We’re sharing this page with you today because social media is becoming pay-to-play (more and more so) – specifically, Facebook has NOT been sharing our posts with our audience there unless we pay to promote them.
As a social justice / environmental justice/ advocacy focused small business, this “pay-to-play” model does not work for us. Instead of trying to work within Facebook’s newly broken paradigm we have decided to switch the emphasis of our communication efforts to our e-mail newsletter (and also to Reddit, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube and TikTok – and away from Facebook.)
Filling out the form below will add you to our email newsletter list (it’s free!) We have also planned some exciting #GiveAways where everyone who has subscribed to our e-mail list is automatically entered for a chance to win fabulous prizes donated by Lead Safe Mama sponsors and supporters. This is a little something we are doing just as a way to thank you all for subscribing. Check out the graphic with details for the current giveaway at the top of this page!
- When you subscribe to our e-mail newsletter list (below) you will receive all Lead Safe Mama updates and you will be among the first to see newly published consumer goods test results in real time as we publish them!
- Through this newsletter you will be among the first to learn of product recalls – typically MONTHS before those recalls are made official by the CPSC.
Thank you so much for supporting this work in this way (& don’t forget to invite your friends too!)
Note: you may need to confirm your e-mail subscription, so please do be sure to check your junk mail if you don’t see a confirmation email in your regular in-box. We will never sell or give away your email, this information is only used for the Lead Safe Mama email newsletter!
IMPORTANT:
Please use a REAL email address to subscribe. This is how we notify winners for our #GiveAways and you can miss the notification that you won (or not respond in time) if you don’t use your REAL email address (or if you use an alternate email address for spam.) In most #GiveAways selected winners are given 24 hours to respond to the email to confirm that they would like to accept the prize that they won (and if they do not respond within 24 hours an alternate winner is chosen.)
