Highheelshotflashes.com brings positive and enlightening information and stories to women 40+ or anyone who is interested in keeping in touch with life.
The “Hot Style” feature of the month, Patty Tobin talks with High Heels & Hot Flashes about what makes a woman over 40 more successful as an entrepreneur. As a seasoned marketing consultant turned jewelry designer, Tobin says it is a combination of passion, experience and hard work that makes the difference. A shining example of this, Patty speaks about how her age has empowered her to be more confident later in her career. “I’m the typical 70s kind of girl who was ‘going to make it after all’,” says the designer. “The challenges we were up against then, I felt then. So now in my later career, reincarnated, there are obstacles, but nothing like what I experienced as a younger woman.” Read more of Patty’s interview and check out this not-to-be-missed blog…

Today’s cover story on the front page of the Money section in USA Today highlights jewelry designer and life-long entrepreneur, Patty Tobin. The story, “Never Too Late to Start a Business: Older Americans Fan Entrepreneurial Spark,” comes on the heels of last week’s Index of Entrepreneurial Activity, a report released by the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation, which found that Americans between the ages of 55 and 64 represented the second-largest jump in entrepreneurial activity in the U.S. from 2008-2009. Echoing the study’s findings, Patty Tobin tells USA Today that her prior work experience as a marketing consultant and the co-owner of an environmental contracting firm in Upstate New York was an important success factor in her current jewelry venture. “I know how to deal with banks, how to read a lease, how to hire people and how to manage people,” says Tobin. Her positive, never-give-up attitude resonates with the many small business owners across the country who have chosen to ramp up a new business at an age when many slow down. “You can teach an old dog new tricks if they’re willing to learn, and I am,” says the designer.
