Heidi and I started Beta Pleated Chic in August of 2014 and almost two years later we are still loving this project. We have grown in a number of ways over that time, adding columnists and writers, starting a podcast (if you missed the first episode developed by the fabulous Sally Winkler, check it out!), organizing outreach activities, and interviewing many inspiring people.
Next week, we are launching a new aspect of this project: collaborations with corporations through sponsored posts and banner ads. We are really excited to work with some amazing companies to produce interesting and useful content for our readers. We are developing these partnerships as a form of fundraising for several projects that are currently in the works, including a new collaborative TechGirlz workshop with several biotech companies. As we grow, we also require money for really fun things like website maintenance. Woo!
We will be clear and upfront about all sponsored content on BPC. Sponsored articles will include a sponsorship message at the top of the article indicating any sources of funding provided to BPC. Additionally, banner ads will be clearly placed in the right hand and footer regions of the pages. To maintain the tone of the site, we will only work with companies that align with our values and interests.
We hope you find these collaboration posts informative, giving you a peek into what is new at biotech, scientific, and femme-focused companies.
If you are currently part of a company that aligns with the message of BPC, we would love to work with you! For all inquires, please contact megan@betapleatedchic.com.
