Giveaways and Promoting

Giveaways are a great way to expose your business and product! It drives in traffic and makes everyone aware of what you have to offer.

Giveaways are always free on The Five Fish in conjunction with a review. I will list the giveaway on all networks I am involved with, Twitter, Giveaway listing sites and so on and so forth. While the giveaway benefits both your organization and my blog with exposure and traffic, my time is consumed in the process of the promotion. In the event you wish to conduct a giveaway on my blog with NO PRODUCT a $45 administrative fee will be charged.

Let’s talk Reviews!!!

Reviewing done by bloggers, Mom Blogger, Dad Bloggers have become a great word of mouth marketing tool for any company big or small. I can NOT promise you though, that my review will paint you a pretty picture. I am always honest, providing your company and consumers insight into how a family of five, and or myself as the sole user,  used the product and our thorough evaluation of said product. I take my time. I tend be obsessive compulsive with things that come in and out of my home. In other words, I will be very thorough, giving you the best feedback that I can provide.

I prefer to keep each product you ask me to review, as my time to review and provide a thorough evaluation, and as a means of advertisement for your product, on my blog. However, if you prefer the product be returned to your company or passed along, I am always willing to oblige and an administrative fee may be applied. I am very open and easy to work with, when it comes to reviewing YOUR product.

I do NOT charge for reviews as long as the product is kept as a form of compensation for time and services of my website and blog posts. I consider the product a compensation, again, another reason explaining why I prefer to keep the product. Again this is open to communication and I am willing to negotiate on how you would like to work with me on this.

Each product will be tried, tested and thoroughly inspected by either myself, my 6 year old son, my twins (age 2+) and or my husband. We even have a dog that normally helps in testing out anything! I love learning about any product and spreading the word. If it works for me, it’s bound to work for someone else.

I’ve also learned that with reviews, giveaways often come in handy! But that is subject to you and left to your discretion if you would like to provide a second item for giveaway.

If you would like your review posted and done within a time limit, please, please email so we can discuss this. Also reviews are compensatory based on the product received by me, so while free, again the product is considered my payment. If you would like me to review your business services, we can negotiate those terms in depth via email or a phone conversation.

Reviews will be promoted within the same aspects as giveaways. Email for any questions and details!
