“There are some brief periods in a person’s life when old routines fall apart and buying habits are suddenly in flux. One of those moments —- THE moment, really —- is right around the birth of a child, when parents are exhausted and overwhelmed and their shopping patterns and brand loyalties are up for grabs.”

-- New York Times Magazine, February 2012

PREGNANCY IS AN UNPARALLELED OPPORTUNITY TO INFLUENCE CONSUMERS’ BUYING HABITS.

Word of Mouth Bloggers Retailer Reviews

Accessible?Not really.

It takes work… you have to be pro-active.

Maybe. You have to search

archives or wait for a relevant post.

Yes! The info is at your

fingertips.

Organized?Nope.

It’s virtually impossible to aggregate this info.

Maybe. Some have checklists.

Nope. It’s still a lot of info to

consume.

Trustworthy?Yes!

Who do you trust more than friends and

family?

Maybe. A lot are compensated

for their reviews.

Nope. Who knows who

these people are and what they care about?

NONE OF THE EXISTING SOURCES PROVIDE PARENTS WITH THE ADVICE THEY NEED.
