Quick Round Up
 
We were delighted with the WO4LO 2009 awards.  We had a fantastic response from visitors, the winners announcement programme on www.mybabyradio.com gave us an amazing finale and the there has been a great media response.  Plans are already underway for our 2010 awards!

On 6th July www.mumandworking.co.uk became part of What's On 4 Ltd.  We've already added a new forum and a working mum's blog.  You will see more from this website over the next few months.

Used and recommended by us is a new page within your listings account on the whatson4 websites.  We hope you find this information helpful.

PR & Marketing this Autumn 


We've had loads of lovely PR this spring and summer including the awards coverage in Prima Baby magazine, many local and regional pick ups of our award winners and finalist across the UK and several radio appearences include 2 afternoons where Sam was in the BBC Radio Berkshire studio talking about school holiday activities for all ages including specifically mentioning many of our listings in that area.

We have a lot planned from now until the end of the year including:
  • A WO4LO voucher in the Prima Baby magazine chequebook out at the end August
  • WO4LO advertising on the NCT magazine
  • WO4LO sponsorship of the www.mybabyradio.com Morning Playgroup show started this month and mumandworking now also sponsors their Mums Hour.
  • mumandworking ad is the next 6 months of Prima Baby magazines
  • "Mummy Friends" story out in September to make the November/December editions of pregnancy and baby magazines

September is always our busiest month across all our websites, so make sure you don't miss all this!
