Why Companies Give away 1000's of Free Baby Product Samples Every Year

Most people are amazed at the sheer amount of free samples I receive everyday by mail (excluding Sunday, obviously! =D ) The truth is that companies are always looking for ways to get their product out to new customers. Most companies are confident in the quality and design of their product and know that if they can just get you to try their product you will most likely buy it. Not only do customers get a unique opportunity to try before they buy but companies can use these offers to build long lasting meaningful relationships with their customers through a variety of mailing lists as well as through Facebook.

Free baby product samples are slightly different then your everyday shampoo and dish detergent type free samples. Baby companies are often looking to build a much longer relationship with customers. They intend to target the parents as well as the baby. This can result in multi-generation customers and baby product companies are willing to do just about anything to get your attention.

If you have ever been to a baby or parenteral convention you know exactly what I mean. It is nearly impossible to pass by a single booth with out getting bombarded with free samples and coupons as well as pitches from representatives on why their new product is the latest and greatest. While going to these types of conventions will net you a ton of free baby product samples it can also be tiresome. In this article I will explain five steps to getting all kinds of free baby stuff in your mailbox just by using your home computer for free.

Note on Detecting Honest Baby Product Sample Offers

Before filling out my information on any free sample offer form I always check to see what the website reputability is. You can do this easily yourself simply by checking the domain name. If the root of the domain name (the www.website.com/ part) is a company name or product brand that you recognize then good chances are you are at an official brand website. To further check this you can always Google the company name. The first result is nearly always the official website. You can then compare this address with the site you are on.

Often times magazines or distributors (such as Better Homes magazine or Sam's Club store) will offer samples of products they sell in their store. These are also legit offers but if it is not a store you recognize or magazine you should be cautious. You can also check the footer text for more clues on the website's origin. Anyone can put anything in these but most often people will not claim to be associated with big brand companies if they have no claim to be for fear of legal action.

The Most Important Thing to Remember About Free Baby Product Sample Offers

You should never have to pay for a free sample. The whole idea is you are getting the chance to try a product for free. Be wary of offers requiring purchase or shipping as well as lengthy surveys! Most companies will ask you a few product related questions (normally about 3-5) on the free sample order form but anymore then that and I would get a bit worried!

5 Steps to Free Baby Product Samples

For maximum effectiveness you must be willing to commit a few minutes at least every week to filling out address forms online. Once you have filled out a few your computer should start to remember more information and it will go much quicker. The more offers you fill out each day the more samples you will start to receive daily a few weeks down the road. Which brings me to another point. Be patient! Many of the offers you find will be 2-8 weeks delivery time so just because you fill out an offer and it doesn't arrive next week doesn't mean it was a bad offer.

Join mailing lists and Newsletters. The best thing you can do to get the most free baby product samples is to join up with baby companies and start receiving their mailing list newsletters. You can do this by visiting big brand companies website and looking for their mailing sign-up list. I started with the baby formula companies first because I knew I would need a ton of formula and they often sell other products for latter in your babies life. Enfamil, Similac, and Johnson Baby are good places to start.
Find a list of good website resources. There are several great blogs on the internet now days that report solely on all the free sample and free coupon offers there are out there. Free Baby Samples is a great site that reports mostly on free baby product samples but also on other trusted free sample offers from beauty and cleaning product companies as well. Not all blogs report all offers though so having a good bookmark list will make searching much easier. Go to Google and type in "free baby samples by mail" or something similar to find more sites.
Go Social! Many companies are bringing their free product sample offers directly to the customers via social media like Facebook. Not only can companies connect with customers through Facebook but customers can connect with the company once they have received their free product sample and tried it out! Many free sample blogs like Free Baby Samples Facebook have fan pages which also report up to the minute free product sample offers. Adding a few of these to your news feed via the 'Like' button can also help you track down offers.
Check packaging. If you already have a baby or started to purchase items for your new baby you may want to check the packaging on your babies food/clothing/diapers. Many companies print promotional offers and information on joining their news letter right on the packaging. Be sure to also check for hidden coupons =D
Use your free coupons! Once you start getting free samples you will also be getting a ton of coupons depending on which mailing lists you signed up for. Not only do coupons save you money they also help companies track which offers and which customers are using their products. This means more free samples more free coupons for everyone!
