How to Centrally Manage Sample Applications and Shipments?

To help you efficiently manage influencer sample applications and shipping processes while ensuring real-time synchronization of collaboration information, Influx’s 【Sample application】 feature has been fully optimized to streamline end-to-end management—from outreach and review to fulfillment—empowering teams to enhance operational efficiency and refine the influencer collaboration experience.

Need to send a sample?

In Influx’s 【Campaign > Campaign management】, once an influencer’s status progresses to 【Reply to creators】, you can 【move on to the next step】 based on sample shipping needs:

• Select 【Yes】, and the influencer’s status will move to 【Sample application review pending】. The next step requires you to go to the Sample Application page to review the influencer’s sample request.

• Select 【No】, and the influencer’s status will move to【Content pending】. You can continue discussing content production details with the influencer in the Message Center.

How to review sample applications?

Navigate to 【Invitation > Sample application】, where you can centrally manage all sample requests from both open and targeted invitation campaigns.

This module allows administrators to filter by Shop, Creator name, Sample application status and other dimensions, view complete data and track team member operational records to comprehensively monitor collaboration efficiency and performance.

1. Approve an Influencer’s Sample Application

1

Clicking 【Approve】 indicates approval of the influencer’s sample request.

2

You can choose to add the influencer to a specific campaign to track their status progression, or opt not to add them to any campaign and directly monitor sample delivery status in the Sample Application page.

3

After approving the sample application, the influencer’s status in Influx will automatically update to【Awaiting shipment】 and synchronize with the TikTok Shop Affiliate Center. You may then proceed to arrange sample shipments.

4

When the TikTok Shop Affiliate Center detects that you have shipped the sample, the influencer’s status in Influx will automatically sync to 【Shipping】.

5

Once the sample is delivered, the influencer’s status will automatically update to 【Content pending】, remaining fully synchronized with the TikTok Shop Affiliate Center.

2. Reject an Influencer’s Sample Application

1

Clicking 【Reject】 indicates that you have declined the influencer’s sample request.

2

Select the reason for rejecting the sample application.

3

The influencer’s status will automatically update to 【Reject】 and synchronize with the TikTok Shop Affiliate Center to notify the influencer.

If an influencer has multiple sample applications within the same targeted invitation campaign, the corresponding application statuses and fulfillment progress will be displayed separately, ensuring clear tracking of sample progress and avoiding confusion or omissions.

🎉Conclusion

You have now completed the sample review process! Next, remember to proceed to the TikTok Shop Affiliate Center to arrange sample shipment and communicate content production details with the influencer!
