How to access a Bulletin

Three entry points open the same Bulletin:

Bulletins in the app

In the left sidebar, select Bulletins to see every Bulletin available to you, without waiting for an invitation. It covers the board’s search, filter, and view controls.

Email invitation

In your invitation email, select Take Me There. The button signs you into Fohr first if you weren’t already, and it reads the same for all four Bulletin types. A Bulletin can also send up to two reminders before it closes.

Forwarded link

Access depends on the brand’s privacy setting. A public Bulletin accepts a response from anyone with the link. Only its original recipients can respond to a private one.

How to respond

Responding runs in a single pass, from the briefThe brand's instructions for the work it wants from you. to a confirmation.

Review the brief

This screen previews the briefThe brand's instructions for the work it wants from you. and any deliverableA single piece of content the creator agrees to post, with a platform and format.. Your answers have to account for them.

Select I'm interested

Opens this Bulletin’s questionnaire.

Complete the questionnaire

The brand reviews these answers, and you can’t edit them once you send them.

Questions vary by Bulletin. Expect a mix of short answers, longer written responses, and multiple-choice selections. The screen marks each one Required or optional.

Select Submit your Response

Sends your answers to the brand.

Confirm your details and select Continue

Every Bulletin asks for this before your response reaches the brand.

A lot of Bulletins ship product, so Fohr confirms your address as part of the response rather than reading it from your profile. The screen appears whether or not your profile is already complete.

It asks for your Mailing Address, the demographic details onboarding already collects (Birthday, Gender, and Ethnicity), which collaboration types you’re open to, and a Phone Number. The phone number is optional. See Create your Fohr account for what each of those details is for.

Check that City, State/Region, and Country filled themselves before you continue. They fill from the dropdown suggestion you select, so if they’re still empty, you typed the address instead of selecting it, and Continue waits for them.

  • Viewing your response: You can view your submitted response at any time.
  • Notifications & timeline: You may receive a confirmation email upon submission, followed by an acceptance email if selected. Both depend on how the brand configured the Bulletin. If you’re not selected, you only hear back if the brand sends a rejection message. Fohr sends no automatic notice. Decision timelines vary because Fohr does not set a standard review window.
  • Fixing mistakes: To correct an error (such as an incorrect link), reply directly to the Bulletin invitation email. This connects you with the brand’s account manager or Fohr support.
  • Payment: A Fohr team member or someone from the brand reaches out to you about payment. Reach out to them with any questions about it.

You can update your Mailing Address and other profile details at any time in your profile settings, independently of your submitted response.

Contracts

A brand can send you a contract for a Bulletin. You review and sign it inside the Bulletin.

When a contract is waiting for you, a You have a contract to sign banner appears in the Bulletin. The following table covers the two actions on that banner:

Troubleshooting

The following entries answer the questions creators ask most when they respond to a Bulletin:

You didn't get the Bulletin invitation email #

Three things can keep the email from reaching you. Check your spam or junk folder first. Then open Settings > Personal and make sure you’ve selected Send me bulletin emails, because clearing it stops Bulletin emails. Last, check the address. The invitation goes to the email on the Fohr account the brand sent it to, so if you have more than one Fohr account, check the inbox for each address.

You don’t need the email to respond. In the left sidebar, select Bulletins. A Bulletin the brand sent to this account appears there.

Continue shows "Mailing Address is required" #

This appears when you’ve typed an address without selecting a suggestion from the dropdown. City, State/Region, and Country all auto-fill from that selection and stay empty otherwise, and you can’t edit any of the three directly. Start typing your address again in Mailing Address and select a suggestion from the dropdown to fill all four fields at once.

A forwarded link shows a no-access message #

The brand set that Bulletin to private, so only its original recipients can respond. Creating an account doesn’t change it. Ask whoever forwarded it whether the brand made that Bulletin’s link public.

The Bulletin has already closed #

Every Bulletin closes automatically once its response window ends, and opening an old invitation after that shows a message that the opportunity has ended. In the left sidebar, select Bulletins for other open opportunities.

You haven't heard back after you responded #

Fohr doesn’t send a notice when a brand doesn’t select you. Some brands send a rejection message, and some don’t. No message can mean the brand is still reviewing. To make sure a brand’s message can reach you, open Settings > Personal and select Send me bulletin emails.
