smiley360 - Try products for free and share your reviews with your friends via social media!

Smiley360 is a website that gives you the opportunity to try out products for free and in return you spread the word via social media or word of mouth and let all of your friends and family know your experience with the products. The more sharing you do the more products you get to try out. The way the website works can be a bit confusing for first timers so I will try and explain as best I can to get you guys as many missions as possible :)

Yes "missions". This is just the name for the programs where you get to try a new product. Usually you will receive an offer via email to take a survey to see if you qualify for a mission. If you qualify you will get a email and a link to your mission page where you can start your sharing. You will receive your Smiley kit in the mail that contains the free product, a sharing guide, and sometimes coupons, extra information, and additional products to help you complete your mission. Then you try the product and use the Smiley360 sharing tools to tell everyone what you thought!

 During each mission you are awarded "smiles". Smiles are their rewards system. This is what they use to see who is actually following through and sharing their opinions and writing reviews. Most missions have the potential to award 50 smiles total:

• 10 Smiles for sharing via Facebook
• 10 Smiles for sharing via Twitter
• 10 Smiles for Face2Face (more on this below)
• 10 Smiles for ClickThru (more on this below)
• 10 Smiles for Smiley360 Connect (more on this below)

The more smiles you earn the more opportunities to get missions . If you finish a mission and get zero smiles, the less likely you will be chosen for future missions :(

More on Sharing 

• Face2Face - This is basically word of mouth. If you talked to a coworker or a family member about the product you tried you can fill out the form and write about what you talked about and what their reaction was and this counts as part of your sharing and you receive smiles for this. You can submit this form every time you talk to someone new! (up to 10 smiles)
• ClickThru - This is where you will share a link on a website or blog post and earn 1 smile for every person that clicks the link. (up to 10 smiles)
• Smiley360 Connect -  This is another part of their site where members get to voice their opinions on name brands. Adding content to this part of the site gets you smiles.

I recently had the opportunity to get into 2 missions (Oral-B Black 7000 Electric Toothbrush and Veet Infini'Silk Permanent Hair Reduction System), but unfortunately I was not chosen. I'm hoping that with the start of summer that they will have a lot of new programs to offer and I will have a better shot of getting into some missions. Maybe you guys will have better luck ;) To sign up for Smiley360 go HERE and check them out on FACEBOOK. Good luck with your missions!!
