			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="size-full wp-image-3651 alignleft" title="Star Award" src="http://babyswags.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Star.jpg" alt="" width="216" height="299" /></p>
<p>That&#8217;s right!  Baby Swags is going to be hosting our very own, WAHM of the YEAR contest to help celebrate our 5 years in business!  Why are we hosting a contest for WAHM&#8217;s when it&#8217;s OUR anniversary?  Well, it&#8217;s quite simple actually.  We, or I should say, I, want to acknowledge and pay special thanks to all the WAHM&#8217;s who have supported me over the last 5 years.  We have been through good times and bad together, have watched each other grow and expand and have been a tremendous source of support for each other.  It is my way of saying Thank You for all that you do, because, as I&#8217;ve said before, without all of you, there would not be a Baby Swags!</p>
<p>We will be sharing more details of the contest as the weeks and days approach, but for now, we are on a search to find the perfect contest sponsors fit for the WAHM Queens that you all are!</p>
<h3>Want to be a Prize Sponsor?</h3>
<p>With that being said I’m looking for quality  sponsors who can, in some way provide a benefit to the WAHM community. I have already reached out to a few companies who  have offered to generously sponsor something of good value to our winner/s, but I’d like to get as  much as I could for our WAHM&#8217;s and so i am reaching out here on my blog.</p>
<p>There are three sponsorship packages,  the gold, silver and bronze sponsors. The package you will want would largely depend on the value of the  prize you are sponsoring.   If you are interested in becoming one of our sponsors and would like to request sponsorship details, please use the contact form below and we will get the information out to you.</p>

<p>WARNING &#8212;&gt; VERY LONG &amp; DETAILED</p>
<p>Baby  Swags is celebrating it&#8217;s 5 year anniversary.  I can&#8217;t believe 5 years  has gone by so fast.  It seems like it was just yesterday that I was  sitting on my family room chair while watching the VH1 special on the  Hollywood Baby boom trying to figure out how I could help other work at  home moms facing the same struggles I was having getting products to  favorite celebrities.  As if it were placed  delicately into my head, the idea for offering celebrity gifting  services to other wahm&#8217;s came to light through a little home based  business I decided to call Baby Swags.   5 years later,  we have had  tremendous success with receiving countless thank you notes and spotting  numerous paparazzi photos of various celebrity babies/toddlers/kids  wearing or using some of our clients hottest products!  I am hoping to  continue the sightings by doing one of our biggest giftings to date!</p>

<p>30 products are required.  If  you do not have a product specifically targeting the celebrity and/or  their child, you are urged to send in a gift certificate that can be  used online.  The object is to get them to notice your product and/or  website because you never know who they know and when they will need a  gift to send to their family/friend/assistant/niece  or nephew&#8230;.etc&#8230;.  PRESENTATION is everything so make sure you make  it stand out&#8230;even if it is just a gift certificate or paper voucher!</p>
<p>We  will also be featuring EACH company that sends in products for this  gifting on the pages of our Digital magazine for Tots To Teens  Magazine&#8217;s &#8211; 2011 Holiday Gift Guide that will be out in November 2011.</p>

<p>We would also like for you to provide us with one  additional gift that we can use as part of our celebration  giveaway&#8230;because you KNOW that there will be people wanting to know  how come celebs get everything and regular folk get nothing&#8230;.so this  will definitely be an added bonus to all our twitter followers, FB fans  and blog readers!</p>
<p>Deadline for this gifting is September 1,  2011 as our official anniversary is 9-6-11, I would like to have all  products no later than the 1st so I can put them together and get it all  shipped by the 6th!  All accounts must be paid in full in order for us  to include your product.  Accounts will not be able to carry a balance due to the nature of this gifting.</p>

<p><strong>About Baby Swags:</strong><br />
An entrepreneur at heart, Phyllis Pometta has always wanted to be a mom, raise her children and have her own business.  It wasn’t until she was pregnant with her third child that she decided to take a business idea to market.  She started out with a small product based business but realized she had more joy in marketing and promoting her product.  Falling back on her degree in Marketing and Retail, she was able to have her product featured in print and on a national television show.  After returning home from a trip to Los Angeles, her need to help other mom-entrepreneurs fell into place and Baby Swags was born.  Phyllis has created the Baby Swags network that has 380+ members, hosts an internet radio show, <a href="http://www.themommymentor.com/" target="_blank">The Mommy Mentor</a> on <a href="http://www.toginet.com/shows/themommymentor" target="_blank">www.toginet.com</a> which airs Tuesday, 10-11:00AM CST and will be launching her own digital magazine at <a href="http://www.totstoteensmagazine.com/" target="_blank">Tots To Teens Magazine</a> .  She fully believes that knowledge is power and continues to inspire, motivate and empower women and girls of all ages and stages.</p>

<p><strong>About Baby Swags:</strong><br />
An entrepreneur at heart, Phyllis Pometta has always wanted to be a mom, raise her children and have her own business.  It wasn’t until she was pregnant with her third child that she decided to take a business idea to market.  She started out with a small product based business but realized she had more joy in marketing and promoting her product.  Falling back on her degree in Marketing and Retail, she was able to have her product featured in print and on a national television show.  After returning home from a trip to Los Angeles, her need to help other mom-entrepreneurs fell into place and Baby Swags was born.  Phyllis has created the Baby Swags network that has 380+ members, hosts an internet radio show, <a href="http://www.themommymentor.com" target="_blank">The Mommy Mentor</a> on <a href="http://www.toginet.com/shows/themommymentor" target="_blank">www.toginet.com</a> which airs Tuesday, 10-11:00AM CST and will be launching her own digital magazine for tween girls in July, 2010.  She fully believes that knowledge is power and continues to inspire, motivate and empower women and girls of all ages and stages.</p>
