Automated Gifting: Lookbooks

ShopMy's groundbreaking automated gifting feature offers an opportunity to streamline operations, cut expenses, and boost creator engagement, simplifying the process like never before.

When speaking to brands, time and time again we heard the same dilemma, they want to get product into creators’ hands, but don’t have the bandwidth to manually ship items. Today, we’re thrilled to solve this problem with the introduction of ShopMy’s latest innovation, automated gifting via “Lookbooks.” This groundbreaking feature is set to revolutionize influencer gifting, significantly improving the process for both brands and creators.

The Lookbooks Walkthrough

Here's exactly how Lookbooks work to automate the gifting process:

1. Brands Curate a Digital Catalog

Brands can easily select products from their inventory to include in a lookbook.

2. Bulk Outreach

Brands can then share their curated Lookbooks with up to 1000 creators simultaneously, avoiding the manual hassle of one-by-one outreach.

3. Creators Choose the Products They Want

Upon receiving a lookbook, creators can sift through the options and choose what they wish to receive. Everything is in sync with the brand’s catalog, meaning all sizes, styles and stock information are always up to date.

4. Automated Ordering

After selection, ShopMy places a $0 order into the brand's POS system, eliminating any manual steps.

The overall result? Both parties save time and effort. Brands avoid manual outreach and complicated logistics. Creators get to focus on content creation rather than navigating a cumbersome gifting process.

Key Benefits and Features of Lookbooks

How it's Going

Early feedback on the Lookbooks feature has been outstanding. In fact, 50% of accepted Lookbook requests occur in the first 45 minutes, and 25% in the first 10 minutes. This demonstrates its immediate appeal and effectiveness for not only our brands, but also our creators. Lookbooks gives the transparency creators are looking for, and put the power in their hands to promote the products they wish to try.
