iStock_000007117544XSmall.jpgWhen shopping for holiday gifts, the green shopper wants to find gifts that are special, unique and socially and/or ecologically responsible.  That can be hard to do at your traditional mall.  Have no fear, the Greenwala Marketplace is like a virtual mall where you can shop for everyone on your list from different green retailers.  

Join Greenwala at this week's #ecowed twitter party to discuss ethical shopping using the Greenwala Marketplace.

Wednesday, December 7th

7pm Pacific

#Ecowed is a weekly twitter party where we meet to chat about how to live a more sustainable, nontoxic life.  Each week is a different topic.  Some weeks we have a casual chat, other weeks the parties are more formal with a sponsor and/or panelists.  This week's sponsor is Greenwala.

Both consumers and small businesses will benefit from participating in this week's #ecowed.

For Consumers:

  • Learn about the different retailers that have set up shop in the Greenwala Marketplace
  • Learn how to follow your favorite green retailer so you don't miss out on new products or sales
  • Find gifts for everyone on your shopping list
  • Meet great green, independent, family owned & fair trade businesses
For Small Businesses:
  • Learn the benefits of having a Greenwala storefront
  • Learn about the ways Greenwala will help market your business
  • Find out how other retailers are using their storefronts for excess stock, to have special sales not offered on their primary website
  • Learn why it's worth setting up a free Greenwala storefront even if you sell from your website and/or at other retailers

How to participate:

  • You need to have a twitter account to participate
  • Follow #ecowed host @YourOrganicLife
  • Follow @Greenwala
  • Follow the hashtag #ecowed and make sure to use this hashtag in your tweets so we can see your tweets.  
  • RSVP in the comments below (list your twitter ID) to win prizes
Several Marketplace retailers will be a part of the fun and we are hoping to have a few prizes to give away, so be sure to RSVP!  You must RSVP and tweet at least once in order to be eligible for for prizes.

I hope you'll join us for this fun party and learn how the Greenwala Marketplace can help with your holiday shopping.
