Yay for free things!

How And Where To Be A Brand Representative
Lauren Borchart

I've had quite a few people ask me what a "Brand Representative" is. Ask me why I post so many pictures on social media and why I keep pushing some products so hard. Well that's because it's my job! I am and have been a Brand Rep for quite a few companies. I've worked with Sand Cloud Towels, Pura Vida, Vaya Lifestyle, Serengetee, Wanderer Bracelets, Pure Tatts, Morro Wear and more. Now I don't work for all of them at once, usually I overlap 3 or 4 but you learn over time what companies are like and who you want to work for.

A Brand Rep is basically a person who represents the company and has to provide various services, such as posting on social media, spreading the word of the company, taking pictures, providing feedback, ect. In return, most companies give free products and many give commission based on how many sales you make.

Here are my favorite companies I've been a Brand Rep for!

Serengetee

Seregetee has a unique program in where it is semester based and targeted towards high school and college students. They have a point system where you get a free item from their store and have to compete in competitions to gain points for prizes and gear. Competitions include specific pictures, videos, and sales earned. Currently you can apply to be a Fall Campus rep on their website and be sure to mention my name when you apply! I got a lot of items from Serengetee which I love to wear, so it was a nice program to participate in.


Wanderer Bracelets

Wanderer Bracelets had a program in which they sent us a lot of bracelets in a rep kit, in addition to a customized bracelet. We had to post weekly on our social media and send in 5 pictures each weekend showcasing our bracelet. In addition to the free bracelets, I also got 10% on all bracelets I sold which is a huge plus! This was their first go around on a Rep Program and they're going to change a few things, so I'm not sure how it'll be for this season. However, applications are open, so feel free to look up Wanderer Bracelets and apply! Gotta do my job so, if you want 10% off Wanderer Bracelets use the code 'LAURENBORCHART10' at checkout!


Sand Cloud Towels

Sand Cloud does not give out anything for free, however, they do give a generous discount on your first towel and a specific code for you to pass out to fiends and family. Based on how many purchases are made using your code and how often you participate in their social media opportunities, you can ear $50 credit to their store! Another shameless plug here, use the code 'Lborchart25' for 25% off your purchase!

If you have any questions please feel free to ask or if you want discounts to some of the other places I listed above message me, it's a great thing to add to resumes and get a little extra cash and gifts!

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.
