I am a Realtor in Denton Cty, and looking for other self employed mom's who would like to have their business promoted in my Monthly Newsletter and Blog.

Managing a family can be challenging, and I understand what adding a business can do. I want to support all the Mom's I can, so if you are interested, please let me know!!

So What Happened?

OK - what an overwhelming response and a BIG THANKS TO YOU ALL! First of all... there is no charge for this. I send out a monthly Newsletter regardless. This month is "Celebrating Mothers Day" (and I'm running our of time, need some organization!!) and I want to give a quick blurb about those of you interested and your contact information. This newsletter will go out to my sphere of 250+ people. In addition, my business partner will be sending the same newsletter to her sphere of 250 people. Because of the response, I have decided to do a weekly "Community Profile" on my blog (activerain.com/abouttrinitygroup) for each of the businesses/Moms. We can get into detail about you, utilize photos, etc. then.
The reason I am doing this is to support all of you, and all I ask in return as that you support me when you can. Wuite honestly - I can use the majority of businesses below, and so can my clients - so you are sure to get a referral eventually!
Please visit my website(s) to learn more about myself and Cindy www.leighbates.com and www.thetrinitygroup.org. If you are interested and have not sent me your information, please email me ASAP at ____@____.com. I would like for this to go to print no later than Wed so I can get them out no later than Thurs.
Thanks for all of your interest!

Hey L.! Just wanted to send a quick response to your request about being self employed.

I am self employed. I have had my business for two years now and am loving it more & more every day! I am an interior decorator. I also have a second business. I am a star consultant with Southern Living at HOME. That has been a great addition to my interior decorating firm. For the first few months, it provided continual start up costs for office supplies, phone bill, etc.

If you are interested, I would love to chat more- so give me a call at ###-###-#### (office #) or email: ____@____.com
