Hi Everyone!!
I’m super excited to announce that we are now accepting submissions for our 2015 Holiday Gift Guide! Our goal this year is to compile an awesome Holiday Gift Guide that will include items perfect for everyone on your shopping list: Kids, Babies, Dad, Mom, and more!
Over the past seven years, our gift guides have been a major hit and this year is to make it BIGGER AND BETTER THAN EVER!
I have two daughters (23 & 20) and two sons (4 & 8), but no worries if you have an item that doesn’t fit my children’s age range. I have additional contributors that are available for reviewing products as well.
Why Be Included In Our Holiday Gift Guide:
From November 1 through December 22, we will feature gift ideas on As They Grow Up. This is the best time to get your product out there since so many of my readers will be making lists and online shopping continues to increase!
So what do you get?
As part of As They Grow Up 2015 Holiday Gift Guide, your brand will receive:
- A featured blog post on As They Grow Up (not just a snippet)
- A minimum of two tweets promoting your product/brand
- An Instagram Post
- A post on Facebook
- Inclusion in our Holiday Gift Guide 2015 Pinterest Board
- Inclusion in our Holiday Gift Guide roundup page
Last year was the first year that we did a dedicated Holiday page promoting all our gift recommendations and it was a major hit. I include a photo of the product/brand and a link to the review. This is a great way for readers to find exactly what they are looking for.
The Roundup page will also be advertised through social media as well as being linked through our a linked image on our sidebar. This allows for greater visibility. The Roundup page will stay up on our site through June 2016.
How to be included in the Holiday Gift Guide Roundup Page:
There is no additional fee to be part of the Holiday Gift Guide RoundUp page, but there is a minimum value of $25. The minimum can be met with a single product or a combination of several smaller products. Only full-sized products can be submitted for review, and will not be returned.
