Since April of 2009, Barbara's Beat has been blogging about family issues;
helping moms find deals; find coupons and resources to save money and make life easier; win giveaways; and learn about consumer issues.
We also promote MOMtrepreneurs and DADtrepreneurs.
With three grandkids, we run the gamut from little girl
parties, princesses, balls and Barbies, to big boys going four-wheeling,
playing sports, and going hunting.

Reviews/Giveaways
We offer honest, valuable product reviews and giveaways on Barbara's Beat as a mutual benefit to your company, by bringing attention to your products or services, while providing a service to our readers learning about products as well as winning them.When we do a review, we use hi-res photos you provide, as well as take our own with the product in use if possible. We also use information about the product that you provide, as well as our own information about the product.
We do provide some links to your media, such as Twitter, Etsy, G+, Pinterest, and Facebook in a review. However, when another product is offered by your company for a giveaway as well, not only do we do a review post, but a Rafflecopter giveaway.
On the Rafflecopter, we select things for the readers to do, like join or follow different media of yours for entries. They also do and follow Barbara's Beat for entries. They may choose which things they wish to do depending on how bad they want to win the item. The more they do, the more chances they have to win.
When the end date arrives, Rafflecopter draws a winner, and we send it to you with the winner's information and you send their prize ASAP.
We always use Rafflecopter.
We always use pics, yours and ours.
We always link the products to the sponsor’s site.
We always send a link to the sponsor when we post the review/giveaway.
We always use all the sponsor’s media – Twitter, YouTube, Etsy, Pinterest, etc.
However, we have to be careful with how we word Facebook and G+ options, because
they do not like their sites to be used.
We always have our posts – all posts - sent out two ways by email – RSS and
email subscribers by Feedburner.
We always have our posts automatically sent to Twitter and FB for
posting.
We also post the giveaway links on our Pinterest board – Giveaways Galore.
We always try to post the links on our sponsor’s FB.
