    Where will the sign ups be?
    “There are two basic motivating forces: fear and love. When we are afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we open to all that life has to offer with passion, excitement, and acceptance. We need to learn to love ourselves first, in all our glory and our imperfections. If we cannot love ourselves, we cannot fully open to our ability to love others or our potential to create. Evolution and all hopes for a better world rest in the fearlessness and open-hearted vision of people who embrace life.”
    ― John Lennon

    @aloneoverseas The sign up was for a Bedroom Chemistry pack. The sign ups were 12 noon Eastern time zone. Nikki was a little late getting it open but she took the first 5 people who signed/waiting to sign. The sign ups for that particular product is now closed. I'm sure there will be more products to come. 

    @irishlass Keep an eye out for Product Threads or keep an eye on the Product Review category in Discussions. With each new thread there will be a sign up time and details about that particular product. All you gotta do is sign up when instructed to do so. :) After signing up for a product you'll receive the product, try it out and write a review as instructed above in Nikki's first post.

    The first company and product was posted here: http://www.scarymommy.com/message-board/index.php?p=/discussion/13046/bedroom-chemist-product-review-sign-up-here-

    The sign up info was also in the thread (12:00pm est).

    Just keep an eye out for future product review opportunities! If you're interested in participating when they come around, the sign up information will be posted in the companies category under the review board.

    Maybe I missed it somehow, but what are the qualifications for participation?
    I prefer not to think before speaking. I like being just as surprised as everyone else by what comes out of my mouth.

    @dreamnofpalmtrees besides this: *All participating community members must be registered on the boards for at least 3 months with a 250 minimum post count.

    Qualifications might be dependent on the product under review. For example the Bedroom Chemist product had it's own qualifications such as: 

    Participants must be married or in a long term
    relationship.
    Participants must be over 18.
    Participants must be willing to give an honest,  comprehensive review about the product and
    conduct discussions about the product with other community members.

    @nikki could you clarify please?

    @unforgiven is absolutely right! Besides the three month and post count requirements, each company may add their own as well based on the product. Oh, and you must be willing to write a review within two weeks of receiving the product!

    Nikki - I tried to figure out the PM thing, but failed.  As a manufacturer, can you send me information on how to get products into this program?
