Are you a military significant other who is interested in entrepreneurship but afraid that you won’t be able to be successful with the demands of the military? Look no further than the success of Jennifer Pilcher to prove that it is possible. Her goal is to connect our military families and our civilian families to resources and opportunities that can make a difference.
Jennifer started out as a Speech-Language Pathologist. However, as an active duty Navy spouse for over 13 years, she put that career on hold to raise her two children. Frustrated with military resources and opportunities spread all over the Internet, she decided to create a one-stop shop for all things military.
She started her company, MilitaryOneClick, in 2012. MilitaryOneClick is “the premier virtual resource for military families” and provides user-friendly access to thousands of resources including career tools, educational scholarships, PTSD help, financial assistance and more. It also provides information on military discounts, vacation information, and military focused charities.

She also strives to hire members of the military community for her company, and counts at least 7 military spouses as her employees. All of the job opportunities at MilitaryOneClick are virtual and flexible, with employees working all over the country.
Jennifer is not just an example of a successful entrepreneur, but also an example of a military spouse who took her career into her own hands and created her own professional success. She created a flexible work at home job for herself also maintaining her own personal professional success.
Just how successful has Jennifer been with MilitaryOneClick? She is a partner with the Military Spouse Employment Partnership and Joining Forces and introduced the First Lady at a White House Joining Forces event honoring military mothers and spouses.
