HMi-Header-Large-Black

NY | SEA | LA

A major online retailer is entering the realm of travel services, and we are currently recruiting bloggers from New York City, Seattle, and Los Angeles for an exciting advertorial campaign to coincide with their launch.

This has large potential to become so much more. We have an open-ended contract with this company – but as it is the first time that they are working directly with new media influencers, their willingness to continue will be solely based on the success of this campaign.

Details of the trip

  • Travel will be during mid-May (significant preference for the week of May 11), for 4 nights in total (2 each at 2 different properties which will be pre-determined and arranged by Client).
  • This will be a self-directed road trip, highlighting “city break excursions” from NYC, Seattle and LA. You will be able to develop your own itinerary, but it will be subject to Client approval.
  • All expenses (excluding alcohol) will be covered (within an adequate cap). You will also be compensated.

In return

  • You will commit to minimum guaranteed exposure on your blog and across your social media networks:
    • 2 blog posts: one post pre-travel (announcing product, trip, and sweepstakes), the other within two weeks post-travel. Trackable links to be provided for your use within posts.
    • 1 Facebook post, 3 to Twitter and Instagram per day of active travel.
    • Blog posts must be posted to Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest.
    • 4 “discoveries” to be posted to Trover.
    • Additional support as requested (minimal) – but as this is accompanied with a giveaway, extra promotion is encouraged.
  • You will provide “reach” statistics upon request, and use trackable links as requested.
  • You will provide two stories with appropriate photos for the Client blog (which holds a Google PR8 ranking). You can either syndicate what you will post on your own blog, or provide original content.
  • You must follow FTC rules of full disclosure.
  • If chosen, you will be required to sign an NDA about the client and project, as well as a contract agreeing to all of the parameters above.
