Wishpot Delivers a Baby Shopping Space with a Social Twist
and Announces Partnership with TotSpot
SEATTLE, July 2, 2008 -- Wishpot, the popular online social
shopping community, announces the launch of Wishpot Baby.
Wishpot offers parents the ability to shop anywhere,
maintain one shopping space and, with the help of
experienced and savvy Mom Experts, simplify what many
parents consider the most challenging task: shopping for
their children. "Wishpot removes the uncertainty around
choosing the safest and best products for baby. We do this
by making it easy to shop at any baby store, to get feedback
and recommendations, and to keep everything you need for
baby in one place!" explains Max Ciccotosto, CEO of Wishpot.
Wishpot is committed to helping parents find the right
product for baby. "Wishpot Mom Experts offer expecting moms
inspiration and advice as they prepare for their little
one's arrival, making the experience truly interactive,
informative, and fun! Wishpot Baby provides parents with
more options than ever before," says Jessica Smith who
recently joined Wishpot as Chief Mom officer.
Some Wishpot Mom Experts are well-known bloggers like Kelby
Carr (publisher of Type-A Mom, Foodie Mama, and momShare),
Katja Presnal (President of Skimbaco and Founder of Ladybug
Landings), and up-and-coming blogger Jessica Rosenberg
(publisher of The Lemonade Stand).
Wishpot is also partnering with TotSpot. TotSpot is a safe
and easy way for parents to share pictures and videos of
their children. It's a place to tell your kid's story.
Michael Brouhkim, TotSpot Co-Founder, says, "We are very
excited about the innovation Wishpot is bringing to the
social shopping space and the endless possibilities that
exist for bringing more value to our parents through their
service."
Wishpot Baby is a place for parents to get great advice from
Mom Experts, create easy-to-use baby registries that let you
add items from anywhere, see what other moms are shopping
for, and easily share all your baby needs with friends and
family.
Quotes
"We love that you can create one central wish list instead
of bouncing from site to site. The ability to find
like-minded people and see what they recommend or wish for
is even more helpful. It's like a virtual method of asking
your friend what he or she bought for her baby, or put on
her registry." -- Kelby Carr & Mike Carr of Dadosphere
"It's like having a bunch of moms holding out their hands to
help figure out what's worth it (and what's not!). I am
happy to offer my own lists to make recommendations for all
the moms-to-be so they can learn from my experience, and I
look to moms of toddlers to help me make smart purchases for
my son as he grows." -- Mom Expert, Sarah LaLiberte of
Spunky Mommy
