Our Responsibilities as Giveaway Hosts

Date Tue, December 20 2011

You can’t join any review/giveaway blogger network without seeing someone express frustration because a giveaway winner has contacted her, demanding to know where her prize is. As giveaway hosts, we frequently act as a middle man between winners,  and it makes us look bad when those PR reps and companies don’t follow-through. What’s more is [...]
