]]> Comment on I’m a Mom on a Mission …for Something to Believe In by Sarah http://www.mahercomm.com/im-mom-mission/#comment-656 Sarah Mon, 17 Oct 2011 02:03:06 +0000 http://www.mahercomm.com/?p=5296#comment-656 I love the "simple, honest and real" mantra. Remember, back in the day of June Cleaver so much was artifice, veneer, false. Ugh. I'm hoping that the 2011/2012 version of Traditional for Moms is as valuable and transparent, authentic and efficient as it can possibly be. We're busy, we're conscientious, we're savvy. We're sick of confusion, obfuscation, beating around the bush. We want the info, straight: reliable recommendations, easy access to the goods and services that will solve our problems. We want products that will work for us and for our families. We want value. Every minute matters to us, as does every dollar (or ten, or 100). We demand legit. We do not want to find out later that this-or-that ingredient was actually harmful or untested. I like the idea of incorporating some fun and humor into our daily brand mix. Looking forward to your next post! I love the “simple, honest and real” mantra.

Moss Thu, 13 Oct 2011 14:33:52 +0000 http://www.mahercomm.com/?p=5260#comment-635 Great post, Keith. And Everywhere Commerce is certainly a timely topic and one that more brands are thinking about each day. Strangest place I've made a purchase? I have a tendency to re-load my Starbucks card (via iPhone app) with 1-2 people ahead of me in line. By the time it's my turn, my digital card is reloaded with enough funds for me to get my caffeine fix. And, yes, I love my phone... which, in many ways, is everything but a phone for me.
