Press Release Body = (Calgary, AB) August 21, 2006 - Calgary's work at home moms
(WAHMs) can now find affordable start-up advice, networking opportunities and
marketing ideas, thanks to Calgarywahms.com, an online business club designed
exclusively for them.

Britt Raposo, mother of two little girls and founder of the forum, knows that most
work at home moms don't have a lot of money to spend on business development. She
explains, "Most clubs I\'ve considered joining were well over two-hundred dollars per
year to join. I don't have that kind of money to fork out." Ms. Raposo keeps club
memberships relatively low - from twenty to fifty dollars a year.

Members meet regularly online and IRL (in real life) to encourage each other and
share their ideas. Sara Dahlman, owner of Meadowlark Marketing, has been a member of
the WAHM forum since its launch in April 2006. She writes, "I never knew what I was
actually capable of until I joined this group. The creativity and gung ho attitude
that is produced when we get together in person or in the forums help motivate and
inspire me to do things I never thought I could."

Other mom-owned companies - Meadowlark Marketing, The Mompreneur Magazine, Crystal
Ink and Willms Business Solutions - have partnered with Calgarywahms.com to provide
members with discounted trade show booths, advertising, graphic design and writing
services.
