Welcome to The Yapper Gazette, where we run on storytelling, questionable decisions, Nicolas Cage references, and the occasional snack break. Since I value your trust and my ability to keep the lights on, here’s the unfiltered scoop on sponsorships and affiliate links.
Sponsorships (AKA: When Brands Pay Me to Yap)
Sometimes brands reach out and say, “Hey, can you talk about us to your little internet cult?” And sometimes I reach out to brands like a Victorian orphan asking for more soup, except the soup is marketing budget.
Either way, if a brand wants to work with me, here’s the rule:
If it doesn’t fit The Yapper Gazette vibe, it doesn’t make it through the door.
If a company shows up with something I wouldn’t use, wouldn’t recommend, or wouldn’t proudly yell about on LinkedIn at 2 a.m., I’m not touching it.
No weird detox teas. No miracle gummies. No “make $50K a week from home selling cloud lizards” programs. No promoting products I truly hate or buying products to promote and then returning them without being honest about it.
If I do partner with someone, it means:
- I like them
- I think you might like them
- They didn’t make me question my morals
- And yes… sometimes they paid me (shocking, I know)
But you’ll always know when something is sponsored because I will tell you loud and clear. No sneaky business here. This is the Yapper Gazette, not a reality show confessional.
Affiliates (AKA: If You Buy Something, I Might Get Burrito Money)
Sometimes I link to products, tools, or things I actually use and love. If you click and buy, I may earn a teeny-tiny commission. Like… “treat myself to a gas station snack” kind of tiny.
Affiliate links cost you nothing, but they help keep this chaotic media empire alive.
No one is paying me to push these. I don’t highlight products because of money. I highlight them because they’re good, useful, hilarious, or iconic.
(Or because Nicolas Cage would want me to.)
Final Yaps
If you’re a brand and want to work together send an email to Yapper@theyappergazette.com
Preferably about something fun, useful, or extremely feral in the best way.
