Try new products for free!

I love being able to try new things... most especially when they are free!  Manufacturers will often use marketing companies to help them get the word out to consumers when new products come out or when they want to give the popularity of their products a little boost.  These companies are looking for feedback and word of mouth marketing from consumers.  They want you to try and love their stuff, buy it, and get others to do the same!

To give you an idea of what I'm talking about, here is a sampling of some of the products our family and friends have had the opportunity to try through these programs:

Infant/Children's Advil

Bic Markers

Bic Razors

Knorr Homestyle Chicken Stock

Energy Drinks

Diapers

Frozen Fish

Baby Wash

Fresh Express Salad
Green Mountain Fair Trade Coffee

Kleenex Hand Towels

Pull-Ups

Legos

Coffee Creamer

Glade Air Fresheners (you can read about my Bzz Campaign here)
Candy

Poland Spring Water/Delivery Service
Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Face Care Line

I am a member of several different programs and if you are not signed up for these, I highly recommend it!  Some require a little more follow through than others.  All of them select only a portion of their applicants for each trial so don't be disappointed if you don't get chosen.  Keep trying and participating how you can.  It's fun and a great opportunity to try new things for free.  You can read about the ins and outs of each program on their websites but if you have more questions, let me know!  I'm also happy to email you referral links if you are interested.  Most companies reward you for inviting your friends to join the fun as well!
