Happy Friday, everyone!

What an incredible session we had yesterday … I always have so much fun co-hosting these Zooms with my work wives, Aly and Alice! And it was so great to see so many familiar and new faces in the Zoom too.

We spent 1 hour and 15 minutes diving deep into all the things every publicist wants to know about HGG pitching!

In total, we tackled 81 questions submitted by publicists, broken down into the following categories:

  • Timing

  • Formatting

  • Angles

  • Price Points

  • 2023 Trends

  • Subject Lines

  • Pitch Tips & Best Practices

  • Affiliate Marketing & Commission Percentages

Yeah, it was a LOT — and I guarantee you that we shared insights you won’t hear anywhere else … insights that could give you and your clients the edge you need this holiday season.

Incredible testimonials we’ve already received:

“I wanted to say a big thank you for today's HGG AMA! It was incredibly helpful and informative. Thanks, again!” — Nathalie

“Thank you all for taking the time to answer SO MANY gift guide questions -- such valuable intel! Have a great rest of your week!” — Alex

“I wanted to take a moment to extend my heartfelt gratitude to each of you for the invaluable insights and knowledge you ladies shared during today’s Ask Me Anything session. Your expertise and dedication truly shone through and I am incredibly appreciative of the guidance and support you consistently offer within the community. Being part of this community and having the privilege to interact with such empowering individuals has been both enlightening and inspiring. Your contributions are making a remarkable impact, and I am sincerely thankful to be part of this dynamic circle. I am eager to continue learning from and engaging with each of you. Let's keep this wonderful collaboration alive and thriving!” — Amy

“Thank you so much for today’s gift guide tips session. I’m incredibly grateful to you all for sharing your time and wealth of knowledge. It’s appreciated more than you know. I’m already in the process of getting a client to raise their affiliate commission for the holiday season. Great tip! Another big takeaway for me was including photos in the body of pitches vs. just links to the product images. Looking forward to what will hopefully be a fruitful holiday gift guide season!” — Mindy
