Shipping & deliverables

Between signing and getting paid, there are two things to handle: the sample (if the collaboration involves one) and the content itself.

Product samples

A collaboration either involves a sample or it doesn't — that's agreed during negotiation. When it does, one of two things happens:

• We ship it to you. You receive the product, and the shipment is tracked end to end.
• You buy it and get reimbursed. If shipping isn't practical, you purchase the product yourself, and the brand reimburses you from the escrowed budget once the purchase is confirmed.

Either way the steps are tracked so nothing falls through the cracks, and the persona keeps you posted.

Producing the content

You create the content per the brief you agreed to. When it's ready:

1. You deliver the content for review.
2. It's reviewed against the brief — deliverable, quality, and compliance.
3. Once approved, it goes live on the agreed schedule.
4. On verified publication, your payment is released from escrow. → Getting paid

What happens if something needs changes

Review feedback comes back to you through the persona with clear, actionable notes. Revisions are part of the process — the agreement is about the outcome, not about passing review by luck.
