Ready for Release: For a successful collaboration, any product sent for review must be fully prepared for public release. This means that all pertinent product details, including finalized sales links and confirmed release dates, Pricing are required before the product is shipped to us.
Adherence to Schedule: Our production schedule is a top priority. Delays in product launches, sales, or providing critical information have a direct impact on our content delivery and the quality of our reviews. We will no longer postpone our video productions due to issues on the company's end.
Our Release Timeline: Our team will proceed with the content release based on our established production timeline, upon receipt of the product. We will not delay the publication of our videos, even if your company experiences unexpected issues with product launches or sales.
