Mompreneur Spring Tradeshow Review
This morning I had the pleasure of attending the Toronto Mompreneur Spring Tradeshow.
Have been the first time I attended this event, I was pleasantly surprised by its relaxed and laid back atmosphere. Held in the trendy Distillery District, it was a beautiful, sunny, crisp morning to walk the historic streets of the district.
The show itself was smaller than the tradeshows I normally attend, but it wasn’t without inspiration. Having attended alone, it was nice to walk in and see spouses and children of “mompreneurs” lingering with a cup of coffee and taking in the exhibitors.
I had the pleasure of speaking to a number of wonderfully, creative moms running home based businesses. It was nice to speak to other business owners and be frank that I put my lipstick on in the car because I was rushed from four hours of sleep and my little guy was crying as I walked out the door!
I also had the honorable pleasure of meeting Erica Ehm. For everyone in their late 20’s, early 30’s knows that Erica was a popular icon on Much Music. Feeling like a little kid, it was wonderful to speak to someone so passionate about what they do.
I would also like to mention that some of ladies I spoke to at Creative Memories, MOMpowered, Sweetpea Baby Food and Yoga Interlude were also a wonderful group to speak with.
Having had a wonderful time, I look forward to next years’ tradeshow!
Good job ladies!!
