Ladies That Do Networking – About Us
Launching in 2012 in the centre of Hinckley in a small café, which has since closed it’s doors, Ladies That Do had just five members. There was a need for friendly female entrepreneurial support in Hinckley, and so the journey for LTD began.
The group quickly outgrew its location and moved to The Cream Rooms around six years ago with Lisa Mohar, a Family Law Consultant, and Amanda Wright, a Conveyancing Legal Executive, taking over the reins to grow the group further and build on the founders’ creation.
Surviving the pandemic and lockdowns was tricky for everyone, however Ladies That Do remain strong and continued to support one another and their businesses, with most members resuming back to meetings as soon as mixing was allowed. The new meetings welcomed fresh members, and a brand-new location in the centre of Hinckley, The Green Rooms.
Another change was on the horizon for LTD in January 2024 when the current organisers, Lisa and Amanda, decided that it was time to pass the reins along to someone else to grow the group further still, and provide more local business women the unbridled support and potential new friendships.
Announcing Our New Leader
Please do welcome member Kelly Allen, of Admin Assassin, as your new host and organiser of Ladies That Do.
Kelly has been running her administrative support business for the last five years, growing from just a few hours of work a month, to two full time people running the administration and social media support for a variety of small and large businesses in the Hinckley region.
While Kelly is incredibly efficient at all things admin, no one person can do it all and so is being aided with the running of the group with two other long-time members of LTD, Kelly Mayne, of Kellys Web Designs, and Chloe Clark, of Astral Fitness Sports Massage.
Kelly of Kellys Web Designs has been a member of Ladies That Do for several years and has designed and built many of the websites for its members and ensuring the success of their online presences. She has gone from borrowing a book from the library to learn about coding, to running her business for over 15 years and making the lives of website owners so much easier.
Chloe of Astral Fitness Sports Massage has been a member of LTD for five years now and joined just a couple of months after setting up her business, knowing how lonely it would be to be a woman in business and wanting support in her endeavours. She has gone from just one client a month, to being fully booked and taking on an associate to help with the many wonderful people who walk through her doors needing help.
The one thing these three ladies have in common when it comes to networking, is their unwavering belief in the power of female entrepreneurial support and the need for a genuine group of women in business. No agendas, no competition, just complete support in each other when needed.
