[brand:name] Brand Ambassador Program

[brand:name] works with food and lifestyle influencers in many ways including:

• Recipe Development
• Recipe Testing
• Sponsored Posts
• Giveaways
• Sponsored Ingredient Listings
• How To Videos and/or Endorsements

[brand:name]’s Brand Ambassador program partners with influencers on a case-by-case basis in the following ways:

1. Recipe Developers create original recipes on behalf of [brand:name], photograph them, assign the recipe ownership rights to the brand, and then promote those recipes through their social media channels and blog. So their role is multi-faceted. They are recipe developers, advocates of the brand, referral sources, and traffic drivers back to our website. This is a paid partnership. As such, when we partner with recipe developers we look for the following:
   • Strong baking skills and baking knowledge. While formal training is not a requirement, all potential brand ambassadors are reviewed by our corporate chef.
   • Professional quality photography skills.
   • An active and engaged following on social media.
   • A style, tone, voice, and audience aligned with our target audience.
   • An audience that primarily resides in our target markets (TX, LA, AR, MS, AL, FL, NC, SC, GA, VA, TN, KY)
   • A balance between sponsored and organic posts. We only partner with true fans of the brand so when you tell your followers that you love our product, that endorsement is authentic.
   • A per-recipe fee that aligns with your skills and audience size.
   • Creativity and professionalism.
   • Brand exclusivity.
2. Recipe Testers work with [brand:name] to test audience-submitted recipes, as well as modernizing recipes from our vintage cookbooks. When we partner with recipe testers we look for the following:
   • Strong baking skills and baking knowledge. While formal training is not a requirement, all potential recipe testers are reviewed by our corporate chef.
   • Professional quality photography skills.
   • A per-recipe fee that aligns with your skills.
   • No posts promoting any competing brands within the last 6 months.
3. Brand Ambassadors consists of up-and-coming influencers who are strong advocates of the brand. Opportunities could include sponsored ingredient listings, promoted products, co-branded recipes, giveaways, and/or brand testimonials.
   • Strong baking skills and baking knowledge. While formal training is not a requirement, all potential brand ambassadors are reviewed by our corporate chef.
   • A sponsorship fee that aligns with your skills and abilities.
   • Brand exclusivity.
