find blog relevant
Building the connection
can’t just be a product review
make them notice you= tweet at them
help them out- mutual promotion= comment on their blog posts, share them, repost them
they are busy- make it easy for them to find information they need. Have a media or press section on TheNomadik website that features press releases/ and about section with the story, mission, vision/ a contact section with all social media links
They like numbers- so pitch with 5 reasons, 3 things or 10 best to grab their attention
Prove you are trendy
Once it’s posted
spread the link everywhere (mutual promotion)
thank the blogger, maybe write short snipit on him/her
