We Made it Happen! Startup Princess Online Magazine Launch Day

April 21, 2008

All weekend the brilliant and talented Sarah Bray of S. Joy Studios, our site sponsor and emailed each other 100x to finish tweaking and perfecting our new template to bring it “live” today…what an absolute joy it was when I gave Sarah the final “thumbs up” at midnight last night and gave her the go ahead to “turn it on.” Tears streamed down my cheeks because of what it meant to me, to all of us– Startup Princesses who have big dreams, who love to learn and connect, and deserve to have the best site we can offer.

With gratitude and pleasure, we introduce you to our new online magazine, a dream that has taken nearly 2 years to evolve. We hope you enjoy the new style, the easier navigation, the Startup Princess video, and we invite you to share your thoughts and comments. We’d love to hear from you!

We Made a Wish, We Made it Happen… Time to Celebrate!

Startup Princess Kingdom News * April 4, 2008

April 4, 2008

I’ve been neglecting these news posts for a few weeks, my apologies! We have some great news to report today and share!!

Startup Princess.com Getting an Extreme Makeover! Relaunch Planned for April 21!

Startup Princess has FINALLY found a solution to our nearly 20 month old dilemma…how do we develop a website with zero budget? I’ve considered getting a loan, I’ve talked to people about sponsoring it (and bless Sarah Lewis of Findable Blogs who DID sponsor a major site upgrade in 2007 for us and continues to be a great mentor plus our blog sponsor with helping us with widgets and plugins and more).

I’ve wanted a very sharp, beautiful, easy to navigate, and clear site that would demonstrate our purpose and mission of helping women entrepreneurs more effectively. A site that would be easy to find articles, find resources, and find connections… now we’re working hard to relaunch and “make it happen” thanks to a very very affordable wordpress template (only $79!!) to demonstrate we are more than just a blog, we are an organization empowering women entrepreneurs with monthly events, conferences, and more! The template is not enough… we have to customize it and for that we are indebted to Startup Princess Sarah Bray of S Joy Studios whom is sponsoring our complete redesign!! We are so grateful, Sarah! Many many thanks to you from me, our members, and the thousands of women who read this site everyday! Your redesign will communicate who we are and help us to “Express ourselves all over the place” as your business slogan says. We’re thrilled for the opportunity and extreme makeover.

For our Utah members, Janet MeinersApril 17th is our next event featuring Internet Marketing Specialist Janet Meiners… she beat me to publishing about it, here’s her link.

  Startup Princess is an international network committed to empowering Women Entrepreneurs by offering resources for women in business to support, mentor, collaborate, learn from, and inspire one another. In 2006, after struggling to raise funding for an initial startup business venture, Kelly King Anderson recognized an important market niche existed for reliable resources educating women desiring to start and grow successful businesses, thus Startup Princess was developed.

Successful women entrepreneurs understand that for every business venture, they are in charge of creating, organizing, developing, managing, and assuming all the risks associated with their enterprise. That can seem quite intimidating but as other women business owners will tell you, it’s a lot of work, but it’s worth it! Success is within your grasp and Startup Princess is here to help.

First, join as a member of Startup Princess and start building a solid foundation. Membership entitles you to a listing in the Startup Princess Online Directory where we list women owned businesses. You’ll also access exclusive content like articles, videos, and audio straight from your email inbox. Coupled with feature interviews, discounts on events, networking connections, and press opportunities, your Startup Princess membership will give any woman entrepreneur a great start for her business!

Then, take advantage of Touchpoint, our annual business conference for women entrepreneurs. Practical planning meets sky-high inspiration at this high-impact event for women business owners to network and develop their approach to business with wisdom and creative direction from other women entrepreneurs across the country.
