Welcome to the Babes in Business Yahoo Group! We are made up of small business owners who generally work in craft, art, or other creative fields.

This board is a place for you to swap tips about your small business, share info about shows or events related to the craft/art/creative world, and network!

The best part of the Babes in Business is that we meet on the Last Thursday of each month. BIB was founded by Jennifer Perkins of Naughty Secretary Club in 2003, and she has recently handed over the reigns to Anne Marie Beard of *annemarie* Style for the Individual.

We now have close to 400 members and new ones are joining all the time. Please check the calendars or email Anne Marie, (annemarie_beard AT yahoo.com), to be updated on the meeting time and location.

Please note anyone is welcome to join the group, but the focus is for small crafty business ladies who hand make their wares. The group has jewelry designers, boutique owners, handbag designers, knitters, clothing designers and more.

To join the group, please provide a few lines of information about yourself, your business, and why you want to join. This is to cut back on the large amounts of spammers who attempt to join. Thanks! Anne Marie
