I occasionally review products and services on Scarlet Words, especially when I find something that I want to share with the world!  If you spot a product review on my blog you can feel confident that it is sincere and written without consultation with the brand.  I appreciate that most of us are hammered with enough advertising in our lives and I will never steer you towards something that I don’t genuinely adore!

I am very happy to hear from businesses who would like to introduce themselves to me or my audience, but please understand that I receive a lot of enquiries and only write about the things I care about.  If I choose to write about your product it is because I consider it to be genuinely relevant to my readership, and because I am prepared to vouch for it personally.

This blog is not for profit and I do not accept payment for a review.  Scarlet Words does not accept advertising in the sidebar, paid links or paid reviews.

 

Is my blog/shop/business right for Scarlet Words?

Anybody who really reads my blog will have a pretty good understanding of the sort of topics I like to talk about.  As a guide, I love hearing from other people about:

- Traditional artists & illustrators
- Handmade products with a clean, modern aesthetic
- Your creative, colourful & positive blog
- Your stylish little etsy shop
- Papergoods, stationery and art supplies
- Photography, and photography equipment (especially Nikon)
- Homewares, soft furnishings
- Melbourne businesses & attractions (especially cafes, B&Bs, venues)
- Delicious, foodie-related things
- Cute accessories
- Australian wine

I’m not very likely to write about these sorts of things:

- The latest cleaning product
- Home appliances
- Cars
- Your band (unless you’re amazing, then sure!)
- Cereal, lunchbox snacks, superfoods or supermarket promotions.

Press releases are fine as long as they are accompanied by a “hello” and some context.  I try to respond to every enquiry, even if it’s to let you know that we’re not a perfect match.
