About Us
StartSampling, Inc is the leading U.S. online promotional marketing services company focused exclusively on product sampling, research and related media services. During the past 10 years, we have conducted over 2,000 client campaigns, delivering over 150 million sampling experiences. Given our breadth of online experience – from campaign design and management through high-volume fulfillment and rich campaign reporting – marketers and their agencies view StartSampling as the “go to” provider of outsourced e-sampling & fulfillment services.
We have developed a proprietary infrastructure and technology to enable brands to interface with consumers in a uniform and scalable manner, thereby reducing cost to the brand while providing superior service. Our deep relationships with large CPG and retailer companies provide us an unequalled understanding of the requirements necessary to manage a successful sampling program.
StartSampling is the dominant provider of turn-key solutions that “power” the online sampling centers of major retailers, such as Walmart, Sam’s Club, Kroger and CVS. We have managed e-sampling promotional events for premiere clients, such as Procter & Gamble, Johnson & Johnson, Kimberly Clark, Unilever, Kraft Foods and GlaxoSmithKline.
StartSampling’s assets and skill sets uniquely straddle three domains:
- Interactive Promotional Marketing Services: StartSampling creates engaging online experiences for leading CPG brands that drive exceptional levels of traffic, response and conversion.
- Logistics and Fulfillment: StartSampling’s scalable fulfillment infrastructure delivers high levels of consumer experience on the “back-end”.
- Research: StartSampling’s research tools and panel infrastructure deliver high levels of consumer data both as a stand-alone service and as feedback to every e-sampling event we manage.
StartSampling’s core management team has over 75 years of experience in CPG marketing and research services, online marketing technology and promotional marketing fulfillment.
