This book: 50 Things to Know About Getting Free Stuff To Review: Understanding What it Takes to Get Offers shares tips and tricks for reviewing products and getting products to review. Many people will tell you that all you that it is an easy way to get free products. Although there's nothing wrong with that, it does take some time and work to jump into that market.
Building relationships with companies is the most important piece of the process but that comes with work and time -- sometimes lots of time.
This book teaches you tips and tricks that can help you understand how to sell yourself to readers and companies. It will help you create a blog, find products to review, and write engaging content that can be shared over many social networks. By the time you finish this book, you will know what your niche market is and how to get products that fit inside that niche to review.
Having been a blogger for about five years now but a product reviewer for only about one, this book was somewhat helpful. If you're motivated enough to put some effort into finding sources of free products, this system will work.
The advice is to start a blog based on your interests and experience and build up a following. Having this following makes you a more attractive reviewer, since your reviews will be reaching a larger audience. Then it's a matter of finding companies with product lines that would appeal to your niche audience and asking to receive free products for review. I'm very happy that the author emphasizes that product reviewing is not a business but it does require commitment.
