I Love Twitter. You Should, Too!

I love Twitter. Absolutely love it and as a marketer you should too. As the mother of four, I use Twitter much in the same way I used to use Google or Yahoo!.

Beyond the Mommy Blogger

A lot has been written about “mommy bloggers” — a term, by the way, that most moms who blog dislike. Marketers clamor to sites with trips, product samples and incentives by the thousands. Rightfully so, marketers recognize the powerful influence these women have on their peers. It is a 180-degree move in the right direction and a long way from where companies were when Marketing to Momswas published a decade ago. However, there is risk involved in extremes, and focusing too narrowly on mom bloggers as your moms strategy can be…
