&lt;p&gt;I just wanted to see if you were currently interested in additional guest bloggers for your blog site.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I see that you&amp;#39;ve accepted some guest posters in the past - are there any specific guidelines you need me to follow while making submissions?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you&amp;#39;re open to submissions, whom would I need to send them to?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;m eager to send some contributions to your blog and think that I can cover some interesting topics.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks for your time,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Tess&lt;/p&gt;

I think we have been using hybrid marketing on occasion ourselves, without realizing it!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Makes sense though. Working only with online marketing OR offline, without tying the two together, is simply less efficient &amp;amp; less effective.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Our small PR company has developed a working relationship with an online marketing firm to ensure that we are able to stay ahead of the game &amp;amp; offer our clients what they need. This decision was made after a couple of competitors started offering online &amp;amp; social as part of their PR campaigns.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I would imagine that in a few years time, if not sooner, any traditional PR company that doesn&amp;#39;t have either in house capabilities, or working arrangements with trusted online partners, will start to loose tenders because of this.&lt;/p&gt;
