o just to clarify
She wants to support small business
She will support small business by doing shoutouts
She will only promote brands she believes in
translation .... I will mention brands who send me free stuff
She would argue her time is valuable, I think we can all dispute that
it’s not a bad return on a 20sec mention ...when you’ve added up the value of the products
And of all this stuff is so brilliant, why then is it chucked to the side days or weeks later to make room for bragging about the next similar item
this country is on its knees, many Kids going without even for the basics and she continues to twist the knife .... more important things in life than a cupboard packed with plastic containers with a mountain of cereal to suit every whim and the constant handing of toys
When you read in this weeks news a doctor in the Royal Hospital highlighting kids are coming in so hungry they are stuffing toast down their nappies in case they don’t get fed again - it breaks my heart
These people need to take a huge reality check
I get that the smaller business are struggling and wanting to get their name out there but the larger ones should be ashamed of themselves having anything to do with them in the current climate
They should be testing the integrity of these people and approaching them for a shout out on the understanding that the product is then being sent to a local charity or Christmas appeal or a donation in kind made instead of being sent to them
Now if you had a post up Donna saying you had been approached by that electric car company and you give them a visit but didn’t accept the product as your kids have more that enough and you were donating it to cash for kids SVDP or something similar , and highlight that too, I can guarantee you would get the post likes and super like saves you crave without constantly wondering why you have now engagement and begging for the likes
