Fans of celebrities get excited by free merch. It’s good self promotion.

So. How can someone who is not a fan of that artist gives it to someone else who is?

:?

So now you’re not talking about an artist giving stuff away and wondering why they do it, but how can some 3rd party person give it to a fan :?

If that’s what you’re asking, here’s the 2 step process that comes to mind:

1. Buy merch.
2. Gift it to the fan.
