As a mom of four, Holly Jones knows how crazy the parent life can get! Earlier this summer, she reached out to ASBTDC because she saw a need for a business that supports busy families. After talking with consultants at the center, attending various workshops, and lots of planning, Love, Mom was brought to life.
The mom-owned concierge service offers help to mothers in all stages of life so that they can multiply their time and focus on their loved ones. Love, Mom services have three areas of focus: moms of college students, moms of growing kids, and new moms. From a birthday surprise delivered to your college student’s dorm, to light cleaning, to meal plans, to a date night, you need to check out the services that Love, Mom offers.
Working with the ASBTDC, Holly has been able to flesh out her business plan and legal details, create a pricing strategy, get professional photography, and receive continual support from the center as she navigates the early stages of running a small local business.
“I am so thankful for the opportunity to work with consultants through ASBTDC! They began by listening to my heart, jumped right in with market analysis, recommended a marketing firm they’d closely worked with for branding/logo/colors, provided a financial workbook and linked spreadsheets to guide me in projections and recommended expenses, helped me narrow my service offerings, provided SEO and social media assistance (with guides and lessons!), excellent photography, and guided and cheered me through my final launch. They’ve been absolutely vital to my business existence! I honestly couldn’t have done it alone. This service for moms is so close to my heart, I was in tears in multiple meetings. Do you have a business idea? Trust ASBTDC to guide you. It’s been an incredible experience.”– Holly Jones, Founder and Owner of Love, Mom
