Sponsorship Information/Policy
So I've been getting a lot of requests for sponsorships (a sponsorship is where I give a lens for free to a blogger in exchange for a promotion/review), and I don't mind doing them every now and then, but I have decided to draft a policy for sponsorships.
Thanks for looking!
- If you are going to sponsor a lens from me, you will need to pay for the lens via paypal first. Once the review/promotion is complete and has been posted, I will refund you. I really cannot afford to give away free lenses all the time and get nothing in return, so please try to be courteous and hold up your end of the bargain! (Note: you don't have to pay for shipping, I 'll pay this myself IF you are in the US. If you are international, you must pay for shipping and that won't be refunded.)
- Sponsored reviews must be both blog/text based AND Youtube based. This just means that you can post your review to blogger/wordpress/tumblr, etc, but you must also make a youtube video as well.
- The shop name (SugarSandcastle) must be in the title of the review post and video.
- Please be sure to respond to my emails and messages. If you do not communicate with me or ignore my emails/messages, just know that I will not be using you again and you will be placed on a blacklist. This may seem like a no-brainer, but just please be courteous. I am using money from my own pocket by sending my products to you for free, please be kind enough to communicate with me.
- Sponsorships are typically reserved for those with a rather larger following. I don't have a specific number in mind, just know that you should be reasonably popular.
