Submissions

I don’t accept submissions for guest post anymore. Readers are welcome to send me a tip via the form underneath.

Editorial Policy on Samples

Merchants MUST USE the form at the bottom of this page to let me know about their products or announcements. Beware that I will delete, at my own discretion, any comments that I feel are unsolicited advertising by brands or merchants. If you want to reach my readers or host a giveaway, send me an inquire about my advertising opportunities.

I sometimes ACCEPT INVITATIONS to media events or RECEIVE FREE SAMPLES to validate the quality of a product. I don’t return samples to the company. The fact that I attended an event or received a sample never guarantees coverage on At Home with Kim Vallee. There is no guarantee whatsoever that I will write a post, share on Facebook or tweet about a sample I received or an event that I attended — even if we like it. If I write about it, I will inform our readers that I received something from you and it will be done when it fits my editorial agenda.

Because there is only 24 hours in a day, I don’t respond to every submission or invitation that I received.

About the Occasional Sponsored Posts

Note that I put a hold on sponsored posts and other advertising options while I’m working on my blog redesign and rebranding. I will then reexamine the options that I will offer to advertisers.

In the past, I accepted sponsored posts. This service were available to a limited number of brands. When I did it, the post was clearly identified as a sponsored post. I wrote sponsored posts in my own voice. I selected a topic that could appeal to the readers of At Home with Kim Vallee.
