PR and ADVERTISING Information

Thank you for your interest in The Queen of Swag! I truly do appreciate you visiting my blog. If you are interested in learning more about me please CONTACT ME at thequeenofswag at gmail dot com about any of the possibilities below or if you would like to be forwarded a Media Kit!

I am Open and Can Provide the following:

Brand Ambassadorships:

I love being a voice and ambassador for the brands I represent as an Ambassador. I love to help promote and embody the image in appearance, demeanor, values and ethics of the companies I value and work with as an ambassador. I would love to represent you!

Sponsored Posts:

If you have a company, site, event, or brand that you’d love help getting the word out about, I would love to help out!

Product Reviews:

I love product reviews and I am open to companies or brands who wish to hire me for a campaign. I only accept full sized actual products with a minimum of 3 products per review and the value of the products must be a value of over $25. I do not accept singular travel sized samples in exchange for a review. I do ask that if sending toys for children, please try to send toys for all 3 children. I am also unable to return any items sent to me unless arrangements have been made PRIOR to shipping the item to me. Such arrangements would include pre-paid postage to return the product to you. I am unable to do product reviews unless I have actually had the opportunity to use the product (or service) personally. I do not do reviews based on photographs. I am open to different types of product reviews including (but not limited to) electronics, family friendly products, toys, movies, games, DVD’s, CD’s, household products, beauty products, pet products, books, technical “gadgets”, food, sites, and more.

If I feel that for some reason I can’t represent your product well on my blog I will let you know that upfront. If more then one product is shipped to me for a review, unless prior giveaway arrangements were made, I will offer the additional product for a giveaway at my discretion.

PLEASE NOTE this is a very ACTIVE and BUSY blog and Reviews can take up to 3-4 weeks to complete at this time since this is a very professional and high demand blog.

Book Reviews:

I can provide book reviews. Please keep in mind that books take time to read, especially when you are a parent, have a job with long hours, and a blogger. I read as much as I can as often as I can. Depending on what is going on in my life and how big the book is it could take me anywhere from a week to a month or two to complete the review. Please keep that in mind when asking for a book review. I LOVE reading books, you just have to understand that it’s not practical to get a book read and reviewed in the matter of a week when you are a busy person.

Giveaways:

Offering products, books, subscriptions or gift certificates is a GREAT way to create a buzz about your product, book or service. My readers appreciate the opportunity to win exciting prizes. Please consider offering an additional product or gift certificate for a giveaway when asking for a review. It’s not mandatory but the option is available to you. It would be helpful if you could ship the prize to the winner. Large Prizes I Definitely can NOT ship. I promote reviews & giveaways using various forms of social networking sites and giveaway link ups and sites. It all depends on the product being offered and if readers find it interesting enough. All Giveaway Prizes must Have a value of $25 or above unless other arrangements are made for the giveaway.

Special campaigns and promotions:

I am happy to post information about special campaigns and promotions only if I feel that it’s something relevant to my readers.

If your product is on sale this week it is not something I would post for my readers. Although I appreciate knowing about these things, not all my readers will. If you want me to write about a new product or service consider doing a review or giveaway.   If your company is having a special sweepstakes please feel free to contact me. I will post sweeps information only if I feel it’s something my readers would enjoy.

An example of what I would not post: Products that are overly sexual in nature. No pornographic campaigns or promotions. It’s not appropriate for my site. When in doubt please contact me and I will let you know if I can post your information or press release.

Advertising:

I am currently accepting advertising on my blog. PLEASE NOTE that with any type of advertising it is a “hit or miss”. I cannot make any guarantee as to how many readers will click on the ad. If your ad is eye catching and relevant to my reader demographics you will do better then other ads. There is no discount or refund if an ad doesn’t produce as many hits as you’d like it to. It’s important that your product or service is something that would appeal to my readers. I have the right to refuse ads. I will not post ads on Gambling, Porn, Hate or anything of that nature.

For Rates and Advertising options and Media Kit please contact me directly!

Travel and Events:

I currently reside in the Southern California/Los Angeles area and still have family in New York. If you have an event that you would like promoted through my blog that is located within these areas please feel free to contact me about it. I am open to traveling to locations for events as well as long as transportation is provided. Need a Blogger to Take a Trip to any city or New York to Cover an Event? I’m you’re gal!

Also If you have a family friendly destination you would like to have reviewed and promoted on my blog I am happy to discuss it with you as well.

Conference and Event Sponsorship:

If you would like to sponsor me to attend one of the national blogging events Like Comic Con, Hispanicize, or BlogHer I would be happy to promote your company while networking with hundreds of other bloggers. I will also be happy to promote an online campaign to help create a “buzz” and interest in your company or product. I am available and open to attend a number of blogging events both locally and out of state. Please contact me if you’re interested.
