With the abundance of social networks geared towards mompreneurs, and with new communities popping up daily it is impossible to keep up with all of the new and popular networks out there. You could spend days, maybe even weeks or months just browsing all the different social networking sites dedicated to women entrepreneurs and work-at-home moms.
To help narrow your search here are my top 10 social networking sites for mompreneurs that provide amazing resources, tips, strategies and education for mompreneurs and work-at-home moms.
Mommy Millionaire – hosted by bestselling author and mompreneur extraordinaire, Kim Lavine. Mommy Millionaire is an online business coaching community of both male and female entrepreneurs.
