Host_Housepoet |
Quote of the chat: 11:19:16 charis it's not enough to
just knock down the marketing of formula, it has to be
replaced |

Host_Housepoet |
and that is of course what we aim do to with the site |
|
11:06:05 |

11:08:17 |
MOD_ariana |
or a particular area of expertise |

11:13:07 |

|
11:13:20 |
habibek1ndheart |
State Farm gives out a free book on pregnancy and

|
11:14:02 |
Host_Housepoet |
I got one and I wasn't even pregant! ;) |
|
11:14:09 |
habibek1ndheart |
If WE found a low cost or free publisher....for a free
book |
|
11:14:24 |
habibek1ndheart |
know who else does it? The church of jesus christ of
latter day saints. People LOVE 'free' |
|
11:14:25 |
drgnfly7691 |
what about approaching other free pregnancy/baby
magazines, such as BabyTalk? |
|
11:14:26 |
Host_Housepoet |
or even booklet? |
|
11:14:35 |
habibek1ndheart |
yep |
|
11:14:40 |
Host_Housepoet |
that is a good thought as well |
|
11:14:44 |
givinguponyou |
the insurance thing- gettiing insurance companies to
mail out imfo to their pregnant policy holders |
|
11:14:45 |
eyezwideopen |
maybe we could get some of the breastfeeding compnaies
to help us puyt together a free pack to give to PG
mothers |
|
11:14:46 |
Host_Housepoet |
but do they have formula ads in that mag? |
|
11:14:50 |
eyezwideopen |
just like they do for formula |
|
11:14:58 |
serendipitylove |
? |
|
11:14:58 |
jucifer |
yes. |
|
11:15:01 |
eyezwideopen |
instead it would have breastpads |
|
11:15:05 |
eyezwideopen |
lanolin |
|
11:15:12 |

coupons for nursing bras |
|

...sorry, guys, I can't sit up any more, I have to go
lay back down. |
|
11:15:18 |
drgnfly7691 |
yes... I write them a letter about every-other month on
a crappy formula-promo article. |
|
11:15:27 |
serendipitylove |
wouldn't it be better to be in a mag that does have
formula ads...so mothers would see both? |
|
11:15:33 |
drgnfly7691 |
I'd like to see us get enough info to them that we could
REPLACE those articles and ads. |
|
11:15:34 |
jucifer |
TRUE |
|
11:15:40 |
Host_Housepoet |
I would as well |
|
11:15:41 |
sugarcoated_poison_apple |
when i had my first daughter, the bag i got from similac
had some actually useful stuff ... 4 4-oz milk storage
bottles, and a cooler bag thing that had 2 little
freezer pack things that fit into pockets on the sides. |
|
11:15:42 |
habibek1ndheart |
UGH or their ADS, like the RSV prevention ad that
doesn't mention breastfeeding |
