To showcase an experience or product by framing it as a journey with escalating, layered rewards, culminating in a final summary of the total value received for free or at a low cost.

  2. 2

    The Credibility Stamp

  3. 3

    The Gamified First Reward

Transcript

Sometimes I forget not everyone is sponsored by daddy's credit card. So if you've been wanting to try my skincare routine and you can't afford it, today is your lucky day. You guys know how much I love Kiehl's, and if you come to their secret lab pop up, they will literally give you a free six piece sampling kit. If Kiehl says no fans, I'm literally dead because their formulas are bad by science, and I swear they actually deliver results. They bad this guessing game which I obviously worst since I never lose, and I ended up getting this little prize. And then it was time for my complimentary skin analysis. This is the DermaReader Pro, and I try to get my skin health checked every couple of months since my skin concerns are always changing. And then my skin consultant gave me even more free samples to try and implement in my routine. I took some cute pics and ended up getting this travel size mask for completing everything and at this point I basically had a brand new skincare routine for free. I do love a little girl mask. Okay. I love you guys so much. Bye.
