A combination of "emoticon" and "promote." Describes being "promoted" by an important person in your life by getting emoticons from them in their texts and emails to you. In other words, you've been elevated from the lowly category of professional contact, acquaintance, or casual friend into their inner circle, where they feel comfortable enough with you to use emoticons. Not to be confused with demoticon.
