Hi...
Question. My wife makes a product that would be good for companies to give to their pregnant soon-to-be mothers...
How would you suggest going about contacting some of the companies that can give these to the mothers as a gift?
It would make her some money, and it would be nice for the women to get these from their bosses...

Hmmm Brainstorm Time
Brochure to HR, benefits manager, and manager associations, to individual companies, offer to speak to a group at a meeting - dog and pony kind of thing, give several away free to some moms, get on the local news, website's a must, contact local boutiques, see if they will carry, bring a few in, call first, um let's see, try the local health food store, they might be interested in expanding their line to include local artists/craftsfolk.
Don't forget the power of a hairdresser, nailperson etc.
Word of mouth is the best thing ever, that's how I get my clients, but you must be ready to swing from a chain in the middle of the mall, too!
Best of luck!
