The Social In 10 Podcast
From Attention to Commercial Opportunity: The Role of Social Media in Securing Brand Deals
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Brand partnerships in the creator economy aren't just about follower counts, they're about fit, trust, and long-term credibility. Get it wrong, and you risk the one thing that makes a creator valuable in the first place: their audience's trust.
In this episode of Social In 10, we sit down with Sammy Parker, Brand Partnerships Lead at Calfreezy - one of the UK's largest YouTubers - to pull back the curtain on how brand deals really work at scale.
Sammy shares how social media now plays a central role in securing commercially meaningful partnerships, how he evaluates whether a brand is genuinely the right fit rather than just financially attractive, and how he navigates the challenge of balancing brand objectives with audience trust across content that spans food, sport, and travel.
Plus, Paid Media Manager Ben Gould from the Giraffe Social team joins us to discuss how he tackles a challenge every performance marketer faces: how to approach creative testing for paid ads to improve performance over time. Because in paid social, it's increasingly creative variation that separates campaigns that scale from those that stall.
