David Risley: 5 Tips for Getting a Blogger To Review Your Product

  • Chris · 8 months ago
    Great post, David.

    I know that whenever I get canned messages, whether email or recorded telemarketing or what-have-you, it's so much easier to just reject it outright because who cares? It's not like you'd be hurting anyone's feelings.

    I have always wondered if bloggers liked to get these offers to review products. It's great exposure if you can get your products onto the "better" blogs, but as you said these blogs are better for a reason and they are very picky about what content they put up.

    So... hey.. I was thinking..
    I have this idea.. haha..
    I'll twitter you about it and maybe I can help out with a guest blog post..
    Then I'll hit you with the sales pitch.. lol..

    Good stuff.. keep it up.

    Hi Dave,

    Thanks a lot for posting an answer to my question! My real challenge is to make the message enticing to read. You should exhibit a lot of creativity to make it alluring to a blogger. I can also tell from my experience that I am much more successful in dealing with newer bloggers - just like you said.
    Anyways, I have linked to your blog on the media section of our website ;-)

    Thanks once again!
    Andy

    Some of the products out there are so absurdly redundant that it just isn't worth putting your name to it..

    I hate getting caned emails from companies. Whenever I target a blogger for whatever reason, I always write a personalised email - just for them.
