Dasique announced a new chocolate collection (out tomorrow), and Laka has the mini duo sets and a double-sided matte lip stain/ gloss pens!
Has anyone seen them in RFY or AI yet? I only see the via regular Amazon search.
I have seen that Laka posted their mini duo sets on Amazon. I hope they offer them in Vine.
If it does show up in RFY I hope I get the summer, spring, or rosy.
I used to get Laka items often last year.
I think Vine might be doing some updates to RFY or user behavior tracking.
I have been offered 1 lip gloss per night for 2 consecutive nights by a brand I follow on Amazon.
The lip glosses RFY offered were saved to my list and searched for in the search box within the last 2 weeks or so.
Hair items have been showing up in RFY 2 nights in a row (not perfect matches for me, 2 men's wigs, and 1 clip-on ponytail, girls' hair clips), but still in the hair category. I have been searching for leave-in conditioners.
1 face cleaner containing licorice extract. I was searching for toners with licorice extract within the last few days.
So I think the RFY is starting to improve. Do you guys think they did some updates? What have you seen?
Thanks, everyone, for being supportive and giving helpful information and advice when I was worried about metrics. And feeling down about not getting items.
I got a cute pin and 2 hair clip sets! (one 2 clips, the other 4 clips)
It's good to see that RFY is getting better. There were 4 items available before midnight.
This was beauty in it: 1 clip-on ponytail (can't use that color), 2 sets of hair clips, and a light fixture.
The beauty it offered was not the best match (the one set of hair clips is not the nicest color, but great for hair washing/styling, and the other set is very cute and whimsical)
I found the cute pin in AI.
I hope it offers makeup and skincare again soon.
Right now, I'm really grateful to have items to review, and it was good that the hair clips were $0 ETV each.
When I was a gold member, more beauty and brands showed up more consistently after I updated my recommendations. I also had more items in general show up in RFY.
As a silver member, now less beauty has been showing up in my RFY and items in general. If beauty does show up, it is rarely anything I would use. The items offered are not based on my reviews, items, or brands I bought/reviewed before.
Brands I have gotten through Vine before are having new items launch on Amazon, and they have not shown up in my RFY like they used to.
I only get 1 time per hour in RFY at 8 pm - 11 pm (EST), and lately I have been getting skipped. Some nights, 3 items total are offered, and other nights, it is 1 item.
The item matching hasn't been great since I dropped to silver.
Is there any way to influence the algorithm to offer more?
I keep up with updating my recommendations and interacting with brands by searching and adding products to my lists to help with RFY matching.
Do you think our RFY matching gets reset after each evaluation period? If this is the case, how long do you think it takes?
I'm trying to figure out a strategy to make sure I meet my metrics and have a proper buffer this time, so I don't miss gold by 1 point (review-to-order ratio). While making sure only to order things I can/will actually use.
I never really see anything during the daytime; it is mostly appliance parts or other things I cannot use.
On the bright side, I finally got 4 picks last week (total for the week).
