Introduction

First a quick introduction to OhSo – our platform is a growing vegan community that attracts people from all over the world that are curious about the vegan lifestyle, vegan products, eco-friendly hotels and events.

Our members are active across the platform, running their own channels, sharing recipes, and selling their products in our marketplace.

The interview series

A few weeks ago, I was approached by a fellow vegan in Australia inviting me to participate in an interview, where I could introduce OhSo to her audience.  The word “interview” was a little daunting as I had never done any such thing.  But, I really enjoyed the process.  And I am really grateful to Justine, the blogger, for the experience.

Here’s the interview conducted by Fire & Tea.

I choose not to use social media to promote OhSo.  A measured decision.  Nonetheless, what I found was, even 2-3 weeks after the interview, I was still getting a steady, healthy, daily trickle of visitors coming over to OhSo from this interview.

So, it got me thinking.  The process is simple. It’s a fantastic way to introduce a business or blogger to my audience.  I pose simple questions that you, the interviewee can expand on as you wish, giving you the freedom to introduce your business in your own words, as you wish.

Some people have contacted us asking if we charge for this interview.  The answer is “Of course not!”  The interviews offer unique content for our members and visitors.  And that, for us, is a win.  For you, our interview provides you a healthy, relevant backlink back to your site.  We share the interview with our community so you can get some healthy traffic. If you share your interview with your followers then your backlink will get more and more readers, and, thus, more prominence for your business.  It’s a win-win situation for us all.

So, here’s how this is going to work :

1. The questions

The questionnaire includes simple questions designed to give you the space you need to expand on your answers in your own way, to introduce your business as you wish.  Because this invitation has gone out to different vegan businesses and blogs in different parts of the world catering to different people, some questions may not apply to your business.  In this case, simply don’t answer them.

Pick the questions you want to answer only.

2. The interview

Once I get your answers, I will prepare a short introduction to your interview.  I will add any material you provide me with – images, videos, podcasts, links to your site.

3. Pre-approval

Once it’s ready, you will receive a notification inviting you to pre-read the final text before it is published.  Please make sure you add our email to your whitelist to make sure you receive this notification because your interview will not be published without pre-approval from you.

To whitelist our email, simply add it to your contact list in your email provider.  Our email is [email protected]

4. Publication

Your interview will be published in the most relevant area of our community for your business.

I hope you enjoy the process.  If you have any questions before participating, you can contact me from here.
