PR Statement
All product reviews are done FREE of charge as long as a non-returnable full size product is received for review. I will always give my readers an honest and accurate review of the product.
When doing a review, I ask for 1-3 weeks to test out the product, so that I am able to write an accurate and honest review. In order to write an honest review, I need to become comfortable with the product, before I share my opinions with my readers.
My family consists of a 27-year-old man, 24-year-old woman, and a 1 year old little girl.
You may choose to do just a review or a review and giveaway. If you choose to do a giveaway I pair them along with my review and require my readers to visit your website and give feedback of some stuff they like in order to enter the giveaway. It is greatly preferred for the giveaway prize to be shipped by you directly to the prize winner. If this needs to be done differently, I require advance knowledge and approval before this is agreed to. You may specify prior to the giveaway being published where you will ship to (US, Canada, etc).
My giveaways generally run for 2-4 weeks and then a winner is drawn via random.org, and he/she will have 48 hours to respond to my email and claim their prize, or a new winner is drawn.
Reviews and giveaways will include product photos. I also include keyword product links to your site within the review and information on where to buy the product.
I will never write a negative review! As stated earlier, I only write honest reviews, and if I have a problem with a product, I will contact the sponsor to go about how to proceed. If there is something specific about a product that I do not like, I will state it in a courteous manner, but I will not make the review negative.
A review/giveaway in blogs is a great way to get your products and name out there!
