Unboxings are product reveals by influencers, and make for high impact quality videos that are most cost-effective and get above average engagement rates. “Our advantage at Chtrbox is that we’re able to analyze past unboxing performance of influencers to determine with whom and how a brand is most likely to see success. With the launch of our influencer gifting service Funbox, we aim to make marketers’ lives easier by getting the right product into the right influencer’s hands, at scale” adds Kajal Mehta, Head of Brand Partnerships at Chtrbox.
Funbox is a full suite influencer gifting and sampling solution covering strategy, data-driven influencer selection by Chtrbox’s proprietary influencer discovery platform, engaging content creation, and performance reporting. Funbox is also available for digital products who may not have considered unboxing before, with creative strategies on how to best showcase the brand and product.
Unboxing as a trend cannot be ignored, with exponential growth in usage in recent years.The best unboxings are done by category experts, who their followers look to for their knowledge and unbiased information. It’s a great, informal way to build a strong rapport with an audience to trust a product, assuming it is in fact a quality offering. Furthermore, Chtrbox recommends unboxings as great cost-effective approach for brands to validate whether popular social media influencers are true product advocates for them, prior to investing more heavily in them as formal brand influencers.
