So we’re pretty darn excited to announce that – and this is all thanks to you – yoyomama is the BC & Territories winner of SavvyMom’s Mom Entrepreneur of the Year Award!  The prize combines cash, business advisory services and office equipment, which will help us take some of the exciting next steps we’ve got up our sleeves. Stay tuned.

It was your votes that put us into the winner’s seat. So we’ve said it before, but we’ll say it again, thank you! As a very small token of our appreciation for your support, not just for voting for us in SavvyMom contest, but for spreading the word about yoyomama, sending in your comments and feedback and helping us grow over the past year and a bit since our launch, we’ve put together what we like to think of as a little prize pack of our own for you, something to make your lives a little less yoyo-like.

We’ve asked a smattering of the great BC-based businesses we’ve come to know and love to come up with something special just for you, and boy did they ever:

  • Better Baby Bums: Save 15% when you stock up on diapers and other everyday essentials. Just use the code yoyobums.
  • SPUD: Why not save $25 on your first four deliveries by using the promo code YOYOMAMA when you sign up?
  • Nicebaby:  You can save 20% when you shop Nicebaby’s collection of toys, clothes and art. Make sure to put yoyomama in the subject line when you place your order.
  • Style Kid: Whether you’re furnishing the nursery or in need of a Halloween costume, Style Kid fills in the blanks. Use the code THANKSYOYO on checkout to save 15% on your order. This offer cannot be combined with any other offers.
  • Bloom Essentials: This one’s just for you. Get 10% off the treatment of your choice by dropping the name yoyomama when you book your appointment.

Please note: All these specials expire on November 4th, 2008.

As we said, this is just a smattering of all the great BC-based businesses we’ve found and shared with you, for more fun finds be sure to browse our archives!

And congratulations to the Grand Prize winner, Martha Scully of CanadianSitter.com and Sundi Hoffman of Bug a Lug, Lara Berg from My Smart Hands, and April MacKinnon of Nurtured Products for Parenting, the other 2008 regional winners.

Finally, thanks to SavvyMom for the opportunity, and one last time, thanks to you!
