If you've ever tried product seeding before as a brand, you know exactly how this goes….

It starts with 'okay, let's just send a product to a few creators.'

I've done this. I owned a bunch of brands over the years. I know what happens.

Three weeks later you've got 40 open tabs, a crazy spreadsheet, and an inbox that looks like a war zone.

The worst part? You still can't answer the question that actually matters... is product seeding working?

Product seeding is not 'send product and hope.' It's a system. And if you don't run it like one, it breaks fast.

Find the right creators
not just big creators, not random creators. The right creators. Clean list structure by campaign, persona, niche, and product angle.

Repeatable outreach with follow-up built in
because one email is not a system. Follow-up is the system. Drip sequences so nothing gets lost and no one falls through the cracks.

Built-in cookie-less affiliate tracking
generate affiliate links and track commissions directly in the platform. No separate affiliate app.

Ship and track properly
product seeding management, UGC auto-collection, content rights requests, all in one place.

Find your winners and turn them into repeatable performance
That's the whole game. SARAL gives you the signal to know who actually drives action vs. who just likes free stuff.

AI assist layer for finding similar creators once you know what good looks like… not as a replacement for taste, but as a speed tool. (This one genuinely surprised me 🤯🤯)

I have been advising SARAL for a while now. And here is the big takeaway from the video I recorded on this...

Product seeding is not about sending out more random boxes.

It's about building a system that finds creators, moves them through a process, tracks the work, and surfaces the winners.

That is the real job. And that is why SARAL is so useful.

I made a video on it! Feel free to check it out as I go more into detail!

I walked through the whole workflow on video — discovery, outreach sequences, the relationship pipeline (yes, it is basically a CRM and that is a good thing), inbox management, shipping, and the reporting that actually tells you who to send more product to vs. who to stop spending time on.

Decision-making reporting. Not vanity reporting. The kind that tells you which creators are your winners, which ones should get a bigger opportunity, and which ones to drop.

That is how product seeding turns into an actual channel.

P.S. I love the founder and I love what they are building. If you are doing any product seeding at all, go check SARAL out. Highly recommend. This is a paid sponsorship!
