Brand Ambassador

One of my favorite tasks as a blogger is to work with companies, big and small, to promote their brand. I’ve been fortunate to work with many companies by reviewing products, test driving cars and spreading good vibes about what I’ve reviewed. All reviews are honest and in no way swayed by any company.

If you need a harsh reminder that other people are going out and having fun while you’re on the couch, or you need something out-of-the-box to do, follow this one.  ” Read the full article here.

Sacre Bleu Wine features Betsy Mitchell and what she has done with The Dallas Socials as a brand.

“Dallas Socials began a couple of years ago when Betsy Mitchell finally grew tired of doing the same old routine in Dallas. She felt that too many other people were also going to the same old places, eating at the same restaurants, dancing at the same bars and as a result not really experiencing the full essence of what Dallas was all about.  She knew the city had a great deal more to offer and making sure that people knew about it became her passion and new mission. ” Read the full article here.

“A group of Dallas foodies had a finger-lickin’ good time this past weekend while taste-testing the best barbecue in Dallas. Why? Because they were given a Texas-sized challenge.

The fun started at the original Sonny Bryan’s, where the bloggers were told to “save room” for all the barbecue goodness. They had no idea where the afternoon would take them, but they did know that they would be spending it in style, cruising the city in Chevys.” Read the full article here.
