When Julie Clarke went into business five years ago, she hit the ground running.
Within a couple of weeks of seeing an advertisement in the newspaper for a Baby On The Move franchise, she had her own business in Dunedin.
Ms Clarke had previously been in the police force, where she was involved with car-seat safety, and also in banking, where she had been lending to business customers and thinking, “Why couldn’t I do this?”.
When she saw the advertisement, she decided there was “huge potential” for such a venture.
Fast-forward five years and her business has been named Baby On The Move‘s top franchise for the fourth time.
