Product Gifting
Sending free products to creators with no payment, hoping for organic, authentic coverage.
Product gifting is the practice of sending free products to creators or customers with no guaranteed posting requirement, in the hope of earning organic, authentic coverage. It is a low-cost entry point into influencer marketing: brands seed products to a wide group of relevant creators, and a portion choose to post because they genuinely like the item. Gifting works best for visually appealing, lower-cost goods and for testing creator fit before committing to paid deals. The trade-off is unpredictability, since coverage is voluntary, so gifting suits awareness and discovery rather than guaranteed, scheduled deliverables.
Gigde runs product gifting as a structured seeding program rather than scattershot mailouts. Our Influencer Marketing team selects creators by audience fit and engagement quality, tracks who posts, and graduates top performers into paid brand deals and whitelisting. This builds a pipeline of authentic advocates at low cost while feeding our Social Media Marketing team a steady stream of organic content.
