Mom Central comes to Canada

I’ve been working with the Mom Central network for more than a year now on various blog tours and promotions — from locks to board games to chocolate – and one of my only complaints would be the number of events and tours that were less convenient for or not available to Canadians. That’s why I was so pleased to hear that Mom Central has now launched a new division, Mom Central Canada, and they’re looking for moms to sign up for the Canadian Mom Central Testing Panel. Here’s what’s in it for you, according to Mom Central:

Why Should Moms Sign-up?

• They’ll get to try out new products before they hit the shelves and their feedback will help make products better for Moms
• Their opinion will be heard by leading brands who care about what Canadian Moms have to say
• They’ll have the opportunity to share what they learn with other Moms and pass along coupons and other promotions to their Mom networks
• They’ll find out about other great opportunities from Mom Central including giveaways, surveys and research studies that help brands make important product decisions

If you sign up for the testing panel between June 1 and 30, you’ll be entered into a draw to win one of five Canon PowerShot point-and-shoot cameras.

I like Mom Central, and I think they’re one of the companies that treat bloggers with respect and offer real quality in the services they provide, so I was happy to blog about their arrival in Canada. They were nice enough to sweeten the deal by offering me a free ballot into the draw and a $20 gift card from amazon.ca for blogging about their launch.
