Your profile matters more than you think
When you swipe right to apply for a gift on #gifted, your application goes straight to the brand. That means brands are not just looking at your socials. They are reviewing your full #gifted profile to decide if you are the right creator for their campaign.
Your profile is your pitch, your reputation, and your portfolio all in one place. Let’s break down exactly what brands see and how you can use it to your advantage.
Your profile is your first impression Before a brand says yes, they look at who you are and how you present yourself.
Profile picture Choose a clear, high quality photo. Friendly, confident, and on brand. This helps brands instantly connect a face to your content.
Bio Your bio is your chance to tell brands who you are beyond your follower count. Share your vibe, your content style, and what you love to create. Are you all about skincare routines, family life, travel diaries, or aesthetic home content? The more context you give, the easier it is for brands to see the fit.
Areas of Expertise Pick the areas that truly match your content. If you post about your kids and family life, choose parenting. If your content is skincare focused, choose beauty. You can select up to three categories, so choose the ones that best represent you and the content you consistently create.
Your Social Stats
They also see your Instagram links, follower count, and engagement rate. While numbers matter, they are only one part of the story. Brands are looking at the full picture, not just the stats.
HOT TIP: Accurate selection of expertise helps your profile match with the right brand and increase your chances of getting selected.
Reviews build trust with brands Your reviews matter more than you might think.
Brands leave reviews after collaborations, and these reviews contribute to your overall profile rating. This is how brands quickly assess whether you are reliable and professional to work with.
Five star reviews usually come from creators who:
Deliver content on time Create high quality content Communicate clearly and consistently Treat collaborations professionally Lower ratings are often a signal that something went wrong. Missed deadlines, dropped communication, or undelivered content can lead to 1 or two-star reviews. Low reviews can flag your account, affect future collabs, and may put your account at risk of removal. Brands trust creators who are consistent and professional.
The most successful creators on #gifted all have one thing in common. They show up professionally 👏🏼every 👏🏼single 👏🏼time.
Badges like Top Creator and Best Creator help you stand out even more. They signal consistency, professionalism, and a strong track record on #gifted.
Your content is your portfolio Everything you create on #gifted becomes part of your creator portfolio, and brands can scroll through the content you have made for other collaborations.
This is where brands really assess your skill, creativity, and voice. High quality content that shows storytelling, originality, and personality stands out. If your content is mostly simple flat lays of products, it may not fully showcase your creative ability. This can affect matches with higher value gifts, as brands often look for creators who can bring products to life in a way that feels authentic and engaging.
Think of #gifted as your highlight reel. Every piece of content is a chance to show brands what makes you unique and why you are worth working with.
Final takeaway Your profile is not just a formality. It is how brands decide if you are the right creator for their campaign.
Complete your profile, communicate like a pro, and treat every collaboration as an opportunity to level up. When you do, your profile works for you, your reviews stay strong, and more gifts start coming your way.
