Influencer Marketing

Separating the real from the fake likes.

Partnerships that work, not just look good.

What's inside

Concrete, not flashy.

  • Research and selection of fitting creators

    We don't look for reach, we look for fit. Which creators actually speak to your audience? Who has an engaged community, who just has bought followers? We check via engagement analysis, audience checks and conversation.

  • Briefing, negotiation and contract handling

    All the friction we take off your plate: negotiating terms, writing briefings, setting up contracts, clarifying usage rights. You get one recommendation per creator and just need to approve — no contract ping-pong with management.

  • Content supervision during the campaign

    Creator content isn't a black-box process. We align topics in advance, give feedback in post-production and make sure your brand values stay intact — without forcing the creator into stock-content shape.

  • Evaluation of reach, engagement and real ROI

    Views alone bring you nothing. We measure qualified reach, engagement, click-through, conversion and — for e-commerce — revenue via discount codes or UTM tracking. Clear numbers, no screenshots with vague feedback.

More on the topic.

Why reach alone means nothing

A million followers but twenty comments per post? That's not an influencer, that's wallpaper. We evaluate creator profiles by hard numbers: engagement rate, comment quality, audience location, follower authenticity, content consistency. Only when these five checks turn green does a profile make our shortlist.

The fake-follower industry gets better, but so do we. We work with analytics tools that detect irregular follower growth, bought likes and engagement pods. So you don't end up with creators who look good but deliver nothing.

From briefing to a campaign that holds up

A good briefing is the difference between a campaign that feels real and one that smells like paid promotion. We write briefings that give the creator enough freedom — because authenticity can't be described in brand guidelines — but clearly define your core messages and no-gos.

During the campaign we're the contact for the creator, review drafts before publication and make sure posting times align. After it ends you get a report with all metrics — not just views, but also clicks, conversions and revenue if we work with discount codes or UTM tracking.

Legally sound and GDPR-compliant

Influencer marketing has legal subtleties in Germany that many underestimate. Disclosure obligation, contract form, usage rights, archive obligation — every detail can get expensive with a cease-and-desist. We only work with clean contracts and ensure all posts are correctly labeled as advertising.

For ads use of creator content we obtain separate usage rights — often time- and geo-limited but clearly documented. So the content can run on your ad account without later trouble.

Common questions

Before you ask.

How big do the creators need to be?

Bigger isn't better. We often get more out of two or three micro-influencers (10k–50k followers) than one large account. Engagement rate drops with growing reach — smaller creators often have the stronger community bond.

We had bad experiences with collaborations. Why should it be different now?

Usually it comes down to fit or the briefing. We check carefully whether a creator fits, give a clear but not constraining brief, and consistently measure if it worked.

What does it cost?

Highly dependent on creator size, format, runtime and goal. In the intro call we discuss your requirements and give a realistic estimate — general prices would be unfair.

Can we use the creator content ourselves?

Only if contractually arranged. Standard is publication on the creator's channels. Usage rights for your channels, ads or website are negotiated separately — always its own line item.

Done scrolling?

30 minutes, a calendar slot, zero commitment. As long as you're smarter afterwards.
