Practical field note
Four routes worth investigating
| Route | What to offer | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| Community spotlight | A useful local or industry story | Membership conditions and audience relevance |
| Partner feature | A demonstration, collaboration, or shared resource | Mutual value and any exchange required |
| Editorial coverage | A timely story, first-hand insight, or original evidence | Editorial independence; coverage is not assured |
| Free social promotion pool | Accurate business details and eligibility checks | Selection rules, publication channels, and limits |
These are routes to explore, not a list of guaranteed placements. A publication may decline a pitch; a community may limit submissions; a promotion pool may not select your business.
Practical field note
Choose relevance before audience size
Write down who you want to reach: local diners, buyers of a particular product, or founders who need your service. Inspect several recent posts from a prospective channel. Do they address that audience? Is the business information accurate? Can viewers find the featured business?
A large audience with little interest in your offer may be less useful than a smaller, closely matched one. Public view counts cannot tell you how many qualified people visited or bought.
Practical field note
Check the conditions before you submit
- Is applying free, and is any later purchase required?
- Is selection discretionary or guaranteed?
- What information will be public?
- Which channel publishes the feature?
- Is there a confirmed date, or is timing unspecified?
- Can you inspect actual published examples?
Keep the original offer and publication link so you can compare what was explained with what was delivered. Do not treat an unsolicited payment request as part of a free program without checking the official website.

How Feature My Brand fits
Follow at least one official channel before applying: YouTube, Instagram, or Facebook. Entry is free, and there are no paid priority slots.
Submit your business through the official application page. Applications are reviewed; approved entries can be considered for selection. Selected brands can receive a personalized social feature. There is no promise of selection, publication timing, reach, enquiries, or sales.
See the published feature archive and application walkthrough before deciding whether the opportunity suits you.
Practical field note
Make the feature useful once attention arrives
A bakery seeking nearby customers could prepare a page with its location, opening hours, menu, and ordering link. The feature introduces the business; the page answers the questions needed to visit or order.
Use a working website, a clear offer, and a next step that you can respond to. Record your starting traffic and enquiries before publication. That makes later changes easier to interpret.
Questions brands ask
Frequently asked questions.
Does free application guarantee a feature?
No. Application and selection are separate. At Feature My Brand, approval makes an entry eligible for consideration; it does not promise selection or outcomes.
Do I need to pay to apply to Feature My Brand?
No. Following at least one official channel and completing the application requirements are necessary, but there is no application fee or paid priority.
Where can I see published examples?
The Featured Brands archive links to verified public posts on the official YouTube channel. The official Instagram and Facebook profiles are also linked from the website.
