Meet the mums…
Susan interviewed 30 business mums, at various stages of business development, from all across the UK and Ireland. Their amazing entrepreneurial insights are captured within the book but nothing can beat actually listening to them as they candidly speak about the triumphs and tantrums of being a mumpreneur.
Spotlight on Helen Wooldridge of Cuddledry:
Meet the first of our featured Mumprenuers. You can read all about Helen and her amazing business partner Polly here on their great site http://www.cuddledry.com/about-us
Excerpt:
Susan: Cuddle Dry is a fantastic product. I wish I’d had it when my children were wriggling out of the bath.
Helen: So do I.
Susan: There’s a lot of stuff on your website for budding entrepreneurs, people that want to get out there and do it for themselves. I think that’s a really wonderful thing.
Helen: Well, we did that because so many people contact us. Partly because having been on the Dragon’s Den programme, obviously a lot of people just know about us from that and we get I’d say at least once a week, at the minimum, we get somebody getting in touch saying I’ve got this idea. And we always, always, try to meet up with people or chat with people or whatever because others have helped us so much. And we just thought it would be a good idea to put some general information up, just to show some of the things that we’ve learned and to help a little more.
Susan: Yes, that’s great. For our listeners can you give us a run down of Cuddle Dry; how you got started, what motivated you to design this product and how you got the business set up?
