Can I Refute or Dispute a Denial? What Does 'Not Selected' Mean?

Updated Sep 11, 2026

Once a brand declines a proposal (you may see this as "not selected"), the decision is final and onbrand cannot reverse it. The brand reviews submissions based on their current campaign needs, product availability, and creator/event fit.

What you can do:

  • Submit a new proposal with updated content, audience info, or a different event/idea.
  • Apply to other brands — many run sampling programs at any given time.
