Problogger had a guest post about PR People and their connection with product reviewers. It was a pleasure to see that bloggers who write product reviews made it to such a well known blog and got 102 comments too. The subject of the post was about changes in how publicists now work with reviewers since the recession.
Krizia, the author of the guest post and of the blog Eat Smart Age Smart, shared that although she continued to receive pitches from PR people, they were either no longer willing to send product samples, sending smaller size samples or requesting a great deal of information via email about her blog. There were also mass pitches instead of personalized ones and no more sponsorships. Things had dramatically changed from being paid for review posts and getting so many samples that her house was overloaded.
