Case studies

Influencer marketing

Creator partnerships for local and e-commerce brands

I found creators whose audiences matched each brand, handled the outreach and the deal, briefed them on what to make, and then turned their posts into Facebook ads.

UGC marketing

Gifting collaborations with UGC creators

I ran gifting (ex-deal) projects with UGC creators from start to finish.

See how I ran it
  1. Reached out to creators and handled all communication
  2. Wrote clear content guidelines and deliverables for each creator
  3. Checked every piece against the brand's goals and visual style
  4. Got creators' consent so their content could be reused in ads and marketing
  5. Built a library of content the brand could keep using for advertising

Social media analytics

Monthly reporting that explains the numbers

Every month I pull the account's results, compare them with the month before, and write a short read on what changed and why.

Monthly report A
Views
96.7K+6.2%
1-minute views
+103.8%
Engagement
+46.8%

Reach and 3-second views dipped slightly, while people watched longer and interacted more.

Monthly report B
Views
1.5M+7.9%
Reach
358.9K+6.7%
Content interactions
+31.5%

3-second views doubled and ad reach grew 100%, a balanced mix of organic and paid results.
