LikeWear Seeks Entrepreneurial Moms Who Want A Piece of ... - PRWeb

Posted: 06 May 2010 06:28 AM PDT

LikeWear, the only direct sales company dedicated to selling licensed apparel and accessories, is seeking entrepreneurial moms interested in having their own home based business. With licensing deals in place with General Mills, Honda, Tootsie Roll Industries and Topps, LikeWear offers the "average mom" a business opportunity that until now has been reserved for major apparel companies and large retail and department stores.

Livingston, NJ (PRWEB) May 6, 2010 -- LikeWear®, a unique fusion of a casual boutique children's clothing line and a party plan direct sales company, recently emerged from its soft launch and is seeking moms interested in having their own home based business selling licensed apparel and accessories.

As the first and only company to focus on selling officially licensed products through direct sales, LikeWear offers merchandise that is unique to the party plan business. Yet, unlike many other items sold at home parties, LikeWear products don't require much demonstration because their designs feature family friendly, well-known brands like Lucky Charms®, Tootsie Roll®, Dots®, Honda®, the Pillsbury Doughboy® and many others.

"I always knew it was a big idea and I'm excited to offer other moms a way to earn extra money selling clothing and accessories featuring major, national brands. What once was the province of a select few apparel companies and national retail chains, is now a viable business opportunity for entrepreneurial moms." says Lisa Gold, LikeWear Founder and CEO. "Moms innately have the skills required to sell kids clothing. They know what their kids like, they're a good judge of quality and sizing, and they have a huge social network in place thanks to their children's school and social activities."

In addition to a targeted online media campaign, the Company has tapped into the expertise of Maria Bailey – the "creator of the Marketing to Mom industry" and her company BSM Media to help get the word out to leading mom influencers and bloggers. "I love that LikeWear is a mom-created company designed to help other moms," says Bailey. "They definitely offer one of the most unique home based work opportunities available today."

As part of its national expansion, LikeWear has just introduced a new compensation plan which pays generous commissions on product sales and also encourages and rewards LikeWear business owners to build a team and help other moms to have their own business.

LikeWear® is a Livingston, NJ-based company that is a modern day fusion of a high quality, boutique children's clothing line and a party plan direct sales company. We provide a turnkey, home based business selling casual clothing featuring images of favorite brands and other cool stuff people like to wear. LikeWear is a proud member of the Direct Selling Association. Please visit us at http://www.likewear.com to learn more.

American Flag Clothing Banned on Cinco De Mayo - Associated Content

Posted: 06 May 2010 09:27 AM PDT

Must Everyone Celebrate "Minority" Holidays?

In the latest flare-up over free speech in school, 5 Sacramento boys attending a heavily Hispanic public high school were sent home for the day Wednesday for wearing clothing depicting the American flag on Cinco de Mayo. While the school district reversed the decision of Live Oak High School administrators by day's end, the reversal had no practical effect since the children had already sat out of school for the day for wearing clothing bearing the American flag to school. Despite the reversal, the action of Live Oak school officials in dictating how far students must go to respect a holiday celebrated by a historic cultural minority bears further scrutiny.

At least one of the 5 boys from Live Oak High School refused the option of turning his American flag tee shirt inside out on the grounds that doing so would be disrespectful to his country.

In recent years, the trend away from imposing majority holiday traditions on minorities has moved from opt outs to outright exclusion of majority traditions while showcasing minority traditions. The Live Oak High School administration would take this trend further, requiring students to refrain from displaying their pride in the majority culture on a day when a historic minority is celebrating their cultural pride.

The historic minority in this case, however, is actually the majority, representing 54% of student population at Live Oak High School. So it seems the trend of combating exclusion with inclusion-to-the-point-of-exclusion has returned to the philosophical status quo ante where once again a de facto majority imposes its will on a de facto minority.

To complicate matters further, one of the Sacramento high school teens sent home for wearing American flag clothing on Cinco de Mayo is of mixed American-Mexican heritage, with one parent from each country. Is his choosing to showcase his patriotism and loyalty to his birth country on a day that others are celebrating a holiday of national importance elsewhere in the world so inherently disrespectful that it must be forbidden?
