More than selfie

On all our netwalks, we try and pause for a moment to take a group photo and a *selfie. This gives you some easy and great material for your next social post and is a step towards growing your network.

*Selfies are always optional, so please never feel you or your child need to be in a photo if you don’t wish to be.

A lot of networking organisations are very formal, and all about swapping leads, or touting for business, but Freelance Mum is just so much more than that. It’s a group of lovely co-workers (friends!) who absolutely have your back. And I absolutely have had work through getting to know this community, not only by being booked by some of the other lovely freelance mums, but being recommended by them to people outside of Freelance Mum too!
