Momcorps.com = $1.3 Million in 2006
January 18, 2007
Headquartered in Atlanta, GA, Mom Corps is a matchmaker between companies looking to recruit and retain top talent and experienced professionals looking for flexibility. The company was started by Allison Karl O’Kelly .
O’Kelly, 33, can relate. A certified public accountant with an MBA from Harvard, she left the management track at Toys R Us after having her first child. She tried being a stay-at-home mom for three months but said it wasn’t for her. She started a bookkeeping business from home and got more work than she could handle.
She gave the extra work to her at-home mom friends, and Mom Corps was born. The company is too small to be profitable yet; O’Kelly expects profits next year. Mom Corps takes a cut of the paycheck when it lands work for a client.
Although Mom Corps has been active for just over a year, “word is spreading very quickly,” according to O’Kelly, and she believes the company is “opening employers’ eyes” about flexible work arrangements.
And the numbers prove the story. Her company had $1.3 million in 2006 revenue.
