Who is Allison Babb and Why this event?

There are two reasons for this event. A more personal reason and a business reason. Allison Babb shares both below:

Here's the short version of the personal story that's connected to My Sister's House. Several years ago, I unexpectedly found myself facing divorce and single parenting. I'm a 44yr old single mom of 2 sons here in Atlanta.

Being a single parent led to me starting a single parent support group at my church. It was then I became aware the many complex challenges that single moms face. I led this single parent group for 5 years before relocating to Atlanta, Georgia. But my passion for supporting single moms stayed with me. I'm

I am self-employed as a Business Success Coach to solo entrepreneurs at GreatSmallBusinessAdvice.com. For quite some time I’ve had a secret heartfelt vision to merge my business life and my desire to support single moms and women in transition. Nudged by our current economic conditions, this coming October, I’m excited that I’ll finally be doing exactly that.

And here's the other BIG reason...

In my work as a small business coach, I see 3 entrepreneurial camps in the midst of this shifting economy...

Those who give up, throw in the towel and close their doors for good (sadly, this doesn't have to be)
Those who do nothing differently... and they hope and pray they make it (not a good plan right now)
Those who have an unrelenting, deep hunger for information on keeping their businesses alive and thriving despite this economy... they seek out opportunity and new solutions! (now that's my kind of entrepreneur... high-five to you! :-) )

The solo entrepreneurs at this event are no doubt in camp #3 above. And watch out, we're about to rock the solopreneur world. One hundred plus strong, defiantly marching into entrepreneurial victory despite economic shifts. We refuse to be defeated. We are the ones who will come out on the other side of this "recession" with huge bank accounts and huge smiles.

Why? Because we know the problem is NOT that there's a shortage of business. Instead, there's a shortage of knowledge on how to attract the business; knowledge on how to attract a steady flow of clients, customers, and revenue in this new economy. We see this as a "new economy" not a "bad economy." We choose to focus on opportunities and not on the bad news constantly being thrown at us...

Get ready... this event is beyond exciting! The buzz is building.... the energy is positively high. And you're about to walk away bursting with life-changing, income-generating strategies for your business.
