Tips About Co-OpsHere are the BIG, TOP 3 SECRETS about success in using Co-Ops! TOP SECRET #1 You need to go Big! So, how big, you say? There are Co-Ops out there right now with 30 families! Yeah, 30 families. So, don't stop at 3! It's a numbers game! The more co-op families you have, the more likely someone will be available to help you out for free when you need it. Yes, it's hard to find the right families you can trust, & that's why HiveMoms tries hard to help parents find one another! TOP SECRET #2 You need to be Active! A Co-Op is an economy where we trade Favor Points instead of cash. So, like the real economy, it breaks down if everyone saves and no one spends. So, use your Co-Op frequently. You'll be amazed at how reliably well it works, and how your kids get to grow up together. What better gift than giving your kids a bunch of childhood friends? TOP SECRET #3 If Big is out, and Active is out, Go Broad. In other words, join many Co-Ops. It makes sense, doesn't it? At HiveMoms, when you post a request for a Favor, you can instruct us to send it to ALL THE CO-OPS YOU'VE JOINED. So, even if each Co-Op you've joined has fewer than 10 families, you've just increased your odds that someone in one of your many Co-Ops will be available for free babysitting, when you need it! BTW, we're keen to make this a Top 10 list, so if you've got any more tips you'd like to share, drop us a line on our Suggestions Box page. |
