Community
Spark: Where Moms and Brands Connect
Mom Central Spark is an online community that enables brands to
engage directly with Moms.
• Mom Central will aggregate Brand Ambassadors into a private
community, fully hosted and moderated by Mom Central staff.
• Brand Ambassadors will connect with each other and share their experiences
with the product, which will in turn create fodder for reviews on blogs,
websites, and offline word-of-mouth outside of the Spark community.
• Our clients have moderated access to these Moms via polls, online
discussion forums, and direct messages within Spark.
• Our clients use the Spark Community to gather feedback from participating
Moms on product development, marketing, or other key brand initiatives.
• Spark resides on http://www.momcentral.com
