Overview
From a very serious corporate career in marketing to creating a business based on fun RedBalloon, this is my journey. In this blog I share what it takes to be an entrepreneur and what I have learned - warts and all. I am also the author of 'I want what she is having' which chronicles the first five years of building of a fast growing business.
Very proud to be awarded National Telstra Business Womens Award for 2008 in the Nokia Innovation Catogory

Version Two…
I shared a few months ago about how disastrous RedBalloon Days first website was. But version 2.0 of redballoondays.com.au was not that much better. I remember at the time I thought it was ground breaking!
Development is a journey not a destination.
Oh how little we knew. It is just on five years since we launched the first site, and this site is about four and a half years since it was launched.
