Thank you for your interest. I’m always open to collaborating with shops, brands or companies to help them on discovering, testing, or sharing products. I can provide:
- Professional product evaluation for brands
- Product gifting for social media posting
- Paid collaborations for brands or stores
To ensure transparency and mutual respect, I’ve outlined below the basic principles follow when it comes to partnerships.
Professional Product Evaluation for Brands
I’m available to receive products purely for professional evaluation purposes, with no obligation to post. This is ideal for brands looking to test product quality, packaging appeal, or market fit before launching a campaign. In such cases:
- No content or promotion is expected
- The product will be reviewed thoughtfully, but no public feedback is guaranteed
- Upon request, I can share private comments or insights, especially in the context of product testing or brand positioning
Please note: professional product evaluation may involve a fee, to be agreed upon depending on the type of analysis requested, the time involved, and the context of the project.
Product Gifting for Social Media Posting
I’m happy to receive products for testing, and for sharing via my social media account. In that case:
- Any content shared will be authentic, personal, and unsponsored
- The brand will not review or edit the content before posting.
- The post will be clearly disclosed as “Gifted” or “PR Product”, in line with transparency and advertising regulations
Please note: receiving a product does not guarantee the creation or publication of content. If I appreciate the product and believe it offers value to my audience, I may choose to feature it voluntarily.
Paid Collaborations for Brands or Stores
If you’re interested in a structured collaboration, with guaranteed content and scheduled delivery, I am open to paid partnerships:
- Available formats include static feed posts, reels, stories or blog post. Content with usage rights for advertising purposes (separately priced).
- In the case of a paid partnership, post will be clearly marked as “Sponsored”, with labels such as #ad or #adv, in compliance with platform rules and advertising regulations.
Please note: all paid collaboration proposals will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The fee may vary based on the format, usage rights, and the complexity of the campaign.
Shipping & customs fees
As I’m based in Italy, all shipments must comply with EU and Italian customs and tax regulations. Therefore:
- All shipping costs must always be covered by the sender.
- For non-EU shipments, any customs duties, VAT, or clearance fees must be fully paid by the sender.
- I recommend shipping under DDP (Delivery Duty Paid) terms to avoid unexpected costs or customs delays.
- I do not accept packages requiring payment on delivery or with extra handling charges.
