I love to hear from businesses who like what I’m doing and want to partner with me to get their message out. If what you’re doing is a good fit with my message and readers, and especially if you have a parent-run business with a focus on safe, sustainable products, I would be happy to accept advertising from you. I particularly love to accept ads for handmade goods.
I’m in the process of launching a new advertising program on Strocel.com. I am shifting my focus to smaller businesses who want to connect with my audience, specifically. I’m dropping my advertising rates significantly, and offering the occasional free monthly slot. If you’d like my rates, or you’d like to be eligible for advertising sales or free spots, subscribe to my advertising mail list here. You can expect to receive an email from me about once a month. If you’d just like my rates, drop me a line.
I do not run sponsored posts. I also do not publish traditional product reviews. I’m giving you a heads-up because, hey, why waste anyone’s time? I will occasionally work with people who I find personally compelling in order to get their story out, but their story should be about how awesome they are, and not how awesome their dish soap is. If you have any questions about this, please be in touch. I’m more than happy to chat with you!
