Supporting the global community of work-at-home parents/people
It is really tempting to view Paypal as the ultimate payment solution when you’re starting out with your business. It’s easy. It’s quick and everybody uses it, or so it seems.

Our Facebook Page finally hit 10,000 fans on Saturday evening and in the wee hours of New Year’s Day I was called to attend the birth of a beautiful baby girl (which didn’t happen till 2am January 2nd). Hence why this post is a few days late. It took me a good two days to recover from 28 hours of no sleep! It’s a good thing I only attend a few births a year. On the other hand, I simply love it! Women are amazing! Anyway, I digress! I need to announce the winners of our 10,000 celebration so here they are:

How do you know if the person in the sponsored story calling themselves a “social media expert” is able to deliver what they promise?
In 2011, your votes helped a midwife win a $5000 grant from Sunsuper to fund a medical centre in the slums of Kenya. Your votes also helped make midwife Robin Lim the CNN Hero of the year for 2011. Now I need your vote to help me with the Social Media Examiner Small Biz Dream Contest. In 2011, Support a WAHP gave away more than $20,000 in free publicity and promotions to home based businesses and in 2012, I want to do so much more. You can help make it happen.
“I want to work from home but I don’t know where to start. Can you point me in the right direction?” “I’ve got a Facebook page but how do I get people to visit my page and buy my products?” or “I’ve got lots of followers but no-one’s buying. What can I do to boost sales?” These are the daily questions people ask me that prompted me to write my new ebook: Diving In: Practical tips for starting up and growing your home based business.
I’m a self-confessed Pinterestaholic! It’s lots of fun, as any good social networking site should be, but it is also great for small businesses who use social media and here’s why…

Our fan page has nearly reached 10,000 fans! Now, I know that the number of fans isn’t all ‘that’ in the grand scheme of things. However, we do feel like this is a milestone worth celebrating! So, to celebrate, when we do reach 10,000, I’d like to give away…
