Clever Mamma Profile: get SET 4 IT

This week say a big Clever Mamma hello to Sally Evans from get SET 4 IT. Based in North Lakes in Brisbane, this busy mum of two little cuties, offers training in Microsoft Office and Social Media plus even more!

1. Tell us a little about yourself and your business... I’m Sally Evans and I’d love to help you become more competent and yes, more confident in your computer usage. Perhaps you’ve been dying to get into social media but you’ve heard all the horror stories about viruses and identity theft. Or maybe you’re tired of feeling lost and unsure of yourself when you try to perform any functions beyond the very basic in Microsoft Word, Excel or PowerPoint. You might want to do away with the whole learning caper and have documents created for you... job done! Whatever your need, if it has to do with social media, Microsoft Office or browsing the Internet, I’d be happy to help!

2. How did your business begin? I established get SET 4 IT in July 2011. SET stands for ‘Sally Evans Training’ which means there is a part of me in the brand! The reason I started the business was that after months of searching for a part-time job, I realised that I could not find a job that also let me be a real mum to my two pre-schoolers. So I decided to create myself a job where I could do what I have a passion for (sharing my knowledge) and also look after my two beautiful children Rhys, 4.5 years and Sofia, 2 years.

3. The bits I love... I am really still setting up and hope to gain my first client very soon. So far have loved creating my logo and seeing my website come together.

4. The bits I not-so-love... All the money I have spent without any returns yet!!! Also hate the sales side but without that I would have no business.

5. Any tips for other Clever Mammas? I don’t really have any words of wisdom yet but in my past experience of juggling work and motherhood, its all about setting and keeping your priorities. My priority is the welfare of my family first then my business. This also means being very organised and using sleep or down time to catch up with my business activities.

6. Devonshire Tea versus Coffee & Cake??? Can I have both??
