INSIDE THIS EPISODE * Pitching Brands * Brands pitching bloggers * Your Ideal Reader...Your Target Audience * Components of a standard pitch JUICY QUOTES "The big thing is to take the middle man out. To take the blogger network out of the equation." Taylor Bradford "When you are working with the brand directly, you also have more flexibility in terms of length of contract, focus. You are really able to tailor a campaign to your audience versus a campaign that a company has gone to a network and paid to have 50 bloggers participate in. So you can really be sure it's perfect for your readership versus everyone else in your niche." Carly Anderson "If it doesn't make sense for your brand, there is no point in pitching them." Taylor Bradford "It's going to end up being one of those posts that is difficult to write. [one that doesn't fit with your brand or is a stretch]" Carly Anderson "You have to always be careful with how you say no to the brand." Taylor Bradford "If you have the perfect blogger for what they are looking for, recommend them." Taylor Bradford "It's a matter of what they have to offer and when they are able to pay." Carly Anderson "Looking at it as an opportunity to pitch what you can do, is the best way to go." Carly Anderson "Nobody wants to work with that rude girl." Carly Anderson "Identify the brands that you most want to work with. That most aligns with your community and your brand. And go after those companies and those brands. As long as there is a mutual benefit to the two of you, it's probably going to work. Most likely. Unless you are pitching to the moon or something."

In general laymen terms, it's just you alerting your readers that you received product or compensation or the post is sponsored. Or the tweet is sponsored. You are alerting them to that fact." Taylor Bradford "Disclosures are mandated by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC)." Taylor Bradford "The key things that you need to pay attention to in there (in the Dot Com Disclosure guidelines from the FTC) is that a disclosure has to be clear, concise and conspicuous." Taylor Bradford "The rule states that it (your disclosure) has to be before your first outbound link." Jennifer Salter "When it comes to disclosures on your website or your blog, that's it. That's the bottom line. You have to disclose. If you get paid for something. You have to disclose that you got paid." Taylor Bradford "You have to tell them (your reader) because they need to take that into consideration in whether or not you have a biased opinion on the product or service or something. If they don't know that you received compensation for something, they are going to take you at face value. But what if you did receive compensation, you might blur the lines a little bit on something if you weren't satisfied or what not. People need to know that kind of stuff." Jennifer Salter "You do not want to dupe a consumer. They can go right to the FTC and report you for that." Taylor Bradford "A person coming over from Pinterest doesn't understand the blogging world, if they are not a blogger themselves. You have to be writing like they don't know there's rules." Taylor Bradford "You have to write like they (your readers) know nothing and you are explaining from the very beginning and in the most basic form." Jennifer Salter "Do not use hashtag #sp because your typical person does not know what that stands for." Taylor Bradford "You can't use the "I didn't know"." Taylor Bradford "You need to start asking questions, especially if this is something you want to do to start making some side hustle money from."

The cool thing about that is that you are getting your content out in front of their viewers." Jennifer Salter "We live in an image-based society." Jennifer Salter "I think you have to ask yourself a couple of questions before you decide if you are going to host a link party. It's a lot of work. It's not something you just decide to do and if you want it to truly grow, you're going to have to put the time and effort behind it. And you also have to ask yourself, 'why are you doing it?'" Taylor Bradford "If you are dropping your own links, you are hoping that you will potentially have more eye balls on your posts." Taylor Bradford "You always want to be asking yourself, 'Is this beneficial to my ideal reader?' 'Is this answering their questions?' 'Is this providing them value?' Because those are the people, your readers, are the people that are continuing to come back to your website." Taylor Bradford RESOURCES AND LINKS MENTIONED *Links below may contain Affiliate Links.

If you are getting paid to write about said brand or service or product or whatever, if it's in money or product compensation, you need to be no-following these links. That tells Google that you either a) don't trust the source or you've been paid. One of the two." Taylor Bradford "If you are being paid to talk about a brand or service, your links going to that brand or service have to be no-follow links." Taylor Bradford "Some people will say, oh well it's just Google. But, Hello! It's GOOGLE! Google runs the internet. If you blog, you are on the internet. And you do not want to piss off the Google gods...EVER!" Jennifer Salter "It's going to hurt your brand and their brand simultaneously if you don't follow these rules." Taylor Bradford "When it comes to this kind of stuff, go to the source." Jennifer Salter "Ignorance is not bliss." Taylor Bradford "Start doing your research on how to go about doing these things the right way." Taylor Bradford "Do your own research and know 100%. Even in the articles that you and I have written about these kinds of subjects, we have both said we are quoting these sources, but go read these sources for yourself. Interpret them yourself. Get the knowledge in your own head so that you can stand up for your own brand." Jennifer Salter "At the end of the day, no one else is representing you."

I don't necessarily think you need to have a whole lot of content in the back burner to get started blogging. I think the biggest thing you need to do is just start blogging." Taylor Bradford "We didn't have anything when we started. It was a wing and prayer when we got started. And I think sometimes that's the best way to learn." Jennifer Salter "You don't really find your voice [in your blog]...you're not going to be able to pinpoint that [your voice] until you get started and start developing your audience." Jennifer Salter "Get yourself into like-minded Facebook groups and start interacting with people that might be in your business niche. Or maybe it's solopreneurs or creative entrepreneurs, some kind of Facebook group where you can literally if they have a weekly thread or a daily thread where you can throw your brand new content out there. Then you can start getting some eyes on that and start building kind of your self-confidence behind your content." Taylor Bradford "Every blogger starts at zero. Every single one of us." Taylor Bradford "Start with your customer's number one question. That should be your first blog post." Taylor Bradford "People need to know the why behind your business." Jennifer Salter "It's important to put your face out there....you are your brand, regardless of what direction you take it. You are you and you are your brand. You have to put your face on that."

And that is something that you need to sit down and have a discussion with yourself and say this is how often I'm going to post and these are the days I'm going to post.

I think one of the hard things when you are a creative is, you know, we kind of tend to think if something is our baby, and when we have an idea or a vision of how we want to do something, that there is only one way to get there. And the truth is, there are a lot of different methods. Really letting people use their own method, and as long as everyone has the same goal and the same vision, that's the main thing." Angela Correll "We all can do a lot of things, but there are only a few things we can probably do well." Angela Correll "Doing things in excellence takes time and energy." Angela Correll "Sometimes you can rob someone else of an opportunity by trying to do everything."

Taylor Bradford "When I do a book review, I will always go and find the author's twitter handle and their facebook page.

An opt-in is a freebie. Something you give people to sign up for your email list." Taylor Bradford "It's important to have an opt-in so that you can get people interested in the content that you are creating every day or every other day or however often you are creating your content for your website or your blog." Taylor Bradford "You want to be able to provide something else that's unique to who you are and what you are creating on your website or your blog. And provide that specifically to the people that want to sign up to get your stuff in their inbox." Taylor Bradford "Here's the thing: a brand new subscriber probably hasn't read your content from a year ago. And what better way to purpose what you've already written in the past by putting it into a PDF." Taylor Bradford "Allowing people to kind of have a little bit more behind-the-scenes access to you, so that they can get to know who you are and become an avid reader of whatever you create." Taylor Bradford "If you create a drip campaign and they want it all at once, add something extra to kind of boost that." Community member, Quita from Audacious Biz "If you are wanting to grow your community through your email list, I would do more than just your RSS automatic feed to their [your subscribers] email."
