Matching you and a product
The products or brands you work with are matched to your profile. The more honest your profile the more you'll enjoy the FREE products we offer you.Our Word-of-Mouth campaigns give you the power. When we find a brand that suits your profile we'll ask you to opt-in to the campaign.
a. A YES means we move on.
b. A NO means we will try again later, with another product.
Product
An exciting product package will arrive (on your doorstep) from us. Yes it really is that easy!All you need to do is use the product and share the experience - go on, talk to your friends about it.
Always be honest
Honesty is vital! Successful Word-of-Mouth is based on the existing trust in your relationships.Without honesty you're just a walking (nobody wants to be that) advert. Leave the manipulation to someone else - just keep it real - even if that means sharing stuff that isn't so great.
Free Discount Vouchers
Included in your product pack is a stack of discount vouchers. The brands we work with are (always) very generous so there should be more than enough to go round.These vouchers mean you can keep using that awesome product (you've been test-driving) after its campaign comes to an end. Maybe you'll want to share a few with your friends?
Interact with other Influencers
The most social aspect of being an Influencer is that you're not alone. We provide a great online space where you can interact with other Influencers taking part in the same campaign.
Quick feedback
To finish off a campaign we ask you to share your thoughts, feelings and experiences about the product you've experienced.This is a very important step - It closes out your involvement in the campaign and your honest (and excellent) feedback ensures you remain an important Influencer.

What other Influencers have to say
"I think it is a great thing to be involved in. It was so easy and unstressful being part of the Genacol campaign I wouldn't have any reason not to do it again."
Alistair
"Great concept as I am a person involved in numerous things and have access to a large amount of people in different spheres so a great way of networking a product."
Marcelle
"This company is brilliant! I do ladies nails in a hair salon and I love this because I see so many ladies in a day and now I really have something to talk about. So now I've got the whole salon talking about Genacol and word of mouth. I have ladies buying round two of Genacol. When is your next project?"
Leona
"I was impressed with the efficiency at which things were done. Everything happened exactly as I was told and on time- which isn't always the case."
Jaco
"For me this is one way to advertise and not be in your face. I hate the traditional route this gives you a choice and the opportunity to try something without feeling manipulated into buying. I don't know why more products aren't getting people to try them and give their opinion about them. If you find something you like this route I think you will always use that same product because you feel like you were chosen and not just another sale for their bottom-line."
Shelley
"Keep up the good work - you guys are brilliant."
Rodney
"Good job guys, it's always a pleasure to try new products - especially ones that are beneficial."
Craig
"I think you offer a stunning service, people like to try something before they purchase it. This gives them the opportunity in a trustworthy environment!"
Lalian
"Keep up the good work! I think that you guys are really professional and I would suggest you to anyone requiring your type of service."
Drysdale
"Keep up the good work - you guys are brilliant way to get a brand message across"
Yvette
"Wherever I went people were talking about Genacol, especially at the Pam Golding events and functions. Being part of this gives you something to talk about. It's what we have in common and it's a great corporate ice-breaker and a good cocktail party talking point. People like to feel like they are part of something. In my role people trust me and always ask my advice I was very willing to share my insights about Genacol because I got to experience it first hand. I will also recommend to all my contacts to sign up on your website to be a part of your projects. You will do very well!"
Sue
"This is going to fly! People love to feel the sense that they are in on something. It's exciting to belong to that special crowd it feels like you have a secret part or that you are part of the inner circle. People like to feel like they are with the trends and HaveYouHeard does that. I had friends asking, why didn't they choose me? How do I get involved? It felt good!"
Jenny
"I'm in marketing so I know what works and what doesn't. You can break your back to get new consumers but nothing will ever work as well as personal recommendations. You just might have figured out the non-invasive way of getting people to recommend something to their friends. Very clever!"

Click here to sign up... How will you know which are the right products or services for me?
The products or brands you could work with are directly matched to your profile. If you want to be offered opportunities you'll love, you need to be a 100% honest in your profile. The more we know about you, the better we can match you.I've filled in my profile, is that it?
No ways! We get that you're changing and what you're interested in then may not be what you're interested in now. You can tweak your profile day and night. Our site is super intelligent so it'll pick up on the changes and do what it needs to do.Is it safe to share this information with you?
We're not into information promiscuity. Don't worry, we'd sooner lie down in front of a speeding bus than share your information with anyone. Check out our Privacy Policy here.Are you really just giving me these products for free? What's the catch?
Yes we're really just giving these products to you for free. There is absolutely no cost! All you have to do is talk honestly about your experience, with that product, to your peers. So there's no catch. Have yourself some fun.How much time will it take up?
Absolutley none. We do everything in our power to ensure that your life stays as normal as possible. We send the product directly to your front door and then you live with it, as you would any other product. The only effort, we require from you, is sharing your thoughts, feelings and experiences around the product, with us, when the campaign comes to an end. This is a really important stage for us. It enables us to share vital information with the brand; it also allows us to ensure that you remain an important HaveYouHeard Influencer, one that will continue to have access to amazing products.Will you bench me if I decide not to take part in a campaign?
If you decide not to take part in a campaign there are no hard feelings. We still think you're fabulous and we'll keep looking for other great products to match-make you with.I really love the product! Is it OK if I keep the discount voucher for myself?
Sure. If you loved the product that much who are we to stand in your way. However the brands we work with are always very generous, so you should have enough for yourself and some of your friends.What if I don't like the product at all?
The most important thing to us is that you maintain your integrity. We don't want you to lie. We'd rather you popped over to the campaign page and shared, what you didn't like about the product, with us and the other Influencers involved in your campaign. That way the brand can find out about it and we can respond to you.Why is the feedback important?
First and foremost we want to ensure you are happy. Your feedback allows us to find out what's working and what's not. It gives us the opportunity to sort out issues as they arise. We use your feedback to find out how your experience was and relay this information to the brand. Finally we use it to measure your effectiveness as an Influencer. The more feedback you give the greater your Influencer ranking. Influencers with a higher ranking are used for more campaigns. Unfortunately if you don't share your thoughts we won't always be able to use you.How important is it to be honest when I am telling my friends about products?
We consider honesty vital! Everything is based on the existing trust in your relationships. Without honesty you're just a big walking advert and nobody wants to be that. We're tired of being manipulated and lied to so let's keep it real! Even if what you have to say isn't good we still need you to be honest.If I have problems who can I contact?
You can e-mail us at helpme@haveyouheard.co.za and we will get back to you within 24 hours.How often will I be part of a campaign?
This isn't set in stone and it depends a lot on what brands we're working with and how you match up with these brands. You may be part of 10 campaigns in a year, or only 1.
To improve your chances of being included in more campaigns we suggest that you firstly give us as much information, about you, as possible. And secondly, when your are involved in a campaign you'll stand a much better chance of being included in another by supplying us with lots of campaign related feedback.Is the campaign feedback page important?
Yes! Sorry we got a little over excited there. The campaign feedback page is one of the most important elements of being a HaveYouHeard Influencer. It's the place where we get to see what you think about the products you're trying out. Plus you'll find like-minded people to share your opinions with. You will also be able to see what everyone else has to say. How much fun!There's something I'd like to say but I'm worried about the backlash.
You can always email us anything that you're too uncomfortable to share online. However your campaign page is a trusted space and we monitor it continuously to ensure that it stays that way. The most important thing is that you are honest. If you are honest and fair we want to hear from you - all the great, all the good and all the bad. There are sometimes people who cause trouble by being unfairly critical. You don't need to worry about this or these people; we review each issue that arises and deal with it on its individual merits.What if I want to stop?
No problem, you can always close your account. We would however recommend staying alive, you never know what wonderful brands may want to connect with you!I'm hopelessly in love with HaveYouHeard. How can I get their attention?
Well we're big fans of email but if you want it to be special then it'll have to be a conventional love letter; something handmade and sent via snail mail always spins our windmills.
