How to Become a Sponsored Travel Writer with Katie Seemann | Ep 25

(Disclaimer: Click 'more' to see ad disclosure)

Katie Seemann from @zenlifeandtravel is a mom and travel writer based in Columbus, Ohio. She's an award travel writer for upgradedpoints.com as well as various other websites. In addition to traveling for free using points and miles, Katie also gets paid to travel by producing sponsored content for her blog. In today's episode, we talk about how Katie got started with the game of points and miles and how she has been able to turn the hobby into a lucrative career that she balances with being a stay-at-home-mom.

One of the best ways to get featured on other outlets is by doing guest posts to build up your portfolio. If you're looking to get started with writing guest posts about your points and miles travel, I would love to feature your story on the Geobreeze Travel blog! This is a great way to get yourself featured on my website and Instagram, especially if you are shy about interviewing on the podcast or presenting during one of our monthly hangouts!
