Mom's Spotlight Stories

Each week  we will  be spotlighting one of our  wonderful, supporters!!  Without them we have nothing we love supporting others.  that is what we are about here at  Mom's Coffee Shop.  We want you to get to know the people we are sharing on our page !!  It has been said people buy from people they trust. 

So this we we are featuring 4mykiddos.  So please stop over and show this some love and kindness!! 

Hi everyone, I'm truly honored by the opportunity to share my story. I'm married and a momma to our 4 kiddos ranging from 4- 12 and we live in rural NE. A little over 10 years ago I started searching for a way to be home with our oldest daughter at the time and help pay off our high debt load. I had a feeling of desperation and anxiety that I would have to put my baby in daycare and was tired of living with overdrawn checks and struggling to make ends meet. I searched and searched and finally chose to work with a team of women that truly had the training, support and business qualities I was looking for to help me become capable of owning my own business and creating a true residual income for our family. I've since been able to partner my love of creating a welcoming, toxin free home with my passion to help families live financially free. It's a pretty fun gig when you can see the things that bring you joy help other families! The saving grace for me has been the ability to be available for our children and be there for all of their firsts.

If your looking to become financially stable, maybe spend more time with your kiddos or start building upon your passion I would love to connect with you! You can visit http://www.4MyKiddos.com to learn more about what we do and how we can partner with you to be successful or connect with me on my fan page at http://www.facebook.com/4mykiddos or blog http://www.sabrinasandoval.com

Grandparent Day is Sunday!!!

Oh my... the summer got away from me.  The kid is in school now, Halloween is on my mind, and bam… Grandparent’s Day is Sunday.    How did I forget that?!  Did you remember or did it get away from you too?  No worries though!  I spent some time scouring the web today and found a few, simple, DIY projects you can complete in no time and still deliver a cool, unique Grandparent’s Day gift.
My son is 7  is so lucky he has his Dad's mom.  She is his best friend.  He never needs or wants for anything.  He goes to her house he is the boss.  You know what happens at grandma' home stays at grandma's home.  He calls her Grammie.   

We lost  Papoo aka Grandpa this year!!  My  boy sure misses his grandpa!! My  mom passed a 5 years ago but she was pretty awesome here self.  She spoiled him rotten and played  all kinds of things with  him.  They shared a really special bond.  

So here I believe is the craft we are doing.  I made a simple printable put their hand in paint or draw their hand on  here.  Should be able to just click the photo and save it and print.  Place it in a frame a quick and easy gift.   

And I will add one more  I made a subway art printable.  You can put this in a frame  and decorate the frame a little and have a cute gift.  

Feel free to share your idea in the comments!!  We love to check them out!! 

Daily Themes!

Using daily themes when posting to social media is a great way to pre-plan all your posts at the beginning of the week. Then you can use a scheduler (like HootSuite or the scheduler on Facebook pages) to create all your posts at once and use the rest of the week to socialize.

Daily themes also allow your fans to engage with you more. Many people already use common daily hashtags – we’ve all heard of #WomanCrushWednesday, #ThrowbackThursday and #SelfieSunday. The more consistent you are with your daily themes, the more likely people are to participate in them, so don’t switch themes every week! Give your themes a few weeks before you decide if you want to change them up.

Using daily themes with your direct sales business will also make your posts more searchable if you use #hashtags. A hashtag can be searched or clicked on within a platform (Twitter, Facebook, etc.) to view all posts that contain it. Adding commonly-used hashtags to your posts allows new fans to find you!

Here are some daily theme ideas for your direct sales business.

Monday

#MusicMonday – post the song that helps get you through the day.

#MotivationMonday – post your favorite quote, movie scene, etc. that gets you going.
