Practical field note

Application review comes first

The team reviews the submitted business details and channel-follow requirement. Entries can be pending, eligible, or rejected. The current public form does not provide a live status tracker, so it should not be mistaken for an applicant dashboard.

Use accurate contact details and keep your website accessible. A submission response confirms receipt of that request; it does not confirm a feature or a publication date.

Practical field note

Eligibility is an opportunity, not a reservation

The selection system considers eligible entries and excludes recent winners for a 30-day window. There are no paid slots or payment-based priority. The draw produces a selected entry; it does not allocate a guaranteed turn to every applicant.

Selection is programmatic. Approval is a review stage, and publication is a separate operational stage. A brand being eligible should not be described as already featured.

Practical field note

A selected entry becomes a personalized film

The film uses a snapshot of four public fields: brand name, name, category, and website. Contact email and WhatsApp do not appear in the winner card. The production process creates a video asset for review and publication.

A completed render is not the same as a published social post. To inspect delivery, use an actual post on the official channel, such as those linked in the published archive.

Practical field note

Publication and results are separate

Features are published through the official social channels. There is no guaranteed publication date, channel combination, number of views, leads, or sales. The audience and the receiving business's offer influence what happens after publication.

When a feature is live, keep its link and date. Inspect your own website visits and enquiries around that period, while accounting for other campaigns. Use the measurement scorecard to avoid confusing exposure with customers.

Practical field note

Repeat consideration needs eligibility review

The current selection flow marks the chosen entry as selected and removes it from the active eligible entries. Repeat consideration requires the team to restore eligibility; the recent-winner exclusion still applies. There is no automatic repeat schedule or guaranteed next turn.

This distinction matters: being a verified business and having an active eligible entry are different records. Do not assume an earlier feature means permanent active selection eligibility.

Practical field note

Use the waiting period productively

  • Check that your website opens on a phone.
  • Make your main offer and contact path easy to find.
  • Prepare a clear business introduction for social profiles.
  • Record a baseline of visits and enquiries.
  • Continue your own marketing rather than waiting for a draw.

See the preparation checklist for practical steps.

Questions brands ask

Frequently asked questions.

How long does approval or selection take?

No fixed review, selection, or publication timeline is promised. A completed application is not a reserved feature slot.

Does a rendered video mean the feature is published?

No. Rendering creates an asset. Publication requires an actual post on an official social channel.

Will my brand automatically return to the active pool?

The current flow removes the selected entry from active eligibility. Repeat consideration requires eligibility to be restored by the team and remains subject to the recent-winner exclusion.
