Mom Made That – List, Shop, and Support Moms

Our HandmadeMarketing.org team has been hearing some buzz about “Mom Made That!” (found here) for quite some time.  We were excited to get in touch with Amy, founder of the website, to learn more about this awesome mom network!

What is “Mom Made That!”?

“Mom Made That! is the place to list, shop, and support, mom businesses and blogs,” Amy explained.  “Moms are the most innovative creators, writers, inventors and business owners I know. This site is my way of showcasing their amazing products, ideas, blogs and service.”

Why should Etsy sellers stop by the website?

“During these tough economic times,” Amy said, “I encourage you to “buy mom” when purchasing gifts or needs for yourself, family and loved ones. Many of these moms rely on this extra pay to stay home with their children or to help supplement their family’s income.”

“The types of businesses you’ll see on Mom Made That! are Etsy shops, clever inventions, boutiques, blogs and more!” Amy tells us.  “Departments range from baby items to music to marketing. If Mom runs it, creates it, or sells it, she Made That!  Since our launch in December, 2008, we have grown from 20 mom businesses listed with us to over 70!

We provide a list of our current networks and the sites we advertise on, which include Twitter Moms, Moms United in Business, and Mom Bloggers Club. We also offer button advertising to all business, blogs, and sites.  As of February 4, 2009, 10% of all listing fees will be put into charity!
