If all of this home time makes you feel ready to move — now or later — then this post could save you thousands of dollars down the road.
Getting into your dream home can be stressful — and expensive. *cue flying money emoji*
That’s why The Mama Ladder® loves Homie. Not only do they powerfully stand by their mission of helping people save money in the process of buying and selling homes, but they truly care about supporting women-owned businesses. We’ve seen them in action! Read on for ways Homie has supported us and other mom entrepreneurs.
The Mama Ladder + Homie = The Perfect Pair
During our virtual #MamaSpringBreak 2020, we were thrilled to welcome Homie as our Gold Sponsor. Even when COVID-19 conditions forced us to pivot our in-person retreat into an exclusively-online event, Homie stuck by us. Amazing, right? Consider us Homies for life.
So why Homie? Streamlined, simple, and tech-savvy, Homie is the way real estate should be. Their dedication to helping families save $$$. What’s more, they believe in moms, families, and strong values, and their team includes a host of incredible, inspiring women. See? We knew you’d love them, too.
How Homie Has Helped Real Women-Owned Businesses
As a superstar sponsor of #MamaSpringBreak, Homie offered invaluable insight and resources for mamapreneurs, including a $250 Business Boost for attendees. Truly a BIG deal. Mama-owned businesses have already seen the benefits of the Boost. Here’s how three of them used it:
homie helped SHANNON Invest IN HERSELF
Shannon Shearn, founder of Savage Wellness, utilized the money to continue the forward momentum in her growing business.
“I wanted to make sure this money didn’t just get put into my business account — it was important to me to apply it to really help me make some big strides as I rode the momentum from Mama Spring Break,” said Shearn. “I have wanted to hire a VA to help me implement strategy and knock things off the huge to-do list for months now, so this was the perfect boost to tip me over the edge and get me to take care of me and help my business at the same time. Woot woot! I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. And I love that I have something really meaningful and tangible that I can accredit to this $250 business boost. Thank you!”
homie helped catherine get business EducatioN
Catherine Bennett, president of Backpack Marketing, used the Homie Business Boost to expand her skill set through education.
“I used my Business Boost to take a design project management course I've had my eye on for a while, as well as an Instagram course that made me accountable in showing my business's face on social media,” said Bennett. “Both of these courses filled gaps in my confidence. So grateful!”
homie helped kasee open the doors for wholesale
For Kasee Bailey, Homie helped her expand her small business, Longhand Pencils, a whimsical pencil shop that turns pop culture into an unforgettable gift. With the Business Boost, Kasee was able to open up her store for wholesale orders. Did she make some one-of-a-kind pencils to pay homage to Homie? Absolutely.
Meet Katy, Homie Hero
Katy VanderDoes, mom of three boys and Events and Sponsorships Manager at Homie, was a featured speaker at #MamaSpringBreak. Disconcerted by the price-gouging happening in real estate, she found her right fit at Homie as she embraced integrity in helping people buy and sell homes. It wasn't slimey business anymore — as she started working for a company that believed in helping people save $$$, she could feel good about making money.
100 GRAND THANKS TO HOMIE!
Homie is joining with The Mama Ladder® to give mamapreneurs even more love. As a sponsor of the upcoming 100 Grand Plan™ Workshop, Homie’s making it possible for women-owned businesses to make more $$$ with one-of-a-kind training (backed by a money-back guarantee!) It’s gonna be sweet. We can’t wait to see you there, Mama.
