We are Mom Entrepreneurs!!

Moms who balance work with family are pretty standard these days but we all know about the growing trend towards the "MOM ENTREPRENEUR". Moms who have decided to start their own gig, generally, in the hopes that the fruit of their labour will allow them the flexibility to stay home/spend more time with their kids.

momstown.ca was founded by mom entrepreneurs 2 years ago. I'm not sure we truly understood what it meant to be a mom entrepreneur at the time but I will guarantee you that we certainly live & breathe it today!

Now via our licensing opportunities, we're helping other moms become mom entrepreneurs by helping them open and own their very own momstown chapter! We're thrilled to be able to expand in a way that allows other women to benefit and create a role for themselves that they couldn't find in the standard corporate world.

If you're curious about mom entrepreneurs in general and see just how many are out there, it's worth a peak at the lists & lists of us on Savvy Mom right now on their SavvyMom Mom Entrepreneur Contest. Each business is described and it's utterly inspiring to see all the variety of companies out there spawned by ambitious mamas.

momstown.ca is listed in the Mom Entrepreneur Contest and we would LOVE YOUR VOTE. As cheesy as this sounds, it's a popularity contest like Idol, and the more votes you get, the better your chances at winning. There's even a vote-o-meter to check out the progress (I think we could be in the running but we definitely don't have the most -- YET!). We need your help!

Please help us reach our goal. Winning this contest would give momstown additional national exposure and help us open more momstown chapters, faster, across the country. Don't you think there should be a momstown everywhere??


HUGE thank-yous from all of us at momstown for taking the time (it takes just 1 minute) to support us.
