In this week’s interview with another Baby Boomer who works from home, and also works outside of her home, I had the pleasure of talking with Melanie Kissell, founder of Solo Mompreneur.
Melanie spoke of the challenges and successes that she has faced while working from home. But her persistence, dreams and determination has taken her to the next level. This interview is enlightening, fun and loaded with insight and information.
If you would like to contact Melanie, or learn more about her, you can reach her at Solo Mompreneur.






What a joy and a privilege to be here on Bloomin’ Boomers, Cindy.
I had a blast being interviewed by you and I want you to know that I support you in encouraging and inspiring baby boomers to come online and highlighting those that have taken the leap!
Best of success to you,
Melanie

Wonderful interview gals. Mel..I like your 4C plan. Building relationships with your customers as well as folks in your related niche is really the first step toward success. It’s like opening the first door to the other 3Cs.

Hey Kathy ~
You’re a gal with keen insights. Yes — you’ve got to get people to “knock on your door first”! None of us can expect an ounce of success without taking the initiative to build relationships as our highest priority.
Thanks for being here and please get to know Cindy. She’s a terrific lady with a wonderful mission!
Melanie

Thank you, Heather!
And, Cindy, just so you know …
I’m a big Heather Bestel fan! She’s a dear friend who’s known as the “Queen of Calm” and the “Mistress of More Me-Time”. We met during a 30-day blogging challenge. And now Heather is working diligently on a new project called, “Magical Meditations for Kids”.
You should hear her voice! She’s got a beautiful accent.
Hugs,
Melanie
