Yep Megan, I knew that :) As a matter of fact, I used to buy a lot of MARK. stuff when I was a consultant with them 6 years ago... now, I buy it here and there (when I can) from a friend I have on Facebook :)

Dawn Lidwell replied to Market Moms's discussion 'What is Your Best Form of Advertising?' in the group WAHM

I use craigslist and facebook a lot. I also do the traditional dropping business cards, flyers, leave old catalogs in dr offices and such as well. Exposure is my biggest issue as I dont really have very many friends in the area I live in and I dont…

A little about yourself...

I am a married work at home mommy of two wonderful kids. My family is my life, my reason for being. They are my inspiration and the reason I chose to become a work at home mommy! My son was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes on 10/06/08. It has been a rough road, but slowly getting better as time goes on. I work with a great company called Discovery Toys. Since I became a mommy, it has been my passion to provide educational toys to my children, and with Discovery Toys, I am able to do that, as well as help other families do the same! New customers and business partners are always welcome. If you have any questions or would like to see our products or sales, please feel free to contact me! Check out my two blogs!

Advertising Options?

What types of ways do you advertise your home business (online and offline advertising)?

I am looking for more ways to get my name out there. I already do a lot of what would be considered "traditional" (ie: leave biz cards, leave catalogs, facebook advertising, craigslist advertising, etc) but I am looking for more ways to get my name out there. I also post the different ways that I advertise that works for me on my blog for other moms in business browsing the net can get some ideas they may n… Continue

Anyone do "monthly classes" to help ppl learn more about your products?

I am an educational consultant with Discovery Toys. I am thinking about hosting some type of "classes" to show people how Discovery Toys products help their children learn valuable life skills. However, I am not entirely sure how to get this started, or what to do once I do have people interested in these "classes", or for that matter... what to CALL these classes LOL.

Do any of you do these type of events? Does it help your business grow? Do you find yourself getting more consultants, customer… Continue

Sigh, sorry it has been so long since Ive visited the site!

Sorry it has been so long since I have been back to the site. I have been so CRAZY BUSY lately! Last week I had two business events planned, one of which was rescheduled, the other didnt have a great turn out but got to meet up with some great friends and chit chat and what not. Over the weekend, I have been working on my blogs, business preparations and planning, helping my inlaws with my son's blood sugars while he was there at their house, and so forth. Busy busy busy!

I will definitely try… Continue

I'm finishing up a computer-based training for child abuse prevention designed for day care providers' annual training requirements, and might be opening up a huge new product development door. And I'm working on a study-skills curriculum to eventually market to homeschoolers. Keeping me out of trouble, at least!

When trying to get the html for the widget, did you click the "+" to copy the embedded code? I'm not a Wordpress expert since I use Blogger but I usually give Blogger 24hrs to see if a problem resolves itself. This Wordpress user is having the same problem which means it could be an issue with Wordpress
