Why customer sharing can help — gently and naturally
When a customer chooses to share their experience with friends or family on social media, it tends to be taken more seriously than anything posted by a business.
That’s simply because people listen more closely to people they know and trust.
UnboxingBuddy is designed to be present at the moment of product delivery, offering a small thank-you that opens the door to sharing — while always leaving the choice entirely with the client.
The simple difference
When a customer chooses to share their experience in their own words, it naturally reaches people they already have relationships with — friends, family, neighbours, and local contacts.
Because it comes from a personal place, it tends to feel more natural, authentic, and trusted, and often sparks conversation rather than being scrolled past.
When a business shares the same work from its own page, it still has value — but it’s usually seen by fewer people and sits alongside a lot of other business content competing for attention.
It’s the same product, shared in two different ways — and received very differently.
Why customer shares often travel further
Social platforms are built around relationships between people.
When a customer shares their experience in their own words, it’s usually seen because of who they are and the connections they already have — not because anything has been promoted or pushed.
Those posts often invite gentle curiosity and conversation:
“Where did you get that?”
In that way, sharing becomes a visible form of word-of-mouth.
How UnboxingBuddy makes sharing easier
Most people genuinely would be happy to recommend a business that delivered a good product and service.
Often, life simply moves on and the moment passes.
UnboxingBuddy is designed to gently support that intention by offering a simple way to share at a point when appreciation is still fresh.
It does this by:
providing a straightforward QR scan at the end of a session
leading to a calm, friendly sharing page
avoiding logins or anything complicated
There’s no chasing, no awkward follow-ups, and no pressure — just a simple option available if a client chooses to use it.
This Isn’t About Going Viral
UnboxingBuddy isn’t about chasing large audiences or online attention.
It’s about:
being visible locally, in a way that feels appropriate
building trust within existing communities
allowing conversations to happen naturally
Designed for consistency, not chance
Occasional customer sharing can be helpful.
What tends to make a longer-term difference is having a gentle, consistent way for those moments to happen when people feel inclined to share.
UnboxingBuddy supports this by offering the same simple option at the point of each product delivered and unboxed - every customer, every time — without relying on memory, follow-ups, or luck.
That consistency helps your business amd products stay quietly visible over time, in a way that feels steady rather than forced.
