One thing separates factories that win brand intros from the ones that sit unseen: reviews. Adding just a few takes five minutes — and every milestone you hit unlocks something real. Here's the ladder, and exactly how to climb it.
A profile with reviews doesn't just look better — it measurably wins more business. The data is lopsided:

Milestones count verified reviews — published after our approval check, so every one carries weight with brands.
On Runsheet, your reviews aren't decoration — they're the engine behind every opportunity.
Brands request intros to factories they trust. A reviewed profile gets chosen first — an empty one gets skipped.
When you bid on a production brief or job, your reviews are your pitch. Proof wins work over a blank slate every time.
Reviewed profiles get priority placement, so you appear ahead of factories brands never scroll far enough to see.
You've already done the hard part — the great work. Now just ask.
Choose brands you did solid work for — they're the most likely to say yes, and their words carry the most weight.
Fill in your details once, copy it, and personalize the client's name before you hit send. Two minutes each.
Your profile lights up, climbs the ladder, and starts pulling intros and brief invitations your way.
Add your factory name and your review link — we'll drop them into the template. Then copy and send.
Pro tip: send it from your personal inbox, not a generic one, and swap in the client's first name. A one-line personal note ("Loved making your spring run") doubles your reply rate. Aim for 5 asks — you'll usually land 2–3 reviews, enough to hit Priority Placement, your first milestone.
