    0

    Are you one of the next “Toledo Moms” contributors?

    Do you love writing and enjoy sharing your story with other moms? The Toledo Moms writing team is looking for new local voices who are passionate about our city and who are interested in sharing their stories! This is a volunteer position that comes with fun perks! You do not have to be a blogger to apply!

    We aim to include moms in all stages of the journey. We love hearing from moms of young children, moms of older children, moms of adult children, married moms, single moms, moms who have fostered or adopted, moms of multiples, special needs moms, and women who long to become mothers but might be battling infertility. Our goal is to grow our diverse group of contributors with women who want to connect with other moms in Toledo and the surrounding Northwest Ohio areas.

    Guidlines

    We so appreciate that you would consider sharing your thoughts, experience, and inspiration to Toledo Moms readers! Before you think more on the opportunity, please read the following guidelines and feel free to contact us with any questions.

    • Think LOCAL: We love to keep all of our content relevant to the Northwest Ohio area…or at least within driving distance for day trips and outings. Blog posts can feature places to go and things to do while more general topics {feeding, potty training, DIY…} can be given a local twist simply because they are written by a local mom – YOU!
    • Think MOMS: It may sound obvious, but TM’s target audience is made up of moms, so it only makes sense that our content remains under the broad category of parenting, within which you have a ton of subtopics to choose from: the experience of being a mom, stages and phases of development, tips and tricks, home management strategies specific to moms, and of course, all the locally-focused ideas mentioned earlier. At the end of the day though, we are all moms just trying to make our lives a little bit more enjoyable. If you have an idea that interests you and your friends, then our readers would probably love to read about it too!
    • Most Importantly: Write what you love, and love what you write!

    As you consider what content to submit as a sample with your application, please think on these important guidelines…

    • Your sample submissions should be original to you; meaning, you are the author. Please keep copyright infringement laws in mind.
    • Kinda obvious, but we have to say it… content should be free from the following :: profanity, sexual language, political endorsement of a party or candidate, political commentary, op-ed commentary on controversial political issues, and derogatory or inflammatory language.

    What you GIVE…

    • One original post per month that fits within the brand and mission of Toledo Moms.
    • A 6-month commitment from April 15 – October 15, 2021
    • Reside within the Northwest Ohio area
    • A passion for moms, kids, and our community
    • Availability to attend TM events (if we have them…)
    • A reliable, positive, and fun personality!

    What you GET…

    • Your photo and bio on the Toledo Moms contributor page {with links to your personal blog and/or social media handles if you choose to share them}
    • Involvement in the TM Contributors Facebook group AND social group
    • Opportunities to test out products and/or services before reviewing them on TM
    • Access to pre-sale and discounted tickets to upcoming TM events
    • New friendships and an amazing experience!

    So what’s next?

    • Fill out the application below.
    • Watch for updates via email. Once we close submissions, we’ll let you know that we’re on the way to bury ourselves in all of your content. All ongoing updates will be sent by email as well!

    Deadline is Wednesday, March 31, 2021!
