Who else LOVES Home Bloggers like we do?

January 10, 2014 By Nancy McNulty 4 Comments

At Forest Home Media, we specialize in the marketing of home-related businesses or as it’s known in industry – the “Home Category.” This means if you have a business  relating to the building, selling, designing or decorating a home, inside or outside, we are your team. Having spent years (decades really) generating public relations and marketing for this industry, we have worked with the amazingly wonderful traditional media for years and cherish our relationships with those media icons.

Home bloggers have added a completely new stream of unlimited potential for our clients. In the last few years, especially with the introduction of Pinterest and Instagram, the Home Blogger category has exploded. There have been some bright and shiny home blogger rock stars who have had huge success and we are having the BEST time connecting them with client projects which would be of interest to them and their huge readership.

One of the highlights of our 2013 year was helping Southern Living magazine host a media day at the 2013 Southern Living Idea House at the beautiful Fontanel property and many of our home blogger friends showed up. We would like to give a huge THANK YOU to these talented writers. Links to their blogs are below. Please follow them. You’ll be glad you did.

When the Idea House was redecorated for Christmas, in addition to earning a local magazine cover for the home, Forest Home Media hosted several bloggers including KariAnne from Thistlewood Farm ,who was a complete hoot! She had us in stitches the whole time. Here is her re-cap of her visit.

Rhoda from Southern Hospitality Blog came out for the summer blogger event at the grand opening of the Southern Living Idea House. She was as beautiful and gracious in person as she is on her blog.

It was so much fun hanging with these bloggers and watching them work their magic on site, and, then create completely different points of view, original content for each of their blogs. We are eagerly awaiting our next Media Day. We’ve got something HUGE up our sleeves for Spring 2014 with HGTV. Stay tuned for details. Are you a home blogger?

what others say:

"Forest Home Media and Nancy were our hands and feet on the ground to execute a flawless media day open house for the HGTV Smart Home 2014 in Nashville. Starting with a strategic end goal in mind, she knew all the right people to contact, all the right outlets to tap and all the right resources to utilize in creating an amazing event for HGTV. In fact, it generated more local and regional buzz for this project than any Smart Home prior. Nancy is anything but cookie-cutter with custom, solutions-oriented approach producing winning results every time." - Kristin Alm, Director Corporate Communications, Scripps Networks (HGTV) To read more client reviews click HERE
