Thoughts about Touchpoint 2009
September 17, 2009
I’ve been enjoying thinking about last week’s Startup Princess annual conference, Touchpoint and connecting with all of the new Startup Princesses who attended for the first time. There was such a wonderful energy there of love, friendship, and enthusiasm for entrepreneurship among the attendees and presenters, sponsors and exhibitors. I’ll mention a few highlights…attendees (Here’s what attendee Ann Webb thought), we would love to hear your thoughts as well. (Photo: Heather Bailey)

We are so excited to feature Janice Croze, co-founder of 5 Minutes for Mom, this week. Janice is one of our three keynote speakers at Touchpoint and we are thrilled to have her speak on Networking to Build Relationships and Partnerships. Enjoy getting to know Janice and we hope to see you at Touchpoint!
In 2006, Janice Croze and her identical twin sister, Susan Carraretto, created 5 Minutes for Mom.com and it quickly became an essential, go-to site for moms that entertains and informs, while promoting the online mom community. The Wall Street Journal listed 5 Minutes for Mom as the 2nd top parenting blog.
5 Minutes for Mom now includes a network of family friendly sites: 5 Minutes for Books, 5 Minutes for Special Needs, 5 Minutes for Parenting, 5 Minutes for Going Green, 5 Minutes for Giveaways and 5 Minutes for Faith.
Janice and Susan have also just launched a new site designed around threaded video conversation called Say it Face to Face.com.
Janice has two children, a seven year old son, Jackson, and a one year old daughter, Olivia. In addition to owning 5 Minutes for Mom, the 5 Minutes for Mom network of sites, and Say it Face to Face, Janice and Susan also own two successful e-commerce stores, www.PedalCarsandRetro.com and www.A-Rocking-Horse-To-Love.com.
Janice and Susan are active on Twitter with over 6,500 followers on their @5minutesformom twitter account. Janice also tweets at @janicecroze.

It is simply too good to miss.
So last week, a mere hour before the early bird deadline ended, I signed up for Startup Princess Academy in Disneylan
d.
Even though I will be speaking at Startup Princess Touchpoint September 18th in SLC and even though my schedule is packed so tight I get tired just looking at my calendar, I decided it would be madness to miss out on this unbelievable chance to network, learn and share with top online marketing experts like Maria Andros and Alexis Neely in such an intimate setting.
Quite honestly, Kelly has developed an unbelievable opportunity. To have a chance to interact with such A-list women is priceless.
I just have to go and absorb everything I can from these incredible women – and it doesn’t hurt that it is all happening in the happiest place on earth! I can’t wait…
Janice Croze
