An Open Letter to Advertisers

Dear Casper, Leesa, the other latest mattress company, and the many other home decor related single product marketing ploys to have integrated technology with age old manufacturers marketing tactics,

Why is it okay for you to ask me for a free product endorsement?

Do you think that I don’t have enough topics to write about, that I’m just really itching to put thoughts down on my blog about your completely cliche and vague topic that you titled “Essential Decor Items for making a new space feel comfortable and inviting.”

You offer me nothing to reciprocate.
At the very least, couldn’t you promise us a link back, a social media mention, a chance to win a prize, a free gift, or some money to PAY us for the ad that you are asking us to produce for you and share with our community of earned readers?
