Right! 

So I really wanna start reviewing products and I have no idea to start and many questions to ask

 

My intent is to open up a new section of my new business and have it concentrate on reviewing products, such as pc parts and peripherals, new monitors etc. My problem is that I have no idea what to do first and how to get things rolling to capture the eye of an audience

 

1. I've been planning to start it in blog form on my current blog but I don't know if it would be better to do them in video form

2. HOW HOW HOW Do I get companies to sponsor me to review their products when I have a very small follower base

 

 

Any help is welcome! 

Thanks again guys!

I would recommend buying products as you've said, your follower base is low. That's the reality of starting small. Buy something which is affordable and then review it.

Also, I wouldn't recommend on putting your website like here, it's advertising. (Not Allowed)

No problem. :P

 

Like I said, You'll need to buy the products want to review. Sad to say it, but companies won't give out products. They only do it for people which a number of followers.

 

I asked for a product review before, they refused.

2. You don't. When you get more followers and people notice that you make quality content, they will contact you. Also whenever you visit some tech convention, go to talk to representatives and give good impression about yourself. In the end, you are going to be one way for them to advertise if they give you product for free.

If you don't mind doing some dubiously moral things you can buy a product, review it and then return it immediately for a refund. With some suppliers this will get your account barred after a while though.
