Work with us
Let’s champion something good together.
We love metro Detroit’s businesses, and we love telling people about the great ones. Here’s how to get on our radar — and how we keep it honest.
For local businesses
Want to be featured on Delovely Detroit? We offer partnerships — featured write-ups, newsletter spotlights, and social shout-outs as our audience grows. But here’s the part that makes a feature actually mean something, and we want to be completely upfront about it:
You’re paying for an honest visit — not a guaranteed rave. We come anonymously, on a normal day, as normal guests. You’ll know we’re coming sometime, but not when, what we look like, or what we’ll order. We experience your place exactly the way your real customers do, because that’s the only honest way to do it.
If we love it
You get a genuine, glowing feature that carries real weight — and we’ll always disclose that we partnered, because honesty is the whole point. A Delovely feature is worth having precisely because we don’t hand them out to everyone.
If it’s not quite there yet
You’ll never get blasted publicly. Instead, we’ll share honest, constructive feedback privately — the kind of notes two hospitality lifers would actually find useful. We’re here to help you win, not to tear you down.
Curious about partnering? We’ll tailor something to your place and your goals — just tell us a little about your business and what you’re hoping for.
For PR & media
Publicists, agencies, and venue teams: we’d love to be on your list. Send us your press releases, and invite us to soft openings, media previews, and tastings — we genuinely love getting an early look at what’s coming to metro Detroit.
A quick, honest note on how we operate: an invite or a preview is always appreciated, but never an obligation. We cover what genuinely excites us, in our own honest voice — and we’ll always disclose a comped preview. We focus on food, drink, lifestyle, and things to do across the metro Detroit area.
