A Deep Dive into a Successful Partner Case Study

The Problem

Creator marketing returns were great and an express-train to brand equity - however the team found themselves investing countless hours, at times even days, to find and connect with creators that fit their brand - and even after all this work, some of the results were mediocre.

The Passionfroot match

This was until Jonathan, Head of Brand at Durable, came across Passionfroot when collaborating with You Need A Robot run (part of Latecheckout). After booking a sponsorship at the click of a button - Jonathan signed up to Passionfroot for Partners to discover more.
