Open
MyPoints Frogpond members always tell others they are part of a word-of-mouth program
Be proud to be a MyPoints Frogpond member. When sharing with others, you must first let them know that you're involved with MyPoints Frogpond and that we've supplied you with the opportunity to experience a product or service. If you genuinely like something (or even if you don't), it's your open, honest opinion that counts.

A Natural Communicator
Be yourself and share your opinions
Your first priority is always to deliver authentic information and opinions, to other people. You know how you stop listening when you think someone is trying to sell you something? Well, other people do too. So stay natural! Be extra careful to not spam strangers when you're online.

Honest
Sharing an opinion is only effective when it's completely honest
Sharing an opinion only works because it is honest - and that means discussing any bad with the good. People are smart, and they'll pick up on fake or dishonest information. Why would you want to be misleading and risk damaging your relationships? Your honest opinion is what matters and that's what you should share with others.

Mindful
Everything you do communicates something to the people around you
A MyPoints Frogpond member knows that sometimes you don't have to say a word to make an impact. Keep in mind that you're constantly sending messages to the people around you, from what you say to the products you use.

Influential
Knowledge is power
As a MyPoints Frogpond member, your opinions have a lot of power. Respect that power by only sharing honest and informed opinions. Take the time to experience the web site and learn more about it before you spread the news.

Not a Salesperson
Share your honest opinions, not hype or a sales pitch
When you share, you don't need to "close the sale" or over-dramatize what you're saying. Share honest opinions with people and raise awareness about the product or service at hand. Don't pressure people or make false or misleading statements.

A Listener
Pay attention to how people are responding to opinions
Word of mouth is a two-way street. Sure, you have information about exciting products and services, but the people you're talking with also have opinions and experiences that they may want to share with you as well. Listening will help you to become a better, more informed participant.

Sharing for Fun
Sharing only works when you're having a good time
Being a MyPoints Frogpond member is exciting because you have access to great products and services, and fun because you get to spread the news in your own unique way - whenever you want, with whomever you want. No gimmicks, no pressure. Sit back, relax and let the sharing begin!
