Class Description:
Partnering with brands in a win-win way is one of the best ways to make an income as a blogger. But how do you get started? What should you offer a brand? How much should you charge? What are the best ways to get noticed by a brand?

She’s seen the good, the bad, and the downright ugly — and she’s made a lot of mistakes!
