in your free time. They can take care for their children and work. Thank you for your article. I am sure it will help many women.

    • freelancemom

      Yes, there is the irreplaceable gift of being in the home for the children — and equally the amazing experience of pursuing our creative and professional ambitions. I love the idea that women are at a place now where they don't need to choose between being home and working. We can have the best of both worlds — just hopefully afford a housekeeper! ;-)

    You have a good list of fabulous women. It always excites me whenever I see women put up their own businesses and become independent. Mompreneurs have great insights into marketing gaps and the effort they put in to juggle their time to balance home and business is really amazing. Cheers to all the moms who give it a go! I hope we will continue to see the rise of mompreneurs as future leaders of our businesses and communities.
