No lengthy post here, just a quick & dirty call for pitches as soon as humanly possible.
Writer friends, if you have your own calls for content you’d like posted here just holler. Publicist friends, if you have special opportunities or job offers you’d like shared, same.
Also, yay! Several hundred subscribers after just the first newsletter! Right now I plan to send them a few times a week, but it may expand if the wider media community asks for more/has more needs.
For RD.com/Readers’ Digest (my own articles):
Back-to-school supplies every caregiver should be buying their kids for another year of pandemic learning. Some kids are going back to school, some will be hybrid, some are staying remote. Let’s lean into the reality with these pitches. I have plenty of snack food content already, so I’d like to focus on tried-and-true B2S products that honor the energy of the months ahead. But also as a mom of 5 little kids, AGHHHHHH! #amirite DEADLINE TO RECEIVE IS WEDNESDAY AT 4 PM ET. All submissions MUST be affiliate-friendly.

Again, email Aly directly for this RMN piece at alywalansky@gmail.com
Also, if you’re new-ish to the affiliate content world, here’s an example of my latest Readers’ Digest/RD.com story on shampoo. It’ll give you an idea of how it all works and how shopping content is suggested to audiences in a way that’s appealing and ethical.
Till next time, friends. Have the best day!
