Name Your Dummy

Please welcome Mai-Britt and Tea from Name Your Dummy.


 Tell us about your business:


We are the first to introduce the personalised dummy (also called soother or pacifier) to Australia and New Zealand – the child’s name will be permanently marked on the front of the dummy – they are not only cute, but a great way of reducing the spread of germs. No more tags or texta on the dummy. We only sell dummies produced in Australia and Europe – Happy Baby, Baby Nova and Nip – which all conform to Australian Safety Standards.
We are also very excited to be the first to permanently mark Sistema products – we mark KLIP IT containers, Quaddie lunch boxes and drink bottles from Sistema with the child’s name – great for child care and school – no more need for labels or texta.
We also sell things we just think are great products that compliment our personalised products. We got the DryBib and the Bandanda Bib which is a very funky bib that looks more like a scarf than a bib. And we got some funky dummy clips that are specially made for us by Spatz Mini Peeps – they can be used on all dummies, they can also be used to keep the child’s favourite toy or Rusk, so no losing it when out and about. And not forgetting the Nip sterilising box – can be used as a hygienic storage box for the dummy and in case the dummy gets dropped on the ground, pop it in the box with 2 teaspoons of water, give it 60 seconds in the micro-wave and the dummy is sterilised and safe to give the child again – great when you are out and about – can be done at any café or restaurant.
Still not sure what to get – then buy a gift voucher, which is the perfect present for a baby-shower – then the parent can buy personalised products when the baby is here.
All our products are BPA- , Nickel- and Lead free. 


How does your business benefit you:
·         
      It does do something to your self-esteem knowing that it’s totally up to you if this is going to be a success or not. It’s a bit scary and at the same time you are on a high knowing you can do this J - it does gives a freedom knowing that you are your own boss, but also put a different kind of pressure on knowing that you do have to make this work as you still need to provide for your family. But the kids do have Mums that are more happy than when they are working for someone else!
    

      What advice do you have for women looking to go into business:
      
      Important that you do your research so you know the your market and check out how many is doing what you want to do – you do not want to overload the market as you are not going to get any business. And make sure your family is behind you and happy to back you up.
