Hi, I’m Tina, founder of Tina Grows Things.

By now you probably know a little bit about me and there’s a lot more to share. I appreciate you taking the time to learn more about working with me! This page should hopefully give you an idea about how I work with brands, so you can decide if we might be a good fit to work together.

What makes me different?

Many garden bloggers don’t have a background in wildlife biology. They don’t understand how to create healthy ecosystems in gardens so that wildlife can naturally do the dirty work for gardeners. I do. My content focuses on practices that are healthy for the soil, safe for critters and most importantly safe for consumption.

I’m selective about the brands I work with.

I began working with brands in 2020 and have built long-term relationships with a few. I’ve spent a lot of time evaluating the types of brands I’d have the most success with.

My goal is to only work on campaigns that benefit the brand, the ecosystem and my readers. I want my readers to trust and find value in my content and for my sponsors to want to work with me over and over again.

One last thing to keep in mind is that I’m FTC compliant, compliant with the policies of every social media platform. Clear and conspicuous disclosure is important in order for us to move forward with a partnership.

Brands and campaign types that are best fit with my readers:

1. Eco-friendly products and supplies for the garden
2. Products and ingredients that work well with how-to tutorials or DIY projects
3. Services or communities that encourage growing food
4. Natural pest control solutions for the garden
5. Nature inspired apparel or workwear
6. Construction materials or tools

My Partnership Services

Tina Grows Things offers a variety of different partnership programs. While my focus is on Brand Ambassador partnerships, I do offer smaller social media promotional programs for growing brands.

Brand Ambassadorships

My preference is to work with brands on a six-month to one-year basis. This will give my readers a better chance to get to know your brand more in-depth when you’re presented to them multiple times.

Depending upon your goals and budget, we can design a brand ambassador program that incorporates blog posts, video, social shares and more. The entire campaign will be laid out ahead of time so that everyone is on the same page from the start.

Sponsored Posts

Before hiring me as a brand ambassadorship, I do offer single sponsored posts if you’d like to test the waters. Even though it’s a one-time post, my goal is to create content that I can drive readers to over and over throughout the years.

My sponsored posts include one share to Instagram, Facebook and Pinterest. Additional social shares and videos may be added to the standard package. Rates vary depending upon video requirements and the total number of videos contracted. Please contact me for rates or a custom quote.

Affiliate Programs

I am open to working as an affiliate for brands with relevant affiliate programs. Keep in mind that I will only promote products or services that I personally have experience with and recommend.

Is there anything I don’t offer? Yes!

There are services that I do not offer on Tina Grows Things that I’d like you to please be aware of. If you contact me asking about one of these services, you will not receive a reply:

1. In-kind product reviews
2. Purchasing do-follow links
3. Unsolicited guest posts
4. Undisclosed partnerships

Are you ready to talk about working together?

Awesome! I’m excited to hear from you about the possibility of working together. When you contact me, please try to provide as much information as possible. Include what you are looking for and your budget.
