Cozi Announces “I’m on Top of It Day”

SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cozi, the world’s leading family communications and organizational platform, today announced the first annual “I’m on Top of It Day” will take place on September 13, 2010. The purpose of the day is to celebrate the promise of resetting the online calendar for the new school year. Cozi is inviting families everywhere to take part in the celebration and get “on top” of the chaos that sometimes accompanies daily family life.

“As a full-time mother of four young children, I’m constantly juggling sports schedules, medical appointments, church commitments and grocery lists”

On “I’m on Top of It Day,” families nationwide are encouraged to get “on top” of family life by going to www.cozi.com and use one of Cozi’s features — integrated family calendar, appointment reminder, shopping list, or to-do list — to simplify their day-to-day activities. Whether it’s the creation of chore lists for the kids, automatically downloading your child’s school calendar into your Cozi calendar, or adding your child’s sports and activities schedules to the family calendar, Cozi wants families to get on top of that one organizational chore that gives them forehead wrinkles.

In recognition of “I’m on Top of It Day,” Cozi will be sponsoring a contest which will award three $1000 cash prizes to three individuals describing how they used Cozi to “get on top” of at least one gnarly family chore. To enter, send an email to imontopday@cozi.com, share an “I’m On Top” story on Cozi’s Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/CoziFamily or tweet an entry by using the hashtag #ImOnTop. Cozi will choose three random winners from amongst all entrants. Visit www.imontopday.com for more information and official contest rules.

“Today, most families juggle myriad activities and responsibilities — home, school, kids, meals, work, community and so much more,” said Robbie Cape, Co-Founder and CEO of Cozi. “With the ever-changing family schedule, it’s challenging for families to stay on top of everything at the same time. ‘I’m on Top of It Day’ is designed to encourage families to identify their own family organizational needs and get ‘on top’ of family life. Whether it’s getting ‘on top‘ of a party grocery list, a back-to-school supplies list or the school/PTA calendar, we want families to celebrate these victories — large and small — and get motivated to stay organized for the rest of the school year.”

“As a full-time mother of four young children, I’m constantly juggling sports schedules, medical appointments, church commitments and grocery lists,” said Kristen Calderon. “This busy lifestyle is great, but it often makes me feel frazzled. For ‘I’m on Top of It Day,’ I’ve decided to use Cozi’s tools to manage and organize my family’s multiple schedules, calendars and to-do lists. Getting ‘on top’ of family life is in fact doable — all it takes is just a few easy steps to feel organized and in control.”
