good review for a good free product?

cecilia yi

If some company launched new products and you as a valued a customer for the company, they hope you could have a try this good product and provide a review about the experience of the product, do you agree?

If said company let me tell my honest oppinion, and not just accept "it is good" then yeah. If they want me to lie then no, stuff that.

No. As a company I would not give out free stuff.

After you used the product, and you think it is great, do you agree?

So, if I was a long time customer, they would send me one of the products to have, for free, so long as I wrote a review on it for them? I think it would be a bad idea, purely because how do you choose who is a suitable, valuable customer? Every customer is a valuable customer, so it wouldn't really work. I think that the person would also potentially be slightly biased in the hope they get more free stuff, or because they are such a "valued" customer they are a fanboy/girl for that company, so they wouldn't be suitable to do this.

your view is right, but i think we should also take the product into consideration, good product should be shared

If you're just a normal customer, then I would say no.

But if you're a tech YouTube/reviewer and you can give them cheap marketing, then yes

LTT get most of there Products to review for free. They have to give many of them back or make a giveaway though. 

 

You will have to look past the fact tat you got it for free though! You can not be afraid of not receiving more products from them if you give it a bad review!

Personally I think giving good reviews on products that clearly aren't that good is mark of fanboyism. For customer its win-win situation since they get free product and keep company happy by saying something is good. But if company then, because of good feedback they get, continues to make bad products they will loose customers fast and lost money in that process.

 

As for reviewers its tricky thing. You can write nice review and smoothen out the worst things and still look like legit thing. But clear fanboyism on bad product etc. will cause reputation faster than anything else. Also for me is writing bad review on decent product just because some little thing doesn't appeal to you.
