I'm a full-time mummy

I have received a number of emails and comments from my followers asking how I get to review products and apps so I decided to list down my tips and post it (maybe weekly?) to share my experience and tips. Feel free to drop me an email or comment if you want to find out more or anything else.

Last week, I shared my second tip in getting products to review, which is SNOOP AROUND! Here goes my third tip:

TWITTER & FACEBOOK!

Yes, amongst the gazillions Tweets and updates popping every seconds, you can still find treasure (in this case product reviews) in it!

Now what you need to do:

• Make sure you have a Twitter and Facebook accounts (well, you can still see Tweets or Facebook updates if you don't have a Twitter and Facebook accounts but it is better if you have an account so that potential sponsors can contact you back!
  
• For Twitter, look out for keywords like 'product for reviews' or 'looking for bloggers' etc. If you see any Tweets of review pitches, reply the Tweet and let them know you are interested! I have personally received a lot of products to review just by searching via Twitter!
• For Facebook, watch out for reviews posted or pictures tagged etc on other bloggers' fanpages! You'll be surprised I actually get products to review from Facebook too!
• Btw, do you know I sometimes shared out review and/or giveaway opps on my Facebook page too? So yes, don't forget to follow my Facebook page too!
  

There you go, my 3rd blog tips on getting products to review.

Try it yourself and let me know the outcome!

Stay tuned for my next blog tips next week!

** P.S: Please note that it is always better if your blog has good following and good PR rank as these factors help a lot when you request for a product to review.

Last week, my cousin's daughter passed away. She was their first child and was just 3 months old.

I didn't know the exact details of the cause of death, I was told by another cousin that the baby was found not breathing by her nanny on Monday morning and her parents rushed over to pick her up from the nanny's place and then rushed to the hospital. The doctors managed to resuscitate her but she's practically brain dead even though the heart beat was there. She passed away 2 days later.

Just like that, a life cut short...

You know, sometimes when you feel frustrated with your kids:

- think about the parents who lost their child like this

- think about the parents who suffered miscarriages or had stillborn and never get to see their or touch their baby at all

- think about the couples who cannot even get pregnant and never get to experience being pregnant and feel the growing belly bump and being kicked by their baby

Think about that and start appreciating your children...

Last week, I shared my first tip in getting products to review, which is JUST ASK! Here goes my second tip:

SNOOP AROUND!

Now what you need to do:

• Yes, snoop around! Browse around the Internet - look out for other bloggers websites, preferably those that does lots of reviews! 
• See what products they are reviewing.
  
• You can also check out their 'REVIEWS' tab or archive posts to get more information.
  
• Another way is to check out the sidebar of those big/popular blogs as these bloggers normally put up badges of being affiliated with or a member of some companies where they are reviewing the products from.
• You can then check out the company or sponsors of the products being reviewed by these bloggers and email to ask for an opportunity to review their products. This then leads to my previous tip #1 which is JUST ASK!

I know of some bloggers who are following my blog who did the above as I can see after my review post was published, they too get to review the same product, so yes, I know you snooped around my blog! Hahaha...

So there you go, my 2nd blog tips on getting products to review.
