Q&A with Diane, the Buzzmama Coordinator

May 11th, 2011
Written by: Caitlin Madden

This is Diane!

Recently I had the chance to sit down with Diane, our Buzzmama™ Coordinator in order to chat about the new and exciting program. Read on!

Q: So, what is a Buzzmama exactly?
A:
Buzzmamas are volunteer brand ambassadors. Simply put: mamas who use and love Mabel’s Labels, and can’t help but share the idea!

Q: What exciting things are in store for a Buzzmama?
A:
Lots of great rewards! An exclusive Facebook group, monthly newsletters, coupons, surprise gifts and even some special events in their areas.

Q: What sorts of things do Buzzmamas buzz about? Can you give me an example?
A:
Mostly buzzing about how handy our products have been to them, and suggesting to friends and family that they would love them too.

I once heard from a Buzzmama that she was at a potluck and had all of her dishes labelled. Everyone was dying to know where she got them, and she proudly told them!

Q: How does one become a Buzzmama?
A:
Currently we’re accepting applications from the following cities: Atlanta, Chicago, New York City, San Francisco and Los Angeles.

Think you’ve got what it takes? Apply today!

Social Media Moms Come Together To Help Moms in Need this Mother’s Day

April 27th, 2011
Written by: Caitlin Madden

Billions of dollars are spent on gifts for Mother’s Day each year but despite this celebration of motherhood, hundreds of thousands of women worldwide die during pregnancy and childbirth.

Did you know?
• One maternal death every 90 seconds.
• 15% of all pregnancies result in complications during labor and delivery and sometimes are fatal.
• Pregnancy is the biggest killer of girls ages 15-19.
• For every woman who dies in childbirth, 20 more suffer from debilitating complications.
• We have the knowledge to prevent 90% of all maternal deaths.

Leveraging the power of social media, a group of 12 influential social media moms, including our own Julie Cole, got together to figure out how to make a difference. After a brainstorming session, Moms4Moms was born and the question was asked; what if 1% of that $14.6 billion could be given to this cause?

Consider helping by making a micro-donation of as little as $5 or donate an old cell-phone through the group Hope Phones. All funds raised will be given to Every Mother Counts, an organization Christy Turlington started after her own home birth went awry. The organization works with maternal deaths and supports moms in several countries.

Hop over to the Have Mom-entum Facebook page for more info and ways you can help.

Thank you to Mommy Niri from Mommy Niri, Holly Pavlika from Mom-entum,  Audrey McClelland from Mom Generations, Linda Grant from NYCSingleMom.com, Beth Feldman from RoleMommy.com, Erica Diamond from  WomenOnTheFence.com, Kelly Loubet from Everyday Childhood, Katja Presnal from  SkimbacoLifestyle.com, Karina Asner Carefoot from ficklefeline.ca, Molly Hayden Gold from The GO MOM! Organizer & Dagmar Bleasdale from Dagmar’s momsense for rallying us together to help another mother out.
