Starting a micro business from your dining room table has never been easier within the landscape of social media, but it takes more than a Facebook Page to turn your business into a viable and sustainable enterprise.
So, what happens is, people give up. Don’t be one of them!!!
The US Small Business Administration (SBA) states that more than 50% of all small businesses fail in the first year. Given that 68 percent of all Australian small businesses and 66% of US small businesses are home based enterprises, and that home based enterprises are the fastest growing economic sector in the global economy, this is a travesty.
After taking on Support a WAHP in early 2011, it became clear to me that there were few reliable and credible resources out there for people who work from home. I had to learn everything the hard way, (including how to write and publish an ebook), but you can get a massive head-start with the help of this book, saving you time and money.

Why listen to me?
I’m Cas McCullough, a work at home mum of three boys, a birth doula, an entrepreneur and a social media and content marketing specialist with more than 20 years experience in developing and implementing media, marketing and communication strategies in industries such as health, NFP, tourism, business banking, major events and the arts.I started my first home-based business at nine-years-old, making $20 a week selling home-made felt bookmarks and toys for a local craft shop in my then home-town of Hahndorf, South Australia. I have chosen to work from home, mainly for lifestyle reasons.
In 2008 I nearly lost my life after an ectopic pregnancy and it was a wake-up call that I needed to cherish every moment with my growing family and live life to the max. I own two successful businesses: Mumatopia (which I started up myself) and Support a WAHP (which I adopted in February, 2011). Every day I interact with hundreds of people who work from home via our Facebook Page, which has 11,400+ followers. I have learned from the best in the social media business in order to share the most up-to-date, quality information and resources with other WAHPs and every day is spent researching and reading to stay abreast of news in this rapidly changing industry.
This year I also started up a new consultancy and training service to empower other women solo entrepreneurs to ditch the sales pitch and use their unique content to attract and serve their ideal clients through my content marketing cardiology system and I co-created and hosted the Startup Small – Dream Big – Grow Fast international telesummit (August 2012).

29 reasons why you should read this book
From the Mums Delivery review…
“The Diving In eBook is brilliant. It has been written well and is easy to understand. I felt the author was sitting next to me talking it, it was great. Little did I know what was really involved in running your own business. I love the tips, references and just the pure honesty of the author. She writes it in a way that she is talking to you and has a genuine passion to see everyone succeed, but to do it in the right way so that you do succeed. Even down to self care and taking time out for you and your family, just one of the reasons why you chose to run your own business from home.”
