Finding campaigns
Read a Relish campaign listing properly — what it pays, whether you visit a store or receive a product, and what the campaign requires from you before you apply.
A campaign listing is a brief. Everything you need to decide whether the work is worth your time is on the page — but it is spread across a few sections, and the two things that matter most sit on the sticky card beside the description.
What this is and when to use it
Use this page when you are deciding whether to apply, or when a campaign looks like it might not be open to you.
Do not use it to:
- Apply, or to book the visit after you are approved — that is Applying and booking a visit.
- Understand a status on one of your own applications — that is Application statuses.
Read the two kinds of campaign
Relish runs two formats, and they change everything about the work.
| Format | What you do | Where the product comes from |
|---|---|---|
| Visit | Book a time, go to the brand's location, create your content there | You buy the product in store |
| Product Seeding | Stay home; the brand ships the product to you | The brand ships it, free, after you confirm your address |
A seeding campaign has no location and no visit to book — its card shows Ships to you in place of an address. If a seeding listing interests you, read Product seeding as well.
Read the compensation
Open the Compensation section, headed How creators are compensated. It has up to two numbers, and they are not the same kind of thing:
| Line | What it means |
|---|---|
| Paid budget | Cash the brand puts behind the campaign, in direct campaign compensation. |
| In-kind value | Product, dining, or other non-cash value — worth having, but it is not money. |
Relish does not pay creators and holds no payment details. A paid campaign is settled between you and the brand outside the platform, so agree the amount, the timing, and the method with them before you start.
IMPORTANT — A campaign can be product-only. If a listing shows in-kind value and no paid budget, there is no cash to earn — the value is the product.
Check the requirements before you invest time
The sticky card beside the brief lists the requirements in short form, and the brief below expands them:
- Platforms — which networks the content has to run on, and what kind of post. A campaign can require more than one platform, and some require a post on all of them. Open brief means the brand has not narrowed it.
- Creator fit — the audience size the brand is looking for. Open audience size means there is no follower floor.
- Some campaigns are restricted by age. Open age range means there is no restriction.
- Location and dates — under Visit details / Where and when on a visit campaign. Seeding campaigns replace this with the shipping note.
TIP — If you do not have the required platform connected, the campaign page will not offer Apply Now. Add the platform under Settings → Preferences → Socials first.
Decide whether to apply
- Confirm the format — a visit you cannot travel to is ruled out, however good the pay.
- Check the platforms against the ones you actually post on.
- Check your audience size and age against the requirements.
- Read the compensation and decide whether the two installments are worth the work.
- Read the description and the benefits in full — the brief is what the brand will judge your content against.
Campaigns you cannot apply to
| What you see | What it means |
|---|---|
| No Apply Now button | The campaign is closed, finished, or already decided for you. |
| The page sends you to a profile wizard | You are missing a photo, a market, or a required platform. |
| You have applied | You already have an application on this campaign. |
| Nothing to book after approval | Every bookable slot is full, or the brand has not added locations yet — message the brand from the booking page. |
