FAQ for this niche

How do we keep gift-with-purchase SKUs from cannibalizing?

Gate rewards to $60+ carts and exclude limited-edition bundles from stacking.

Can we highlight before/after content?

Yes—send every new referrer a UGC checklist so approvals stay quick.

What if international orders spike shipping costs?

Cap referrals to domestic markets until fulfillment buffers are in place.

Can we move partners into tiers?

What about FTC disclosures?

Every copy block includes a placeholder for the required disclosure line.

Will this conflict with sales comp?
