Why do you think your content resonates so well with your readers? 

We offer support to single mums from all walks of life and for every stage of the single mother journey.    

Starting with the crisis period when people first separate and need legal and property support; leading onto moving home/schools, financial help, mental health support, advice on careers and study, buying a home and helping our kids; finishing with dating again, re-partnering, blended families and step-parenting. 

For this reason, there’s support for all single mums. 

All of Beanstalk Mums content comes from a space full of positivity and inspirationIts design educatesempowers, and reinvents the single mothers’ role that makes women feel positive, capable, in control, less alone and happy.

What are your plans in Australia?  

In Australia, I plan to keep on doing what I’m doing and focusing on strengthening current relationships and steady, sustainable growth. 

What role does Awin play in your expansion strategy?  

Of all the revenue streams, affiliate advertising is my personal favourite. It’s a win-win because it takes nothing from my single mother audience and creates semi-passive revenue flow throughout the website. 

Working with Awin, I hope to create work with new businesses and reinforce current marketing partners to form long-term relationships that can benefit Beanstalk Mums while offering a brilliant value-add for my single mother audience.
