Family is everything. In the case of mother and daughter team Eileen and Anne Huntington, and their company Huntington Learning Center, which has helped expand the academic skills with individualized tutoring services and test prep for countless children for more than 42 years, their business is a true labor of love. Mom Eileen (CEO) and daughter Anne (President) join Socialfly Co-founders Stephanie Cartin and Courtney Spritzer for a conversation about building their company and their journeys to success, including how leaving a teaching job led to creating a company and ultimately an industry, the differences for Eileen on between being an entrepreneur in the late 70’s vs today, how marketing has completely changed since the company’s early days, what Anne’s biggest mistake was in the business and what she learned from it, important insights about focus and staying true to the DNA of one’s company, and the joy of joining a family business and importance of boundaries that allow efficient collaboration at work and a loving family at home.
