Love it when I get packages in the mail. Especially when they contain something useful and FREE!
Today a package arrived and I couldn’t remember ordering anything. I opened the box and then I remembered the email I had received from Klout about a free “perk” I was eligible for. I remember saying yes I was interested in trying the product, but totally forgot about it till today.
WHAT IS KLOUT
Your probably wondering “What is Klout?” Klout digs deep into social media to understand how people influence each other, so that everyone can discover and be recognized for how they influence the world.
WHAT IS INFLUENCE?
Influence is the ability to drive action. When you share something on social media or in real life and people respond, that’s influence. The more influential you are, the higher your Klout Score.
THE SCORE
The Klout Score measures a person’s overall online influence on a scale of 1 to 100, with 100 being the most influential. Klout’s system analyzes multiple social networks based on your engagement. It is the number in the orange box on your profile. The Klout Score is updated daily. Check out your score history graph on your dashboard to track your score’s progress over the last 90 days.
The average Klout Score is 40. Users with a score of 63 or higher are in the top 5% of all users. My score is 63 so I am thrilled! The best way to increase your score is to create content that people want to share and respond to. For the most accurate score, be sure to connect all of your social networks. The more that others engage with your content such as through retweet, mention, like, comment, etc, the higher your Score will be. Learn more about the Klout Score here: http://klout.com/corp/kscore
KLOUT PERKS
When your score increases or they think you are influencing the right number of people in a certain category, they send you a “perk”. This is the first “perk” I have received. Must say it is nice to receive stuff like this for free and I don’t have to do anything. The card just mentions that if I tell people about getting a “perk” I need to disclose that I was not paid for the advertising.
Perks are exclusive rewards you earn for your influence. Once you are a registered Klout user, you are eligible to receive future Perks depending on your Klout Score, topical influence, location, and other factors. Make sure your age, location, and email is up to date in the settings section to ensure your eligibility for future Perks. Keep an eye on your Perks inbox and email, one might be coming your way soon!
Every day, influencers receive amazing products, discounts and VIP access that is only available to Klout users.
MY FIRST PERK
So what exactly did I receive Three full-size products of Freeman’s VITA-K Professional Products. You can see them in the picture below.
- VITA-K Professional for Age Spots
- VITA-K Professional for Crow’s Feet
- VITA-K Professional for Deep Facial Lines
Plus there were two samples of VITA-K Professional for Dark Circles. (Missed them when taking the picture)
I have not tried them yet, but plan to use them this evening.
Coincidentally, yesterday, I received another email about another “perk”. A $5.00 gift card from McDonald’s. I’m not a huge fan of Mickey D’s but I’m sure my son will enjoy eating for free.
When I joined Klout, I never realized I would get free stuff.

DISLCOSURE
I was given a free product or sample because I’m a Klout influencer. I am under no obligation to receive the sample or talk about this company. I get no additional benefits for talking about the product or company.
