We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Rita Suzanne a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Rita , thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Before we get into specifics, let’s talk about success more generally. What do you think it takes to be successful?
When it comes to achieving success as a mompreneur, there are five daily habits that can make a significant impact on your business growth. Let’s dive in and explore these practices together:
Reach out to a stranger: Don’t be afraid to initiate conversations with new people. Whether it’s through emails, networking events, or chance encounters, connecting with unfamiliar faces can lead to exciting opportunities. You never know who you might meet or what doors might open when you step out of your comfort zone.
Post on social media: In today’s digital world, having a strong online presence is crucial. Share your expertise, showcase your products or services, and let your genuine personality shine through your social media posts. By consistently providing value and engaging with your audience, you can build a loyal following and attract potential clients.
Send a note to someone: Taking the time to send a thoughtful message can go a long way in nurturing relationships. It could be a simple thank-you note to a client, a supportive message to a fellow mompreneur, or even a gesture to show appreciation. These small acts of kindness demonstrate that you value the connections you’ve made and can leave a lasting impression.
Make an introduction: As a mompreneur, you likely have a wide network of contacts. Use your networking skills to connect people who could benefit from knowing each other. By being a helpful bridge between individuals, you not only strengthen your relationships but also become known as a valuable resource within your community.
Comment on social posts: Engaging with others on social media is a fantastic way to build relationships and expand your network. Leave thoughtful comments on posts that resonate with you, share your insights, and participate in conversations within your industry. It’s an opportunity to showcase your expertise and attract like-minded individuals.
These daily habits, when consistently practiced, can create a ripple effect of growth and success in your business.
Success as a mompreneur is within your reach. Embrace these daily habits, personalize them to suit your unique style, and watch as your business flourishes. Remember, it’s the consistent small actions that add up to significant results. So, go ahead and take those daily steps towards achieving the success you deserve. You’ve got this!

Have you ever had to pivot?
Once upon a time, I built a successful career in website design. I dedicated my time and energy to creating beautiful online experiences for my clients. However, the overwhelming demands of life began to take a toll on me. Balancing motherhood, running a business, and dealing with personal challenges left me feeling burnt out and drained.
Recognizing the need for a change, I made the decision to take a step back from website design and focus on regaining balance in my life. For three years, I prioritized self-care, personal growth, and exploring new avenues.
During my break from design, I discovered a deep passion for teaching online marketing. I realized the importance of helping fellow entrepreneurs navigate the ever-changing digital landscape and achieve success in growing their businesses. I immersed myself in the world of online marketing, acquiring knowledge and honing my expertise in various strategies to increase exposure and attract clients.
Eager to share my newfound knowledge, I created comprehensive programs. I poured my heart into crafting engaging and actionable content, ensuring that my students could learn and implement effective marketing techniques. Through my teaching, I empowered entrepreneurs to take control of their online presence, expand their reach, and achieve their business goals.
As I delved deeper into my teaching journey, I found immense fulfillment in witnessing the transformation and success of my students. Their stories of growth and the impact I had on their businesses fueled my passion even further.
However, as time went on, I realized that my love for website design still burned within me. After three years of focusing on teaching, I felt a calling to return to my roots. Armed with a renewed sense of purpose, fresh insights gained from teaching, and a reinvigorated creative spirit, I made the decision to pivot back to website design.
What’s been the most effective strategy for growing your clientele?
The most effective strategy for growing my clientele has been harnessing the power of personal connections and word-of-mouth referrals. By delivering exceptional results and providing an outstanding client experience, I’ve built strong relationships and established a reputation that prompts satisfied clients to recommend my services to others. This organic growth through referrals has proven to be a powerful and sustainable way to expand my clientele and foster long-term business growth.
