How Pinch of Yum Works with Brands

It’s another FBP Rewind episode today, and we’re so excited to revisit our July 2020 interview with Jenna Arend from the Pinch of Yum team!

Jenna is the General Manager at Pinch of Yum and in this episode, she gives you a behind-the-scenes tour of how the Pinch of Yum team uses processes to handle their sponsored content work.

Between establishing a system for initial conversations with brands to contract review, we’re hoping that you’re able to take some of the systems that the Pinch of Yum team relies on and use them to streamline your own sponsored content efforts.

A quote from Jenna Arend’s appearance on the Food Blogger Pro podcast that says, 'You know your brand the best, so you have every right to make recommendations outside of their initial brief.'

  • What Jenna does for Team Pinch of Yum
  • What it was like when Pinch of Yum worked with an agency on sponsored content
