You Ask. You Receive.

We had plenty of inquiry about our Cloth Diapers and suggestions for new products and bundles. So... You ask. You Receive.

GD has a bunch of new bundles and products coming but I want to keep you guessing. It will make you check back more. Ha! No I wouldn't do that...

Here's some of the new things you can see online very soon:

• The Bamboozle Dream Kit. Saving you over $550!!
• Undecided Kits. Minimal Investment but enough of everything to try!
• Baby Registry Page including Free Gift for the Expecting Mom!
• GD is looking into the Famous Snappi for Prefold Diapers requested by Marie!

If you have suggestions for us don't be shy. All is welcome.

Of course don't forget to check back when all the updates are complete. You'll love what we've thought of!

P.s. You may wonder.. how come these posts are made so late in the day.. or night. That is because my daughter Sophie who is just shy of 9 months refuses to let me look at the computer when she graces my presence. Nice huh! Well I'll show her!

The First Show

Generation Diapers has participated in a few shows. The Market Moms "Mingle & Mocktail" and "The Durham Parent Baby and Kid Show" but on Sunday afternoon I was able to participate as an exhibitor in our first Welcome Wagon - Baby Shower Event.

I was excited and stressed but excited some more. In my past I have presented many projects to clients and spoke one on one with them offering customer service; but never as the owner. It is a responsibility I hold very dear. There was no one else to rely on. The finished product/service is all what I made it to be.

I pondered and thought, and paced and pondered some more. My husband gave me strange looks and offered light moral support. I would ask him questions what about this or that or the other but his ideas just weren't what I was looking for! I would lie in bed rubbing my chin what would be memorable.. what would I need.

I came up with my catcher if you will... Every woman loves chocolate! Attached would be my thought, my proposition. To all moms out there...

Babies should never run out of Kisses... or diapers.

Choose to use cloth so you never do!

The night before the show I fought with the print the 'do it yourself business cards' for my loot bag goodies. Then I had to bundle them. With the husband near by and a baby girl into all my business. The trick was to stuff 120 goodies bags with 3 Hershey kisses each, then to attach two tags all before my little one got random items smooched into her mouth. She's teething of course and it feels so good!

I stayed awake late late late. Must have been 2am printing price sheets and FAQ's about our products so when Sunday morning came around I was pooped. I wasn't sure if I had it all but it was going to be what it was going to be!

With my Bummis tote in one arm and my Mac in another I was off to the show. I was stressing because I was late but it turned out I had 2 hours to set up. So perfect indeed. I had never set up my booth before. So much choice... it was all up to me!

It was a great feeling talking to all the moms there. Being a mom myself and being proud to have something of my own. They say sometimes you loose yourself once you have a child. But it kind of seems I have found myself. I still have my regular job as an Office Manager at a local dance studio and helping my husband market his new business. But this was mine. Whether I made a toonie by then end it will be a great ride!

Welcome Wagon - It's not about Sales

Today I met with Barb from Welcome Wagons special events and signed up to participate in the Expecting Mothers Show this Sunday, April 25th from 1pm to 4pm. It will be held at LIVI Hall in Oshawa, Ontario.

ATTENDANCE IS FREE!

Welcome Wagon Baby Shower

Generation Diapers will not be selling product simply teaching moms to be:

• How to use cloth diapers
• What alternatives they have; Organic Cotton, Bamboo, etc
• What accessories they may need
• Financial breakdown of savings

We care about ensuring that the right information is being taught!

Late Night Mama

It's Sunday night and I can't sleep. Could be all of the ideas running through my head or it could simply be that I am a night hawk.... NOPE BOTH.

The past week has been a huge whirlwind. I have been busy...

• designing advertisements to catch other mama's eyes
• discussing tweaks and adjustments to the website
• creating partnerships with other business of moms like Step with Style Dance Productions and Chandra Lee Photography
• tweeting
• bloggin
• facebooking

It feels like a lot. But is has been a blast. With my 8 month old Sophie on my hip I am inspired to continually strive to do more for our family and for the environment. I do stand by the philosophy that if we do nothing, nothing will change. The world can be a crazy place packed with noise and distractions but once we sit down and turn off the music or close the windows from the traffic we can take a moment to think about the future and how we're helping. I know that I personally want to be affiliated with companies who strive for the same thing. Are you one?? CONTACT ME!!

It can be as easy as remember just one time to bring the reusable Price Chopper bag to the store and avoid purchasing a plastic one. Or taking the extra steps to take the Aquafina bottle to the recycling bin and not the trash can in the shopping mall. Every step is a good one! Just try and see how you feel after.

Partners

So the website is running, we are only adjusting minor things! Which is fantastic.

But now its time for the extras.

I am looking for partners to affiliate myself with. I am offering advertising on my website for exchange for advertising or rights to distribute in your business.

Interested? Contact me!
