Work It
We know how challenging you’ve found it to build your business.
You’ve been heads-down trying to figure out how to make it all work. You’ve spent countless hours tweaking your website and adjusting your marketing materials and searching for that ever elusive word-of-mouth success. You’ve focused on how you want your customers to feel and what experience you’re providing for them. Every day, you struggle to find customers and then keep them coming back for more.
You also struggle to navigate the negative self-talk waters. When overwhelm hits – and it hits hard – you hesitate to reach out to even the most supportive people in your life because…well, you’re overwhelmed. You don’t wanna bother anyone. You feel like you should have the hang of this by now. Between the pull of your family’s needs, the friends that want your attention, and the business’s neverending to-do list, you’re not sure that you’ve got what it takes to keep going.
Oh, how we understand what you’re going through.
Between the two of us, we spent 30+ years trying to figure out how to make it all work…and feeling defeated all the time. It took obstacles and fears and misteps to realize that what we were doing wasn’t working.We’d worked so hard on the doing that we didn’t realize how much we needed to step back and focus on the being.
We’ve been able to create successful, sustainable businesses and know that you can, too. You just need a guide.
- Imagine a world in which you feel less stressed out, less overwhelmed, and less burdened to go-go-go all the livelong day. It’s possible.
- Imagine a business that you feel is fully in your control, one that doesn’t own you or your schedule, one that makes you money and lets you spend time with your family. It’s possible.
- Imagine a life that you can live to the fullest, one where you shine as a strong and confident entrepreneur that sets a beautiful example for your children by modeling what a happy, satisfied business owner looks like.
Let us guide you.
We won’t be dreaming together. We’re not going to theorize or pontificate or wonder, either. We’re going to work it. We’re going to commit ourselves to taking action. We’re not going to find success – we’re going to create it.
Together with a small group of 8 business owners, we’ll work in group and one-on-one settings to change your mindset. You’ll find the time to get it all done and you’ll really do it.
Let’s transform the way that you do business.

Experts
Jill Salzman turns the mundane into inspiration and transforms the impossible into the achievable. Through defying expectations and breaking the rules, she succeeds in inspiring small business entrepreneurs and helping women figure out what works for them by using meaningful action to create positive results.
It took graduating from law school for Jill to quickly discover she wanted nothing to do with lawyer life and built a music management firm instead. She then launched and sold a baby jewelry company. Running two companies simultaneously while experiencing the joys of motherhood full-time led to the founding of her current venture, The Founding Moms, the award-winning platform for mom entrepreneurs to build better businesses.
Jill is the author of The Best Business Book In The World* (according to my mom) and the Amazon best-seller, Found It: A Field Guide for Mom Entrepreneurs. She’s shared the speaker stage with Richard Branson, Sheryl Sandberg, Daymond John, Marilu Henner, and Desmond Tutu among others, and professed her love of Eddie Vedder in her TEDx talk on 11/11/11. She hosts the top-rated entertaining business podcast, Why Are We Shouting?, a question she asks herself daily. CNNMoney calls her a “mommy mogul.” MSN Live says she’s a “Cool Mom Entrepreneur We Love.” Forbes rated her a Top 100 Champion Small Business Influencer and voted The Founding Moms one of the Top 10 Websites For Entrepreneurs.
When she’s not speaking to audiences in patterned leggings, podcasting from her basement, or inspiring subscribers in 23 countries and counting, she’s on one of two crusades: getting an interview with Stephen Colbert and convincing her daughters that cassette tapes actually existed.
Melissa Ford is a master business and life coach who helps people grow their leadership, impact, income and joy. Her clients range from highly committed coaches and entrepreneurs to executives and career changers. With over 20 years of experience, SERVICE is the cornerstone of everything she does. This value shines through in her books Living Service: The Journey of a Prosperous Coach, and as a contributing author to the #1 Bestseller, When All Boats Rise: 12 Coaches on Service as the Heart of a Thriving Practice.
