Why it worked
The video uses a high-value, altruistic hook ('free menstrual pads') to capture attention, then pivots to a community-focused sponsorship model that feels authentic and non-predatory.
Summary
A creator hands out free boxes of menstrual pads to students on a college campus. The boxes are sponsored by local small businesses, and the creator encourages students to scan the QR codes on the packaging to support those businesses.
