For the Product Review Club, we will always look for the most appropriate reviewers based on the survey questions AND based on whether you have reviewed things in the past. We also look at the quality of your social sharing
If it is a toss up between another member who participates actively on ChickAdvisor with reviews, forums etc and someone who has never reviewed anything on ChickAdvisor, we will always choose the active member. Why? Because the companies that provide products for you to review are counting on your opinions.
Further, your reviews help us grow, so why wouldn't we show extra love to those of you doing your part? Something to keep in mind!
***UPDATE: DECEMBER 2015***
Hi Everyone! I know a lot of you look to this thread for tips and advice and thought it high time I update the original post as there have been changes over the years. Here is what we are looking for when choosing who will be selected for these offers:
1. Are you the right fit for the product? We want to match the product exactly to who it is designed for.
2. Your current reviews on ChickAdvisor. You need to have reviewed at least 5 items on your own from products you already own and love. We are looking at the quality of your reviews. Do you provide helpful, detailed feedback? If you don't like something are you constructive with your criticism?
3. Your social participation. Do you use our hashtags? What is the quality of your social postings? Do people like you and follow you? Our favourite posts are things like Instagram images when you get your products (we love it when you are in them!). Helpful tweets and Facebook posts are also much appreciated. Some of you have even done Youtube videos and blogs. LOVE those!
4. When we send you a product, do you review it? If not we can't choose you again. There are so many of you in our Product Review Club. It's not fair to choose someone who doesn't review over the many others who will.
That's it! I hope it helps and thank you all for your questions and interest in our program!
