Ask VentureMom

Having been both a nurse and a homeschooling mom I have experience researching a variety of topics and a general sense of curiosity. I would like to research topics for authors, any ideas how to proceed?

Hi Holly, I am a Jewelry designer and have just moved my business from Europe to New Canaan. I am looking for a web designer somewhere in Fairfield County. I have been on google for the past 2 hours, but with NO success. I have not found a site that appeals to me... they all seem so industrial. I am looking for a designer that is chic and stylish do you have any suggestions? I would greatly appreciate any help you can offer. thank you so much! PS I absolutely adore your website, it has great flair!

Best,
Win Koestler

Dear VentureMom, I have an invention for those who push strollers and need some advice on the steps to producing a prototype and manufacturing a product to sell. I do not know whether I should meet with venture capitalists or try to fund a project on my own. I would like to start small and then grow.

Do you have any advice on the steps I should take?

Dear VentureMom, where do I begin? I have this great idea, but don't know where to start. I have a million things running through my head....name for my venture, how will I market, do I need a website, am I prepared...what do you suggest as a good first step to put my idea into motion? Thanks! Stacey

VentureMom, I don't know what I want to do. I love to cook, but can't think of how to make that a venture.
Thanks,
Suzie
