Likely fit
The resource solves a practical creator, research, publishing, or privacy problem and can be described with clear disclosure and supportable claims.
Resource Partner Intake Brief
A structured first email for tools, books, platforms, and products that want manual review for a resource listing, affiliate relationship, referral path, or paid placement.
Use this before asking for a listing
The intake brief keeps resource partnerships reviewable. It does not approve a listing, create an endorsement, reserve placement, quote a price, collect payment, create an affiliate relationship, or promise traffic, clicks, rankings, approval, or revenue.
A useful resource pitch should make the category fit, reader value, commercial terms, claim support, and disclosure requirements clear before any link appears on the site.
Status. Manual-review resource intake page; not a checkout, listing order form, affiliate signup, or contract.
Pre-read. Review the resource partner guide and affiliate disclosure first.
Email. Resource brief replies go to luketrodriguez1@gmail.com.
What to include
Copy these fields into the first resource email or use the prefilled email link.
- Resource name and landing page, including public policy or support pages
- Category fit: research, production, publishing analytics, privacy/trust, or another clearly related workflow
- Audience fit: who the tool helps and why it belongs beside a faceless explainer archive
- Commercial relationship: affiliate, referral, paid placement, sponsor, discount code, or unpaid listing
- Claims needing support: performance, privacy, security, publishing, revenue, ranking, approval, or workflow claims
- Disclosure requirements: wording, affiliate terms, discount rules, exclusions, and any regulated-category constraints

These signals help resource partners understand why some pitches can move forward while others need clarification or should be rejected.
Needs clarification
The resource may fit, but the category, audience, commercial terms, disclosure wording, claim support, or support policy needs more detail.
Reject early
Listings should be declined when they rely on hidden influence, unsupported claims, fake discounts, invalid ad behavior, or forced positive coverage.
