    From Attention to Commercial Opportunity: The Role of Social Media in Securing Brand Deals

    Drop us a message! 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. Want to be featured on the pod?

    From the UK to the US: How to Adapt Your Brand's Tone and Content for a New Audience

    Drop us a message! Taking a beloved British brand across the Atlantic is no small feat, especially when your brand's identity, heritage, and tone of voice are core to everything you do. In this episode of Social In 10, we sit down with Grace Noice, Social Media Manager at Hotel Chocolat, to explore what it really takes to launch an established brand in a new market. Grace shares the biggest challenges of introducing a heritage brand to a US audience that may have little to no awareness of it, how she balances staying true to Hotel Chocolat's brand identity while adapting content, tone, and cultural references for American consumers, and what she's learned about translating brand storytelling across cultures without losing what makes the brand disctinct. We also explore the role social media plays in building both awareness and emotional connection from day one when entering a new country, and why getting that balance right is critical for long-term brand equity. Plus, Social Media Manager Lucy Torrance from the Giraffe Social team joins us for the news segment, where we tackle one of the most debated topics in marketing: how to effectively balance brand building with performance-driven campaigns, and why the strongest strategies integrate both rather than treating them as separate disciplines. You can contact Grace directly by emailing grace.noice@hotelchocolat.com, as well as follow Hotel Chocolat on Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok at @hotelchocolatusa.  Want to be featured on the pod?
