Moms are major influencers in our communities - over 75% of moms make the purchasing decisions for their households!  As a mom, I know you spend a lot of time researching the right decisions for your families - whether it's the search for a new doctor, the best school for your kids, or even a search for legitimate companies that allow you to work from home.
