Mom-Co.com Celebrates One Year Online

Mom-Co.com, the International Marketplace of Mom and Family-Owned Businesses, celebrates one year online with more than 600 member businesses!

(PRWEB) October 24, 2005 -- When Sally Hughes Doherty envisioned Mom-Co.com in 2004, she knew the mom-owned business was a large segment of small businesses online; one which offered the highest quality products, services, and customer service. She also knew many people would jump at the chance to support this business community, but often didn't know where to find them.

"My original goal was to have 300 members at the end of the first year. Clearly, this business community is so much bigger and diverse than most people realize!" What’s more, most of them have a similar story behind the business.

After gaining significant education and experience, today's women who are starting families choose to take entrepreneurial risks in order to have control over their work/life balance. They want their families to come first, but they want more. They want to contribute financially, they want to be well-rounded role-models for their children, they want to exercise their passions and skills, and they want to feel successful!

"We gain new mom-owned businesses every day, and I never fail to be excited to see the professionalism, quality, and conscience that these businesses and their owners represent! Every time I witness a person visit Mom-Co.com for the first time, they show the same enthusiasm as they peruse the products and services on offer."

As Mom-Co.com continues to grow their member businesses, it is fast becoming the definitive source online for conscientious consumers to connect with mom and small family-owned businesses.
