We're Back!

Hello & Welcome!After 6 long weeks of planning and preparation, The Mogul Mom is back with a whole new look and lots of exciting opportunities and offerings.First, I wanted to take a moment to thank you for your patience and support throughout this process. Our dedicated and loyal group of readers are the lifeblood of this company. You're the reason we do what we do every single day, and for you, we are so grateful.Next, I wanted to fill you in on what’s been going on around here…Many of you remember Heather Allard, the original founder of the site. She launched TMM in 2007. In 2013, she sold the site to Megan Barnes who ran it with her team until April of 2015 when she sold the business to me (Melissa Bolton) and my rockstar team and I have been working on the overhaul ever since. Format:Due to circumstances beyond our control, The Mogul Mom has been going through some growing pains. As such, we’ve spent the last couple of months pulling everything together by revamping the layout, design, and flow of the site.In getting ready to relaunch, we did our homework. What we found was that the best model for us was to keep our library of amazing content completely free for public consumption on both our public Facebook page, through our email lists, and on the blog - but to offer a smaller, more intimate community experience for those desiring to conjoin, network, hang out, and do so in.The Power MOB (Powered by Mom Owned Businesses) is a community of like-minded women from a variety of industries, from large to small. We come together to connect, grow, and thrive. Entry into the community is available to those who are members of the Marketplace.If you’d like to become a part of this conglomerate of brainy ladies, simply purchase a Marketplace listing and your entry into the Facebook community is included free! Emails: If you're a subscriber, you’ll be getting your emails a bit less frequently. You’re busy, we totally get it! So, after a several market research studies, we heard an overwhelming request for more content, less often. You’ll receive one to two emails per week from The Mogul Mom. But that doesn’t mean the content ball has stopped rolling. We’ll still be over on the blog sharing the goods regularly. So, instead of sending you several emails a week, your less frequent emails will be more of a round-up of the week over at The Mogul Mom. If you're not signed up yet, you should probably do that now, right here.Need more? You’re welcome to stop by the site as often as you like to see what’s new. The Owner:A dedicated member of The Mogul Mom community since 2011, Melissa Bolton (that's me!) is the new owner and editor-in-chief. A serial entrepreneur and small business owner with more than two decades of sales and marketing experience, I bring solid, proven experience of how to artfully blend business ownership with motherhood. As a wife, work at home mom to two kids, a former finance professional, a long-time online boutique owner, and now the owner of three companies, I understand fully the needs of running a small business (while raising a family), and am here to lend an expert hand to help you do the same. You can read more about me, here. The Look:You’ve undoubtedly noticed our facelift. While we're still packed full of awesome content and information, the new, clean aesthetic promises easy navigation and a super user-friendly experience.The new layout, logo, and design were created by one of our amazing editors, Catherine Haugland. We think it’s pretty awesome. Catherine and I have been co-creating on ventures for many years. She worked tirelessly, hand in hand with me for the past month and a half to bring this to fruition.
