Work With Me

I love writing blog posts covering pickleball paddles (for example: 14mm vs 16mm), and those reviews have been getting some major Google search traffic.

As such, I have had multiple brands contact me with emails such as the ones below.

Hopefully, my love for pickleball paddles, the best pickleball shoes, balls, and all the pickleball accessories (in addition to my obsession with pickleball materials) has given me a unique perspective when I write reviews.

At first, I was not as interested in working with brands as I have been blessed enough to have the funds to satiate my pickleball obsession and I always want my reviews to be 100% honest and unbiased. This allows my readers to trust my reviews.

I still believe that completely, but I realized I do not get to test nearly as many paddles as I would like to because I don’t have the time to research all the different new paddle brands. In addition, I also realized I don’t have to review every paddle I test.

So, that being said, what does it look like to work with me?

Here’s the process:

  1. Contact me at ben@bepickleballer.com with information about your brand and what products you want me to test.
  2. If I agree, I can provide my shipping address where you can send the products. If I am testing paddles, I generally require 2 different paddles to get a sense of paddle quality.
  3. If I like the product, I will write a comprehensive review that is 100% free of charge. If I do not want the product, I will keep the product, but I will not write a review about the paddle. I can pass that feedback to you if you are interested. Following this process ensures that my blog’s integrity stays intact and that I do not have to charge for testing products.
  4. Once my review is live, linking the review from your website is the last thing required.

I may continue to iterate this process in the future, but this process appears to be working well with brands thus far. That said, I am always open to feedback.

Thanks for reaching out, and I look forward to connecting with you soon.
