Hi, friends! I’ve got more exciting stories in the hopper for this week and next + some non-NYC jobs in today’s listings. I have loads of job listings being emailed each day, and I’d like to include them all, but I do ask that you offer my newsletter the exclusive on your job leads for at least a few days. Why? Well, I love everyone else, but we all deserve a fair shot at offering our audiences unique content, and you deserve to read unique content!
Job listings are ALWAYS free. It’s my way of sprinkling some good karma on our community. If you feel inclined to pay me back, hold a door for a stranger or smile at someone you don’t know. That’s plenty.
Also, question — would some examples of never-do-this-to-commerce-eds pitches be helpful in today’s paid newsletter? Just a yay or nay! I know my examples of GOOD pitches have been a hit!
Working on now:
Reader’s Digest: The best outdoor pillows for every type of patio, deck, and backyard oasis. We need affiliate-ready links, so major retailers like Wayfair, Amazon, Walmart, Target, Etsy etc are good as well as Skimlinks-ready DTC. bryce@theluxuryspot.com
Reader’s Digest: Need a few more house dresses under $100! Have loads in the $100-300 range, but need some more affordable impulse buy-style picks. Again, if you’re not pitching affiliate-friendly links, I more than likely won’t be able to consider. bryce@theluxuryspot.com
As always, bonus points for brands that are good about social media shares. Appreciation of positive press always goes a long way (and it’s so easy)!

For those of you who are new here, please refer to prior newsletters to see how and why these work! If you need a refresher or better understanding of affiliate data and how these insights can work for you, my paid Affiliate Tribe newsletter is a good starting point. It’s cheap + digs into understanding the data and staying ahead of the curve.
In the meantime, enjoy these free stats that few have access to (and those who do pay thousands per year through enterprise programs). A new newsletter will be sent today!

At the beginning of the pandemic I planted a bunch of grape vines. They’re finally robust and starting to produce. I have about 300 baby bunches starting to grow and OMG I’m so excited.
Know what else? Going to go WILD with stuffed grape leaves recipes this summer.
That’s it for now! As always, questions welcome in the comments section. Specific rate requests and affiliate questions should be directed to the Affiliate Tribe newsletters, though. Talk soon :)
YAY on the never-do please, thanks Bryce and can't wait to see the grapes :)
Definite yay on the never-do-this pitches!
