#WOW Jacqueline Gold is a fan of Me Finder!!

Yesterday was a crazy day in Twitter world. Jacqueline Gold – Chief Executive of Ann Summers and Knickerbox – chose Me Finder as one of her three #WOW businesses of the day.

#WOW or Women On Wednesday is a campaign which Jacqueline launched on Twitter to support women who have started their own businesses. Each Wednesday between 1pm and 3pm, she asks women with businesses to tweet her an overview of their company and a link to their website. Jacqueline then select her 3 favourites and retweets these to her followers.

It was just after school pickup and I was in Topsy Turvy softplay at Brent Cross with a friend and our six kids (between us). I shrieked! I couldn’t believe I was reading “My #WOW winners this week are @ClaireShowTell, @StyleCompanion, @_SkiSquirrel” . Wow wow WOW indeed! I then had a a lovely tweet from Jacqueline to say

“Well done Claire, as a mum myself I love this idea, good luck with the rest of the week”

Sam (7) was calling out his Pokemon score on his DS this morning, shouting out numbers as it went up and up. I felt the same excitement looking at my Twitter followers! My only concern is that I don’t upset anyone with my lack of Twitter etiquette – as a novice I am very much finding my own way. Thankyou to everyone who is following @ClaireShowTell on Twitter. Having an idea, setting up your own company and manufacturing a product to distribute globally when you’ve never done it before is a hugely daunting task, having a merry band of followers with me makes a big difference. Follow my progress and please talk to me on Twitter @ClaireShowTell or fb!

Thanks @Jacqueline_Gold I am a big fan!!!

    Hi Claire,
    It was pure luck that i came across your article tonight and
    would like to wish you all the very best of luck with this wristband.
    I am a mother of a hearing impaired child and always have a fear
    of losing my child. Tried writing biro on his arm and he always
    rubs it off so this will put some fun and also calming, not to panic
    Environment. I am definely telling all the others mums who also have hearing impaired
    children.

  2. Hi Emma, thanks so much for leaving a comment and for your best wishes, it means a lot to me. The Evening Standard coverage is an amazing start to 2012 for Me Finder & I have had so many sales and enquiries from it today already! I am very grateful to them for raising the awareness of how important it is that our children carry our phone numbers. Take care, cx

“New needs friends” Thankyou to all our friends who’ve supported me so far!

"In many ways, the work of a critic is easy. We risk very little yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face, is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so. But there are times when a critic truly risks something, and that is in the discovery and defense of the new. The world is often unkind to new talent, new creations, the new needs friends."
