Check Out Our Solution for Tracking Loaner Commercial Samples

2 min

Commercial samples are “freebies” where the product sample is given free of cost to customers or other retailers to try out the product before purchasing them.

Just like a test drive, the objective of giving a commercial sample is to sensitize the consumer with the new product and let him or her make an informed decision regarding its purchase.

Commercial Samples Have a High Rate of Success

It is a commonly used method by marketers to promote a product. In fact, commercial samples have 90% success rate in converting to sales. Obviously, for many marketers or brands, this is one of the top marketing strategies. Not only are the consumers more likely to buy the product after testing it out, but are also more likely to recommend the product to others. Free product samples are also sent out to other geographical locations when a company is looking to expand its consumer base.

Participation in international trade fairs and exhibitions also necessitate movement of a considerable quantity of commercial samples. In this case, sending out a large number of commercial samples to different countries or cities require a lot of planning in terms of logistics and asset tracking.
