I got an email from a guy - I recognized his name and looked him up in my records - he bought some shaving soap from me a couple of years ago, so yes, he's a customer but not a regular. He claims to have a big Instagram following and he proposed posting product pics and testimonial in exchange for some free product. I used to get these offers fairly often from bloggers but nothing lately...this feels a bit different because he has used my stuff. But I've always figured that if someone liked my soap and wanted to write about it, that's great, but I don't want to appear to bribe someone to do it.
Have you ever gone along with a suggestion like this and has it brought in new business?
