Policies

As an e-commerce writer, it’s a vital part of my job to stay on top of trends. I get offered a lot of products — hi, PR reps! — and I do accept a handful of them. The products in my areas of expertise are constantly evolving and awesome new brands sprout up every single day. I don’t want to recommend a product that was so hot two years ago; consumers have moved on.

Here’s the thing: I only place products that I’ve personally tried and loved, because the most important policy I have is a commitment to transparency. It’s on me to make sure that everything I recommend is up to snuff, so to speak.

This is all to say that if you’re here to pitch me a product, you’re more than welcome to do so. I might accept it and I might even find a place for it, but there are absolutely no guarantees.
