For Immediate Release: January 5, 2010, Philadelphia, PA — In celebration of the release of her first book, Become Your Own Boss in 12 Months: A Month-by-Month Guide to a Business That Works (Adams Media, March 2010) Melinda Emerson has decided to offer one lucky business owner the opportunity to be coached weekly personally by her.
If you are an early stage entrepreneur with one year or less in business or someone with a side hustle looking to go full-time, or someone looking to start a business in 2010 this opportunity is for you. One of the main selling points of her book is the Emerson Planning System, her innovative method for starting a successful small business.
In addition to FREE one-on-one coaching, the selected business owner will receive an autographed copy of her book Become Your Own Boss in 12 Months and the workbook, her life planning journal, and her Audio CD: 10 Things You Must Never Forget in Business. This is a once in a life time opportunity worth over $25,000 to a start-up business. You supply the energy, the idea, and elbow grease–and SmallBizLady supplies the plan.
To enter, entrepreneurs need to write an essay explaining in 500 words or less why they want to be an entrepreneur including their basic business concept, and a 100 word biography. Entrants should also provide a headshot, email address, website/blog, and any social media accounts (Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn) in their contact information. No purchase necessary to enter. Coaching with Melinda will be 50 minutes a week for 50 weeks. The winner will be required to blog weekly about their entrepreneurial journey.
Submissions are due to Melinda@melindaemerson.com by 5pm on February 5, 2010. The winner will be selected by March 5, 2010.
