Betches Media

🏈 We are so thrilled to share that the National Football League (NFL) has drafted Betches as an official media partner to further reach millennial and Gen Z women! This new media partnership gives brand partners the opportunity to co-create content with us and the NFL at core events like the Super Bowl — drawing in new lifelong fans. On the heels of Betches Sports launch earlier this year, we know that scrolling on your phone during the game is a sport in itself. That’s where we come in: to give our audience a premium second-screen fan experience, including behind-the-scenes coverage, interviews with star athletes, and other memorable moments. Thank you ADWEEK and Mark Stenberg for featuring this collaboration! Link: https://lnkd.in/eE8uvw4t Check out the comments to see more.

Sure, we love having plans. But we actually not-so-secretly love canceling them even more. To no one’s surprise, 75% of millennials cancel plans when they simply need a break (because life is exhausting). The Canceled Plans Issue — a brand-new editorial tentpole from Betches — pulls back the curtain on the delicate art of canceling plans. Our issue breaks down the nuances of why we bail on social commitments, why it’s so satisfying when we do it, and how to deal with flakey friends who seem to always be ducking us. (Because sometimes the shoe is on the other foot.) Visit the link below and make sure to check out Instagram for the ultimate guide to canceling plans. Link: https://betches.com/

It’s officially Betches award season! Earlier this week we announced the 2nd annual Betch of the Year Awards, which recognizes and celebrates the internet icons who have caused addictive viral chaos, whose achievements and (ridiculous) antics kept us talking all year long (looking at you Olympics muffin man). Last year, Betches editors crowned White Gladis the Orca and her Army with the top honor, but this year we’re changing things up and asking you all to weigh in. Head to Betches.com to cast your nomination for who should take home the most prestigious award of the year! Link: https://lnkd.in/d2KVscQu

ICYMI: Last weekend, Betches' Senior Manager, People & Culture, Keisha Toussaint and Senior Social Podcast Producer, Candice Maniga headed to Brooklyn for The Creative Collective NYC #CultureCon presented by MAX.

Book Club? Count us in! Did you know 40% of Millennials and Gen Z are part of some kind of activity club? Our Betches audience loves to scroll, but they’re also super into reading. So when we heard that Ferrero Nutella Biscuits wanted to become the ultimate club snack, we knew we had to team up. What better way to kick things off than with our very first Betches Book Club? Here’s the scoop: the Betches Book Club, in partnership with Nutella Biscuits, is officially live and you’re invited. We’re starting strong with a Book Club event in NYC, plus a virtual podcast for everyone to join in the fun and of course, we’ll be serving up a suite of branded content to make sure the partnership is even sweeter. Huge shoutout to Nutella for teaming up with us and for being our go-to club snack! Grab your books, snag some biscuits, and let’s read along together! https://lnkd.in/eq8NiF89
