Totally Free Product Samples - Why Are Big Companies Giving Their Products Away?

Totally Free Product Samples - Why Are Big Companies Giving Their Products Away?
It may seem impossible to believe but you can get something for nothing! Product samples are constantly given away absolutely free. Companies give away free samples in hopes that when you try their products you'll be hooked and start to make regular purchases. Free trial offers are a good way to try new releases and their tiny travel friendly size also make many free samples great for camping or long trips. Infrequently free samples can complement a present bag or present. Try putting cosmetic and hair care samples into a new purse before wrapping it. Try adding tea, coffee or break samples to a hamper.

What sorts of free samples are you able to get?

you most likely will not find any legitimate offers for free flat screen TVs, free mp3 players or completely free holidays. What you can find are legitimized free sample offers for many useful products that you probably already use. Many of these free samples you can get right thru the mail. Some of the wonderful products you'll be able to find free sample offers for include : breakfast cereals, granola bars, cookies, soda, tea, coffee, dental floss, deodorant, toothpaste, cosmetics and skin care products, pet food, agony relief products and more.
Usually questions are kept short and newsletters can be unsubscribed to. I strongly suggest setting up an appointed email just for use when requesting freebies. If you spend a bit of time browsing a true site you should find some great free samples. Be kind and request only what you'll use.
I like totally free product samples, but then again who does not want to get things they normally buy for free? I became obsessive about getting free product samples when I was in college. Like most college students I was poor, and I mean dust poor. I mean, working 27 hours a week for $6.50 an hour poor. My diet consisted of Ramen Noodles and Totino's Pizza and I would usually wear the same clothes three times before washing them. But living like that can only last so long, so I ultimately decided I needed a solution.

Thank Al Gore for the internet! After around four months of living on my own and suffering the life of a pauper I did a Google search which changed the way I was thinking about Tide and Totinos. But to my constant surprise, I found a number of websites giving the stuff away. They just wanted to send their stuff to my door, and I was more than ready to take it.
Naturally not, actually, companies of that magnitude would potentially survive even the worst economic depression. But they also like getting new customers and inflating their chunk of the market. So by giving away samples they can gain a residual client base that keeps them going strong, even in the event of difficult economic times or aggressive product competition.

Is anything in life truly free? That is the question I asked myself before sending off for my first sample years back. And often the sample would be escorted with a prepaid postcard/survey to fill out. What do I mean? Well, nearly any marketer will tell you, the best form of advertising is always recommendation by friends. So if I convince just one other person to try their item, then I have paid for the sample hundreds, maybe even thousands of times over.
