When you advertise on this blog, you join ranks with one of the nation’s most sought-after and trusted manners, etiquette, protocol, and gracious living experts! As a respected national etiquette expert featured in magazines, newspapers, TV, and radio for over ten years, my readers return to the blog multiple times each week to gain the latest tips and advice to equip them to shine in all their encounters. (For Maralee’s full credential statement, please click on the “Meet Maralee” link on this blog.)

My readers trust me and the products and services I represent to assist them in improving and simplifying their lives and helping them change the ways other perceive, interact with, and respond to them at home, at work, and in their communities.
A gracious life is all about our interactions, intentions, and our desires. No jet-setting is required! It can be lived on a budget and in traditional rural and suburban environments. My readers appreciate and seek products and services that are cost conscious, family friendly, and appeal to the tastes and sensibilities of families with traditional Judeo-Christian values.
If I fully believe that your product or service is something my readers would appreciate hearing about and that they would enjoy or benefit from, then we can discuss partnering together.
I will not promote a product or service that I have not had the opportunity to personally experience. To get the conversation started, please contact me and let’s get started!
Here are some of the ways you can partner with this blog:
- Buy advertising
- Offer your product or service for free as a giveaway to one or more of my readers. (I will need one also to make sure that it’s something appropriate for my readers.)
- Volunteer to do a guest posting. (At this time only two guest blogging posts are scheduled monthly.)
- Offer to trade advertising banners or buttons, size for size, depending on your readership numbers.
These rates reflect that your product or service is being endorsed by a nationally recognized expert in her field.
Advertising Investment Details
125 x 125 banner: $75 for 30 days
299 x 200 banner: $100 for 30 days
160 X 600 banner: $125 for 30 days
300 X 250 banner: $150 for 30 days
There is a 20% discount on the second and subsequent months when purchasing two or more months at once.
Want to Offer a Giveaway?
My reader’s love gifts and I love offering them! Because placement of your product or service implies my endorsement, there is a financial investment on your end in addition to the cost of the gift you are offering. This cost also covers Manners Mentor, Inc. administrative costs and mailing the gift to the winner.
Here are the details:
- Supply two of the items you would like to give away—one for me to examine, use, and keep, and one new one for the lucky reader.
- Include payment for $150. This covers cost of your ad space for the 14-day giveaway period and for my administrative costs.
- Each give-away period lasts for 14 days. In addition to your 125 x 125 ad on the site, I will mention your giveaway in each blog post I make during that 14-day period. On the fifteenth day, a winner will be chosen via www.random.org. The winner will be notified and announced that same day in a separate blog post. The prize will be mailed within 72 hours of announcing the winner.
The easiest way for you (and me too!) is to bookmark on www.Delicious.com and tag your link for www.MannersMentorBlog.com. If I feel it’s something my readers would enjoy knowing, I’ll mention it in a post! I know you’ll do the same for me.
