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!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
