If you’re still not sure what a campaign is, read our article about what a campaign is, we touch a little bit on how to join a campaign there as well but we will go further in depth here.
Joining a campaign on Kwik allows you to share that campaign and all products within that campaign. Since Kwik is all about sharing the products and services that you know and love. Participating in that service, or owning that product should be a crucial part of being able to recommend it. It’s hard to recommend things that you don’t own or have not done. That is why currently in Kwik owning at least 1 product within a campaign will give you the ability to share all products in that campaign.
The brands determine exactly what goes in each campaign. This will allow them to start choosing which products you can share. For example, maybe a brand doesn’t think you can share or talk about their vitamins if you have only bought their clothing. It’s totally up to the brand on what they think is a legitimate word of mouth endorsement. However, something is missing about being able to refer to a product.
Some brands might think that you should be able to recommend them if you just know who they are, so basically, anyone is allowed to share their products. Guess what those brands can participate in Kwik too. The ‘no requirement’s campaigns are on Kwik and will continue to grow. There will be a caveat with that because we can tell that you’re not a verified purchaser of that brand. So when you send out a link you will not have the “Verified Purchaser” on your links. That will let people know that you don’t own the product or have not legitimately used the service. This however will not change the way Kwik works fundamentally. That one indication is the only difference that you will notice, the amount of money you make and how you make it is all the same.
There are situations where maybe you have not bought the product through Kwik but you do own it. We’re working on our integration now where we will be able to check the brand’s customer database to let us know if you have bought the product and if you have we can grant you “Verified Purchaser” status. For now, send proof of purchase along with the brand name and your Kwik Account email to support@kwik.com and they will get you squared away!
Another method that is coming soon to Kwik to gain a link is by applying to the Brand. Some Brands might be particular about who they want to share with and recommend their products to help protect their image. They will get the ability to upload a form that users are required to fill out to gain a link. This method is totally up to the brand and is something they will determine on their end.
You can see that Kwik will provide many different ways to get a link from your favorite brand. While the methods are limited right now they are in development and on our product roadmap!
