"SmartMomGig enables businesses to lower their overhead and increase productivity while utilizing the remote workforce of professional women. Paying for just the work needed allows businesses to be flexible, adaptable, and efficient. This structure also allows women to stay connected to work, update skills, live their lives, and provide financially."
Remote work should empower people. Newfound flexibility in hours and location should lead to greater gains in productivity, work-life balance, and happiness.
Instead of relishing the newfound opportunity and freedom, we learned how vulnerable working women are in times of crisis. Women bore the brunt of the economic downturn caused by the coronavirus. In the US alone, over 2 million women left the workforce, in one year, during the height of the pandemic. Women of color lost many of their gains in the workplace, seemingly overnight. As a result, a move to remote work that should have empowered women worldwide instead put a new obstacle in their path.
This is not how it’s supposed to be. Remote work offers excellent advantages for working women. As the pandemic wanes and businesses worldwide embrace a new era of empowerment and flexibility, women are expected to reap the benefits of remote work.
SmartMomGig.com offers one of the best platforms for women and stay-at-home moms to find remote working gigs. SmartMomGig.com matches stay-at-home mothers, and women with professional skill sets, with short-term work opportunities. Everything is now online and virtual; the work you need done should be, too.
My motivation for starting SmartMomGig.com was my long-standing goal of empowering women to stay in the workforce, update their skills, and help them provide for themselves and their families. As a result of COVID-19, my goal has been reinforced. Seeing the need for women to care for their families and contribute financially to make ends meet has strengthened my resolve. SmartMomGig.com is my answer to doing everything I can to provide a solution in helping women access the tools they need to create their best work/life balance.
Helping women, especially assisting women in the workforce, has been an ongoing common theme throughout my life. It originated with the strong, supportive, and accomplished women who raised me. This mission has evolved through my career and personal choices. My great-grandmother, grandmother, and mother were all strong and accomplished women who instilled in me that you can raise your family and succeed professionally. These don’t have to be mutually exclusive concepts.
SmartMomGig.com empowers stay-at-home moms and female freelancers by providing a platform for them to utilize their skills, create their own schedules, choose the amount of work they want to take on, get paid a fair amount for the work they’re doing, and create a safe environment at home for themselves and their family.
When we help women find work they can do from home, there are many benefits to the business owner, manager, and entrepreneur. They now have an eager and skilled workforce that costs less money and time to execute, due to lowered overhead. These workers now have the income to spend in their local economies, which benefits their communities and provides a true Win-Win-Win solution!
