			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Women looking to combine building a business with their family are turning to party plan business Something Naughty to fulfil their entrepreneurial aspirations.</p>
<p>Something Naughty’s new owner Donna Inns took over the business in December and is lamenting having to turn down requests for parties because there are not enough party planners available. Party planners are currently being recruited in Sydney, Canberra and the Gold Coast.</p>
<p><span id="more-461"></span></p>
<p>New Something Naughty party planners receive commission on the sales they make at each party via their portable shop and catalogue orders, with some planners making enough money for family holidays, new cars and even upgrading to a new home.</p>
<p>“Our party planners say they love running their own business because they can work when it suits them and their families, but the best part is the fun they have running the parties,” Ms Inns explained.</p>
<p>“Something Naughty parties are a recipe for fun and laughter – for the hostesses, guests and the planners!”</p>
<p>Support is offered via the Something Naughty website with a forum dedicated to party planners, as well as regional team leaders and head office communication. Planners can start small as they get used to running the parties and then shoot for the stars.</p>
<p>“Many of our party planners are mums who don’t want to work full-time, but would like to contribute to the family income, or make some money to spend on themselves,” Ms Inns explained.</p>
<p>“We set new party planners up with their own shop to take to parties so they can make on-the-spot sales. It is a fun and well-supported way to get back into the workforce – and planners are their own bosses!”</p>
<p>A Something Naughty Party business can be set up for as little at $99. For more information about setting up a Something Naughty business visit the website to fill in the party planner enquiry form or contact Something Naughty directly.</p>
<p>More than an online store, the Something Naughty website <a title="SN website" href="http://www.somethingnaughty.com.au" target="_blank">www.somethingnaughty.com.au</a> has a chat room, forum, party bookings, lots of interesting items to browse and buy and competitions.</p>
<p>Something Naughty also has a social media presence. Visit the Facebook fan page: <a title="SN Facebook" href="http://www.facebook.com/snparties" target="_blank">http://www.facebook.com/snparties</a> or follow on Twitter: <a title="SN Twitter" href="http://www.twitter.com/snparties" target="_blank">http://www.twitter.com/snparties</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>From making school lunches, to running a national party plan empire, Coomera business woman Donna Inns marked the beginning of summer by taking over the reins of Something Naughty and has big ideas to grow the business.</p>
<p>After 10 years as a stay-at-home mum to her three children, Ms Inns set herself a new challenge to be a business owner, as her youngest starts school in 2010.</p>
<p><span id="more-421"></span></p>
<p>Something Naughty started in Australia two years ago, but has grown in that time to have Party Planners based throughout the country. Ms Inns plans to expand the business by taking on new Australian planners and building online sales.</p>
<p>Specialising in adult products, such as lingerie, games, potions, books and even furniture, the business is seeing a spate of party bookings as customers look for something special for their spouse’s Christmas stockings, Something Naughty director Donna Inns explained.</p>
<p>“We’re approaching the time of year when everyone winds down and looks forward to having some fun over the Christmas/New Year break,” Ms Inns said.</p>
<p>“Something Naughty’s Party Planners are busy preparing orders in time for Christmas and our online store has been very popular. Our parties are also a huge hit for girls’ nights out, hen’s nights and even trivia nights with a bit of a twist!</p>
<p>“I have big plans for Something Naughty’s continued growth, which include making the business an everyday name that customers think of first and know well. I plan to expand the network across the country and build on the successful party plan model,” she added.</p>
<p>Ms Inns officially took over Something Naughty on 1 December and is currently in the process of transferring its headquarters from Victoria to her Queensland base. From here she will oversee her team of Party Planners, run the Something Naughty online store and market the business.</p>
<p>More than an online store, the Something Naughty website <a title="Something Naughty site" href="http://www.somethingnaughty.com.au" target="_blank">www.somethingnaughty.com.au</a> has a chat room, forum, party bookings, lots of interesting items to browse and buy and competitions.</p>
