Editor's Notes
- #3: Ask the audience
- #4: Some people love to blog because it’s their passion to share their experiences on their respective blogs. There are a lot of niche to choose from.
- #5: It’s okay to enjoy the freebies but you must limit yourself bragging it. Companies might think you’re a freeloader. We don’t need freeloaders in attending events. First impression lasts. You’re attending events because you want to share it to your blog readers. Blogging is a passion, not for the lootbags that you receive in attending events.
- #8: Companies and PR firms depends on the stats of your social media accounts.
- #12: Being a blogger, you have to be profession in all aspects.
