When I started my business as a consultant with Tomboy Tools I quickly took what knowledge I had and created a website for myself. I was pleased with my efforts - managed to keep it current and available for visitors.
Happy with the accomplishments made over the last year, I'm especially thrilled with the changes that are coming from a big step I took more recently. If you want to succeed, you must stretch yourself and learn! I've been reading, attending web seminars, learning new methods for running my business, and networking with hundreds of incredible women (many with their own small businesses). And now all kinds of wonderful things are popping out of the woodwork!
I find myself being invited to do Tool Parties and participate in events that I had never heard of before. Invitations are popping into my inbox asking me to attend special events where I'm meeting women that have founded remarkable internationally known companies (Heather Maclachlan (founder of Epicuria and 2007 Business Woman of the Year), Sandra Yancey (eWomen), Tracy Clark (Bridghead), and remarkable authors (like Roslyn Franken, author of The A List: 9 Guiding Principles for Healthy Eating and Positive Living), and ladies that have broken through the glass ceiling in technology (IBM, 8D, and others, with The Honourable Helena Guergis, Minister of State, Status of Women Canada).
With this evolution, I looked at my website and decided it didn't fit anymore. So I went to work and late last night I posted my new website at
www3.sympatico.ca/donaldson www.toolpartiesbykaren.com. I love the new look, and can't wait to hear your comments.
