We know that you’re probably caught up in the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, but the New Year is just around the corner! If you’re like us, you probably make (and then break) New Year’s resolutions. That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t stop trying to make positive changes to start off the new year. Whether it’s a change to our diet, our budget, or heck, even our attitude, we can always benefit from extra efforts to get our acts together.
So, we’re asking you to tell us, what will you be doing in 2009 to make your “circus” easier, better, and just plain more manageable?
For our final blast of 2008, we’ve teamed up with BigTent, the online home for trusted groups. BigTent hosts nearly 1,000 parent-led groups - including play groups, moms clubs, group blogs (like the Silicon Valley Moms) and even PTAs - on a completely free and easy to use web platform. Leading these groups can be a three ring circus - but BigTent simplifies group management while providing a one stop shop for everything members need.
BigTent is partnering with Compass Life and Business Designs CEO and founder, Kimberly Fulcher, to offer a special “Get your act together for 2009″ promo. For any group leaders who start a group on or move to BigTent by December 31, Compass will provide a free one month membership ($19 value) to Compass Coaching Network, and all new group leaders will be entered in a grand prize drawing for a “Life Makeover” private coaching series ($1500 value). Groups must be of at least ten members.
Now that’s a great way to start off the new year!
Here’s how to participate:
Write a post on your blog about how you’re going to get your act together in 2009. Post anytime this weekend - Today, December 12 to Sunday, December 14 and include links to:
1) http://www.bigtent.com
2) http://blog.parentbloggers.com
Make sure to send your blog post link to parentbloggers@gmail.com and we’ll round them up right here - so give your post a creative title!
What can you win?
BigTent is offering a $250 gift card to Target - one place we all go to get our acts together - to be awarded at random among all participants.
Special bonus: The first 10 bloggers to send in their post links will each win a $25 Target gift card!
NO PRE-SCHEDULED POSTS. You’ve got to publish your post, copy and paste your permalink, and email it to us - anytime after 12:01am ET on Friday, December 12. Placement in the first ten bloggers will be based on the order in which we receive your emails, not the date/time stamp on your posts.
Plus, don’t forget to sign up your group at BigTent (your readers are eligible too!) to get a one month membership to the Compass Coaching Network and be entered in the grand prize drawing for a “Life Makeover”!
