Just a heads up, friends, to let you know I have signed with an advertising network called Federated Media. This means you will start seeing ads on Postpartum Progress. Fact is, we've got to raise money in as many unique (and EFFECTIVE) ways as possible to support the nonprofit and make a big impact on the services and programs available to women with perinatal mood and anxiety disorders. I am pleased that the Clever Girls Collective and Federated Media partnership of which I am now part has the potential to help us a little bit in that goal.
I hope that you'll click on ads that interest you — seriously — and I have one major reason for this: Until now, corporations have not supported women with postpartum depression. Look around. Have you seen any major sponsorships from big companies to help raise awareness and fight these illnesses like you see for, say, breast cancer? I'll answer for you: No. I have been telling people that moms with PPD are still normal women. They are parents. They buy things for their household and for their children. And when they get better, they are FIERCELY LOYAL to those organizations that supported them during the trial of perinatal mood and anxiety disorders. So we need to show them that this is true and thus generate even more corporate support of our cause in the future.
Any and all proceeds of the advertising will go directly to the non-profit, not to me, so all I can say is … get clicking!
P.S. The Federate Media ads will go "above the fold" but I can also do ads outside of the network below the fold, so if you are interested in advertising on Postpartum Progress or sponsoring a particular section of the site, let me know.
