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

Congratulations Naomi, I can't wait to get a copy!
Hi Naomi,
I've just come home this weekend with your new book. My husband bought it for me at Dymocks as I've finally thought of an exciting new plan for a business after many years of talking about different ideas. I think this one is a go-er and are really keen to get started. I haven't been able to put your book down, it's so inspirational! Thanks for the encouragement and good tips and ideas I haven't even finished the book yet, but nearly! I was inspired to get on the internet and look up your site, which I had vaguely heard of before, but now know a lot more about! I definitely feel more encouraged to make the dream happen this time!
Thanks, Lynne
