10 til 2

From The Founders of 10 til 2


We are all parents, with three different sets of experiences in balancing work and our home lives after having children. We all knew that there had to be another option for stay-at-home parents. Today’s business paradigm of working employees as many hours as possible was just not for us, or for anyone who wanted to be the best parents possible as well as be the best employee possible. We also knew that many others felt the same way we did.

When we thought about opening 10 til 2, we talked about the two types of people we know. The first group is comprised of people in full time jobs who wanted desperately to have more time in the day for themselves, usually meaning more time to spend with their families. The second group is comprised of people who have chosen to walk away from full-time, highly paid, challenging positions. These people are also often desperate to have more time for themselves, time to think, to interact with adults, to get their neurons firing again.

There was no option in the middle. Now there is!

We started 10 til 2 in 2003 in Denver and proved we were right. College educated candidates’ applications flowed into our database and clients started to call. We found ourselves running a wonderful, profitable business. Life was good (except for the constant stream of phone calls and emails asking when we were going to franchise our business); other cities needed 10 til 2! Finally, after systemizing our business into one that can be easily duplicated, we were ready to take 10 til 2 to the rest of the country.

We invite you to look into 10 til 2. Come to visit us. Talk to our franchisees. Talk with some of our clients or candidates. Let us show you how you can help change the 2-track employment paradigm.

Join us in showing the world how to “Think outside the full-time box.”

"Before I became I 10 til 2 franchise owner, I was a satisfied 10 til 2 client! As a small business owner, I know how effective a qualified employee can be in the survival and growth of a small business. 10 til 2 provides extensive training, on-going support and resources that are essential to the success of my 10 til 2 business unit. The systems and processes they have in place helped me tremendously to jump-start and continue to grow my franchise unit. My other business is still a satisfied 10 til 2 client and now, I can also say that I am a very happy and satisfied 10 til 2 franchise owner!"
