Business is Booming! :)

Ok, well maybe not BOOMING, but Creative Insight Design of CT is surely spreading her wings! Soleil and I are in our office right now, and I really shouldn't even be blogging, but I just felt like expressing my joy about being able to work with my best friend day after day, and being able to be with my daughter (as opposed to working full time out of the home, for someone else.) Now that I am freelance writing for the local newspaper, ReminderNews, it is helping me get out in my community and network for my business! I met the mayor of the city of Norwich (where my office is) and Chris Coutu, founder of American Warriors, a great non-profit organization who works on raising funds to help WWII veterans. We haven't even had to advertise yet - all of our work is given to us through the power of WORD OF MOUTH.

I am just feeling very grateful today. Adding to my elation was a call from a woman whose organization I wrote a story on last week. She loved my article, and gave me so much praise. I truly feel like a real writer now. And business owner. And mommy. I feel accomplished. I will give myself a pat on the back today. It's tough work when you work for yourself, but it's something I am passionate about. And we all know passion is important for keeping dreams alive.
