Response Time to be Expected:
You should expect to hear from a member of our team by email within TWO weeks of your submission. In the event you do not hear back please don’t hesitate to reach out. Your submission has either not made its way to us or we are in need of a sweet pestering :)! Please don’t get frustrated if your submission isn’t accepted, there are many reasons submissions are denied, frequency of the type of submission, submission being out of season, need to maintain an equal balance for content from throughout the region, not falling within RMB’s aesthetic, not enough content, time since submission occurred, submission not being from within region and many more.
