@MollyCakeOnline’s 2nd annual #6DaysOfSweet winner!

by

Molly Cake’s 2nd Annual 6 DAYS OF SWEET Winner!
Christine deicded to run this contest because she wanted everyone to have a chance to show someone else that they were noticed for the the kind thing that they quietly did for them, or for someone else, or to give someone something to smile about when they are having an otherwise less than stellar day,week, or month.
This is where you can share with us, why you think someone else deserves a sweet treat on us and we, on your behalf, will make sure they get it!

There were so many amazing entries it was very hard to choose!

I chose Dawn MacNeil who was nominated by her friend, Dawn.

She will receive a 1 month Sweet of the Month subscriptions

Here is her story:


“My dog got sick(parvo) this summer and I was so upset and didn’t know what to do. I posted in afacebook group that I’m a part of, telling them my dog was sick and I had no way to get him to the vet, and no money(single mom on OW). One of the ladies in the group Dawn MacNeil, who I had never met in person offered to come and pick us up, take us to the vet, and put it on her credit card and I could pay her back whenever I could.

My dog ended up being there for 11 days with a $2815 vet bill. Neither one of us expected it to be anywhere near that amount. Dawn assured me it was fine and I’ve been paying her back $100 a month.

This was someone I’d never even met in person. She took a chance on me, not knowing if she’d even get the money back. She is one of the kindest people I’ve ever met in my entire life, and I consider her a great friend. I’ve been wanting to do something nice for her, but haven’t been able to as of yet. When I saw this, I thought of her right away, as I can’t imagine someone who deserves this as much as she does.

By the way, my dog is totally healthy now, and doing great. 🙂 “

~ From Dawn

As a dog owner, this pulled at my heartstrings!   Thanks Dawn for being such a great friend!

Enjoy your treats!

Lucky 7s Week 2 – Shut up and Eat and UnMarketing

Kathy and Scott’s Books!

Donated by

Because of twitter, we have gotten to meet Kathy Buckworth and Scott Stratten  They are to very wonderful, knowledgeable people and they are fun to chat with on twitter.
BigDaddy and I have gone to a few events where we have been given copies of their books and this has led to us having multiple copies of Kathy’s and Scott’s books. We have enjoyed reading our copies, but it would be a shame for our extra copies to be left unread!

Be sure to follow  @kathybuckworth and @unmarketing on twitter — you’re sure to learn a lot and have a few good laughs!

From indigo.ca:
From The Publisher:

In Shut Up and Eat!, humourist and parenting author Kathy Buckworth applies her razor-sharp wit to an examination of the family meal.

Experts claim that sitting down to eat together can prevent children from getting into trouble while simultaneously creating close-knit families. In Buckworth’s opinion, that’s an awful lot to expect from a meatloaf! What about the son who thinks his food tastes better on the blue plate with the fish? Or the daughter who won’t eat anything green? And let’s not even talk about the mom who’d rather be doing anything but standing in front of the stove (drinking a glass of wine comes immediately to mind).

Laugh-out-loud funny, more accurate than most of us would care to admit-and with a few recipes thrown in for good measure-

Shut Up and Eat! is a must-read for any woman who’s ever wondered: What the hell am I cooking tonight?

From indigo.ca:From The Publisher:

From one of the leading experts in viral and social marketing-market your business effectively to today”s customers

For generations, marketing has been hypocritical. We”ve been taught to market to others in ways we hate being marketed to (cold-calling, flyers, ads, etc.). So why do we still keep trying the same stale marketing moves?

UnMarketing shows you how to unlearn the old ways and consistently attract and engage the right customers. You”ll stop just pushing out your message and praying that it sticks somewhere. Potential and current customers want to be listened to, validated, and have a platform to be heard-especially online. With UnMarketing, you”ll create such a relationship with your customers, and make yourself the logical choice for their needs.

Shows how to create a mindset and systems to roll out a new, 21st century marketing approach

Marketing expert Scott Stratten focuses on a Pull & Stay method (pulling your market towards you and staying/engaging with them, leading them to naturally choose you for their needs) rather than Push & Pray

Redefines marketing as all points of engagement between a company and its customers, not just a single boxed-in activity

Traditional marketing methods are leading to diminishing returns and disaffected customers. The answer? Stop marketing, start UnMarketing! 

I love them so much, I’m sharing the with you!

If you would like to enter the contest,

you need to comment on this post telling me 
if you’re on twitter and what you love about it!
Be sure to include your email address so we can contact you if you win.

Fine print:  The contest will close Wednesday, May 18, 2011 at midnight (EST). Winners will be contacted by email.

Disclosure: The books were given to us at various events and we just wanted other to be able to love them too.

The opinions on this blog are my own.
