Alright, alright, alright! So, sorry it’s been a minute — forever buried in gift guides and such ahead of the holidays, and OMG we installed a new geothermal heating system at my house (because greener = cleaner, and clean = queen) and GASP, we lost power because of *someone* tinkering with the electrical panel. Anywho, I’m back in the saddle with good news.
For those of you I’m close with, you’ve already known for a while. For my wider circle of friends, probably not, and I haven’t really made it publicly official till this week, but hey, hey — you’re looking at the Affiliate Home Editor across TMBI publications. That means I’m ya girl across our major titles when it comes to related shopping and product content, gift guides, reviews, retailer comparisons, and all that jazz.
For RD.com I may write anything from the coziest matching loungewear sets to mattress reviews, whereas Taste of Home content is obviously more focused on food, kitchen, and interiors. Family Handyman is just what it sounds like, and yes, I’m even spearheading that same home affiliate genre at Birds & Blooms. If you know me well enough to be IG friends, you know I’m obsessed with my garden and have eight chickens… so HOORAY! Lots more content and details to come, but that’s a fun top-down overview.
Onto the nitty-gritty, shall we?
What I’m working on now/need pitches for:
RD.com/Reader’s Digest: Still need a few more great unique gift items for everyone in the family. Please, no supplements. You’d be disappointed if you got a bottle of weightlossburner3000 for the holidays — gifts should be kind. As always, major .com retailers or skimlinks-ready smaller retailers, and if your client is awesome about social shares on positive press… mention that. If your client isn’t great about that, boo. Need pitches by tomorrow. Deadline looming. bryce@theluxuryspot.com
Family Handyman: Heated outdoor blankets, anyone? Pitch me if you rep one! Need major .com retailers, amazon, skimlinks-ready smaller retailers, etc. Pitch by Friday AM. bryce@theluxuryspot.com
Reader’s Digest: The best artificial Christmas trees for every style and budget. Pitch me major retailers, amazon, skimlinks smaller retailers, and etsy for this one. Need by EOW. bryce@theluxuryspot.com (yes, forever using this email)
