The long-form guide for this format is still being written. Everything below is complete and is what the quiz scores against.
Best for
- People with an existing shopping habit in a defined category
- Fast affiliate revenue with very little production
- Anyone naturally expressive on camera
Not ideal for
- Creators uncomfortable being visibly consumerist
- Anyone on a tight budget — the format requires spending
- Building expertise; hauls demonstrate access, not judgement
Five ways to start
- 01Everything from one shop, ranked afterwards
- 02A themed haul with a strict budget cap
- 03Buying only the things your audience recommended
- 04The charity-shop or second-hand version
