At Here We Are, we are always interested in products that make life better, brighter, and easier, and we welcome product review inquiries.
If you own a company or are a PR rep, please note the following when requesting a review.
1. If any consideration is provided, it will be disclosed with the review. Our #1 priority is building and maintaining trust with the HWA readers. Consideration does NOT influence the outcome of a review or guarantee a positive response. The HWA motto is, "If I like it, I will tell you, if I don't, I will tell you."
2. Please inquire by email. Certain products may not be appropriate or a "good fit" for HWA; see our Shopping & Reviews category for the types of products we've reviewed. If you think you have a "good fit," email us at luci@HereWeAreWithLuci [dot] com and tell us about your product(s)!
An example of a "bad fit" - we received an email asking for a review of a "refrigerator replacement part" - Huh? Sorry, but busy women don't fix their own refrigerators.
3. Items provided must be non-returnable and full-size OR at least a sufficient representation of the final product and packaging. Samples are fine as long as the amount supplied can be fully tested over time. NOTE: In order to write a thorough review, we use everything thoroughly!
4. Supplying a product does not guarantee a review, hence the need to contact me first before you send product(s).
5. You MUST have an active website. Period. We abide by the Google Webmaster Guidelines for linking to advertorial and native advertising content.
6. You may be asked to provide additional information about a product, e.g., purchasing information, pricing, ingredient clarification. Also, you may be requested to provide: product pictures, a short bio on the company owner or a company profile.
7. Upon acceptance of your product, you will be provided with an address to ship your product. You must pay the cost of shipping your product to LUCIMAC Productions {the parent company of HWA}. LUCIMAC is not responsible for unpaid or insufficient shipping costs; any such package will be returned to sender unopened.
8. Upon publication, we ask that you link from your website to the review article on HWA.
Finally, thank you for your interest, and while this list of rules may seem strict, they are important to maintain trust with our readers. ~ Luci
