The Gift is NOT the Gadget

gift-is-not-gadgetThis Sunday is Mother’s Day, an important gift giving holiday. Because of its importance, Mother’s day for CEIVA has historically been a busy time for us, as our frames are popular gift items.

On the surface one might think that our photo frames’ popularity as a gift is due to the fact that they are (1) super easy to use for technically challenged people, (2) can be “networked” with other family members who have CEIVA frames, and (3) can have pictures sent directly into them. And while all these features and benefits are nice, this is not the real reason why our CEIVA’s make great gifts.

Through the years we have learned something from those of you who have given our frames as gifts. We have learned that when you give a CEIVA photo frame as the gift, the gift ends up not being the physical gadget. The gift is what happens within the gadget… and the “gift” is ongoing and different every day.

The real gift is all those special moments in life, captured in pictures, that come shining through for all to see. Only CEIVA frames allow your family photos to “automatically” show up on a kitchen counter, bedside nightstand or anywhere you choose to place the frame. Be they baby pictures, a trip last year to the beach, a wedding, any special moment captured in pictures now all can easily be shared among family members.

So when you give this special gadget get ready… the experience is beyond description. For this “gift” placed in a loved one’s home connects them to family in a simple yet profoundly touching way.

Like you, your bothers, your sisters, and other family members will all able to send photos directly into the CEIVA frame… from anywhere in the world. Lives, families, and special moments will instantly be shared.

Imagine the joy your Mother, your parents or your grandparent will get each morning as they wake up to new pictures. But know, to them these are not just pictures, they are life, they are family, they are a testament of pride and joy.

Happy Mother’s Day

Do You Suffer from Multi-Mother Guilt Disorder?

stamp-outIt’s just about that time of year when millions of you will again suffer from your annual spring flair up of Multi-Mother Guilt Disorder (MMGD). In fact, many of you will suffer an attack and not even know it.


What is Multi-Mother Guilt Disorder? Typically, it is the panic and the guilt associated with Mother’s Day gift giving.


How did you acquire MMGD? Well, first of all don’t worry only adults suffer from it. However, you need to know that most likely you caught it as a child. Typically the progression of the disorder goes something like this.


It starts early each year as a new crop of kids smash their open palms in to a wet disc of plaster that is to become their first Mother’s day gift. They let their special gift dry, paint it, and finish by tying a pretty ribbon to it. Then as this gift passes from their hands to their Mother’s, the seeds MMGD are sown.


Each year the gifts for our Mom got better, and those who qualified as a “Mom” expanded. Somewhere along the way, Grandma’s became Moms. For many, because of a divorce, a step-mother qualified for a gift. When you married, you may have not only gained a Mother-in-law but also your spouse’s two Grand Mothers. Then what about that favorite Aunt that never married and who was like a “second mother”? Doesn’t she deserve a gift on Mother’s day too?


I think you get the point. We all start out with one mother and end up with a multitude of special women that should be honored on Mother’s day. The guilt and panic (MMGD) sets in as you try to pick the perfect gift befitting the love, respect and admiration you have for each of them.


Good news! CEIVA cures MMGD! How? Well, first getting them all the SAME gift is the great equalizer that ends the worry over one Mom finding out what the other Mom got.


Plus a CEIVA frame is the gift that keeps on giving. Through the years you and ANY of your Multi-Mom’s loved ones will be able to send digital photos directly INTO any and all of the frames you give as gifts, including Grandmas… even if she doesn’t have a computer! You see, because you send a picture directly to the frame a computer is not needed. This is why sometimes our frames are referred to as “photo receivers” and there are NO digital frames in the world that can do this.


So if you want to cure your own case of MMGD and at the same time connect to one or many Mothers in your life … CEIVA Digital Photo Frames are for you. Plus, right now you can SAVE 20%! Click here to visit the CEIVA Store for details.


So until the next post… that’s what CeivaJoe knows!
