As a published writer, Traci has written articles on book publishing and promotion, how to get free publicity, blogging, social networking, marketing, business planning, how to write news releases, and other topics. In addition, she has written several business profile pieces. Her articles have appeared in many publications, including national and local magazines, newspapers and websites.
After graduating from the University of New Hampshire in the early 90s, Traci worked for a number of companies in different marketing roles. In 2000, Traci started Bisson Barcelona, an image management and public relations firm catering to authors and entrepreneurs. She grew the company to six employees over a period of two to three years and worked with national authors and publishing firms throughout the United States. As a creative employer, Traci was recognized by many publications, including the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB), The Oregonian and the Associated Press, for her innovative employee benefits package. In 2008, she was voted a Top 10 Boss by Women’s Business Boston Journal.
In 2008, she founded The Mom Entrepreneur (TME), an online support group for women balancing motherhood and growing a business. In that same year, Traci began advocating for family life in the state of New Hampshire through her blog, Enjoying Life with Kids in NH, which highlighted the reasons why families with young children should consider making the state their home. In 2009, she added The Mom Entrepreneur Co-op Shop (TMECS), and in 2010 co-created a contest to celebrate entrepreneurial moms and all they do to birth and grow a successful company while balancing family life called the Business Baby Shower (BBS). In 2013, she sold TME, TMECS and BBS and began focusing on her next adventure, Family Travel Stories.
Traci has been featured in several publications and on radio and TV stations for her accomplishments in business. A full listing of her published works and media appearances can be found below.
