18. Things to Avoid in Your Pitch
Dear editor,
I love your sight! I am the editor-in-chief of mytravelblog.com, an extremely popular blog, and I would love to work with you
sometime! My blog has been ranked in the top 100 travel blogs by thatotherblogger.com and I know my readers would LOVE
to learn more about your tours!
___
I have a HUGE following - 10,000 monthly pageviews and 4,000 twitter followers!
___
I’ve been traveling full-time since 2011 so I can write about almost any destination and I’m always on the move so I’m sure we
can find a place where I can review some tours. I’m going to France soon. Let me know if you need anything!
__
I’d love to write about the Super Deluxe Ultimate 7-Day VIP Exclusive Experience. Can we set this up for three days from
now? I’m traveling with my “photographer” and four “assistants” (ages 3-9) so I’ll need tours comped for all of us.
___
In exchange for this two-hour tour I can guarantee seven blog posts and 15 social media mentions.
____
Thanks,
