MEMBERS: Why we love our business

We had some wonderful entries for our “What we loved about our business” competition.

The winner of the $50 Flicker candles goes to Victoria Vincent  from Victoria Vincent Photographer, a member of our Central Wellington Venus Club. www.victoriavincent.com

Congratulations to all of the women who entered and shared why they loved their business,  it truly reminds us of what is great about running our own business.

I love to hear from my clients that ‘they cannot believe the difference it has made to get their workstation and workplace set up correctly so they can work comfortably’. We often put up with all sorts of ‘niggles’ which can become significant pain when at work, which affects our work performance and how we cope with life.

As businesswomen we haven’t got the time to be putting up with pain as well, but it often takes just a few small changes to make a world of difference. My biggest reward is hearing those clients who are now pain free when I check back with them!

Best wishes,

What I love about my business….there are so many things, where do I start!
Firstly I love the fact that producing highly effective online website solutions can literally transform business for organisations and I love happy clients that make more money once I have become involved with them.
I also love meeting the large number of people I have the pleasure to work with and the wide range of business and people “types” that I get to know and understand.  I really do make friends whilst working which is a real bonus.
I love the fact I am self employed and the challenges and the joys that brings with it.  Not having to apologise to an employer when your children are sick or carefully plan my 20 days leave a year is priceless.  If I choose to be mother help at kindy and work until midnight to make it up it is my choice and no one else needs be involved.  Yeehaa!
I really do love what I do as well as loving the benefits it brings to me personally and financially.

Regards,  Loren

I love my business because it allows me to love my life more than being an employee.

I love my business because I love helping people grow and improve their businesses.  I love being able to simplify things for them so they can spend more time loving their own business.

I love the independence and freedom of having my own business.  I love helping and encouraging women; networking with peers, working with clients.  I love hearing I made a difference; that they feel more confident, more empowered.

What can I say … I LOVE IT!  I love the fact that the more I put in the more I get out.  I’m my own boss and I make my own decisions!  Even though I work long and hard I can still balance my lifestyle to suit my values.  I love the fact that I help people and there is nothing more satisfying than receiving testimonials from happy clients.  Not too mention the number of friends I’ve made a long the way!!!!

I am in love with my job, and was actually thinking about how happy I am to be doing what I’m doing about 15 min before I opened your email. Hows that!

I am just so happy and pleased with myself that I have created a business where I am able to take beautiful photos of people and especially people in love.  My clients are always left with a smile on their face at the captured memories and I am the one that does it for them.  How amazing is that!

I could be working for someone else, but that would feel like a job. Working for myself is a job, but it just feels like I’m hanging out with amazing people doing what I love.

I hope your day is as amazing as mine.

Thanks Victoria V
