Would you want to win loads of goodies to help your business? Enter the new competition from MumsClub.co.uk, the flourishing online community for entrepreneurial mums. Starting today, is you can sugest your most creative home-based business ideas . The competition is open to all mums; mums with businesses up and running, mums who are considering starting up a business, and mums who just fancy having a go at winning some of the great prizes on offer.

Prizes include a range of useful business services including a practical business planning course and a year’s advertising on the MumsClub site , as well as goodies from lots of mums in business. The special prize will be awarded to an established Mumpreneur who best demonstrates how she intends to expand her business over the next 5 years. The total prize for the whole competition is £2,600! Four runners up will get a copy of A Guide to Promoting Your Business  to help them take their creative business ideas to the next level.

Jane Hopkins, the mumpreneur behind MumsClub says: “The competition is a bit of fun that aims to highlight the achievements of the growing number of mums who run businesses from home, and will hopefully inspire other mums to seriously consider fulfilling dreams of running their own business and encourage them to think up plausible business ideas. MumsClub is all about recognising the extra and demanding constraints that us mums have; we haven’t got time to search the internet looking for answers, so MumsClub is here to guide mums through by providing the essential business information and marketing tools needed to set up and build a thriving business from home.”

A group of established mumpreneurs will judge the competition and will be on the lookout for the most creative and original business ideas. Mums are welcome to enter as many ideas as they wish as long as their business concepts allow mum to be principally home-based to market, launch, and sell their products or services.

The overall winner will receive the services of a website designer who will create and host a website of their choice. The winner will also receive a huge bundle of other prizes kindly donated by mumpreneurs; from a custom made piece of hand or foot print art, a prepaid (and loaded) MasterCard, through to a range of useful business services including a practical business planning course and a year’s advertising on the MumsClub site. Four runners-up will receive a selection of goodies from mumpreneur businesses.

For full competition details and to download an entry form, mums need to go to the Mumsclub Website. Business ideas are to be no longer than 300 words each, and the competition closes on November 3rd at 23.30 pm. The winner and runners up will be announced on 1st December 2008.
