Business 2 Blogger – Connecting In A New Way
Holly Homer (TexasHolly), Shauna Callaghan and Jay from HalftimeLessons.com have recently founded Business 2 Blogger. They connect business with bloggers for free and offer their services to bloggers who may not be the “hot bloggers” at the moment. They are trying to “level the playing field” to allow opportunities for bloggers who are passionate about a product and follow through on what is being asked of them.
If you’re a blogger and sign up for them, accept an offer and follow the rules, you’re likely get more offers. If you don’t follow through, sorry, see you next time around. Their reach to companies is also free. They provide help along the way on how to promote to bloggers. Business 2 Bloggers is the go between. No emails are exchanged between businesses and bloggers, so there’s no concerns about spam.
There are specific Terms of Service for both bloggers and businesses to follow. The rules are straightforward and simple to follow. They include the FTC disclosure policy for all bloggers to use on all campaigns and even provide a video and some examples of how to write a disclosure policy. Although this is a business, there’s fun involved too. Read through What’s All This About, for example, and you’ll find humor and sarcasm to lighten things up a bit.
As I’ve written before, connecting with advertisers is one of the most important things that a blogger who wants to write product reviews must do. I see Business 2 Blogger as a new way to connect. I’m hoping that it will be successful and be around for a long time. For that to happen, more bloggers and businesses need to get involved and spread the word. Do that on your own blog by writing a post like this. You can also let businesses that have never worked with bloggers before, small businesses, and those that regularly use bloggers to review their products or to write about their services to get involved with Business 2 Blogger. The personal touch that is provided can make a huge difference on how the relationship between these two entities can grow.

I’m a recently new member & am eager to see what opportunities this opens up for my blog! Great post.
I joined B2B recently and it seemed like a no brainer, it can’t hurt, and potentially could really help. I’m excited to see it grow. Thanks for featuring it.

Great post! I recently signed up for Business 2 Blogger, and look forward to utilizing the services they provide.
I joined just yesterday. My first email from Business2Bloggger made me want to jump start this opportunity. I’m looking forward to what they have more to offer, surprises come along the way I bet. One good way to establish partnerships and build more in the future.
Good stuff! Thanks for the feature
Connie, I signed up as soon as I saw you mention you mention Business2Blogger! What a great concept – and I love the humor, wit and sarcasm which puts the ‘human’ aspect into the business. I’ve put up the badge and will write a post. AND look forward to LOTS of work
I have also recently added Business2Blogger and have been really impressed with the opportunities that are out there! Truly a brilliant idea and I think a helpful one for getting businesses and bloggers together!
I recently joined B2B and the offers have been super, the girls know their stuff and are linking together people like crazy!
As a business you’d be crazy to skip the super promotion opportunity and as a blogger you’d be crazy to pass up a great way to promote yourself and your blog to new resources!
As you all already know I’m LOVING B2B! You all rock and I’m looking forward to more opportunities!

If a comment from me shows up more than once please ignore. My computer burped as I was leaving the other one. Don’t see it here so I’m trying again.
I’m loving B2B as they have brought more to me than I could do on my own.
Great post!
