Business
Did you know that women buy over 50% of cars on the road and are involved in 80% of the decision making? As a mother and a female in the automotive industry, Kelly Stumpe understands what women want and need when purchasing a vehicle for themselves or for their family. While Kelly’s family owns 6 car dealerships in the St. Louis area, she had to learn the industry from the ground up when she joined her family business after college. She learned everything you need to know about the car buying process and realized it was hard to find trustworthy information and tools when purchasing a car. Kelly has a unique perspective on the industry as a woman and a mother and wanted to create a platform for women and families to feel confident when purchasing a car. So, last June, Kelly created The Car Mom, a much needed community for women on Instagram and YouTube where Kelly provides car reviews, tools and tips to streamline the process, save you time in the dealership and empower you to make the right decision when purchasing your car. Kelly reviews cars from a mother and women’s perspective and answers questions about car seats, strollers, cup holders, safety, storage, etc. Kelly’s mission has resonated with women all over the country and she’s quickly grown her following to almost 90,000 followers. While there is no “perfect car” because everyone’s situation and preferences are a little different, Kelly hopes to equip and empower you to find the right car for your needs. www.thecarmomofficial.com
