> YouTube influencer marketing with measurable orders: we pick creators by cost per order, place the integration right and track every order via code and link.

## YouTube influencer marketing with measurable orders

60 to 90 seconds in the middle of the video, code and link at the top of the description. We pick YouTube creators by cost per order and measure every integration, even months after upload.

## Booking an integration is easy Making it sell is the hard part

Most brands book YouTube like an ad and evaluate it like an ad. A good video keeps selling months after upload.

## Scaling online stores since 2019 with influencer marketing

Over the past 7 years, we have managed more than €100m in influencer spend and over 20,000 campaigns. That experience goes straight into your first campaigns—helping you find winners sooner and build a profitable channel from the start. It has fuelled our own growth, too: in 2024, the Financial Times and Statista named us Germany’s fastest-growing marketing agency in the FT 1000 ranking.

## When does YouTube influencer marketing make sense for you?

YouTube pays off when a few of these points apply. Whether the channel works for your product, we check beforehand in the growth potential assessment.

## Six brands on YouTube And what the integrations sold

Every card is an integration we booked. The numbers come from the store: orders and revenue through the creator’s code and link.

## The best spot in the video Right after the hook

We set the position of the integration in the contract. Many of our best integrations start between minute 4 and 6, once the audience has settled in.

## Three ways to integrate Depending on what the channel does

An integration usually runs 60 to 90 seconds. How the product gets into the video depends on the channel. What matters is that it fits the topic and people see it in use.

- **In the creator’s everyday life**: The product shows up where the creator really uses it. ROSA GOLD showers at her van on the beach with a Duschbrocken bar. Fits vlogs, travel and routines. The code is mentioned in the video and sits at the top of the description.
- **In a test or unboxing**: The creator unpacks, tries it out and says what stands out. Norio shows his Upway e-bike from the box to the motor. Fits tech and anything people want to see closely before buying. Honest criticism is part of it.
- **In the creator’s own project**: The product becomes part of what the channel does anyway. Klengan shows the MagicHolz dioramas he built. Fits building, crafting and hobby channels. The community sees the result and wants to make it too.

## YouTube influencer marketing from A to Z We take full ownership

From scouting YouTube creators through negotiation, briefing and code tracking to the analysis of every integration. Afterwards we run the best videos as ads.

- **Scouting**: We pick YouTube creators by sales impact, not by subscriber count. We look at views per video relative to subscribers, at watch time and at who has already sold in your category. You get a list with our reasoning for each channel, expected views and target cost per order. You decide, we book.
- **Negotiations & contracts**: We negotiate integration prices based on real benchmarks from more than 20,000 campaigns. We know which CPM is fair on YouTube and when an integration pays off. Length, position in the video, link at the top of the description and pinned comment are all in the contract. We negotiate usage rights for ads at the same time.
- **Briefing**: The briefing sets what has to fit into 60 to 90 seconds: product in hand, one clear benefit, the code mentioned twice. The creator builds it into their topic and says it in their own words. You see the draft before upload.
- **Tracking setup**: Every creator gets their own code and link, set up in IDA and connected to your store. Both sit at the top of the description and in the pinned comment. So you see orders, revenue and cost per order for every integration. Including the orders that still come in months after upload.
- **Analysis & reporting**: YouTube videos keep selling for months. We track every integration for as long as orders come in through the code. The report shows revenue, cost per order and ROAS per creator and video. Plus our recommendation on whom to rebook and whom not.
- **Paid Amplification**: We cut strong integrations into ads, for example as a YouTube ad or as a partnership ad on Instagram. The rights are already in the contract. We launch, test against your current creative and give the winner more budget.

## End the influencer tool chaos Make IDA your *single source of truth*

IDA is our own analytics software. It combines store and platform data to calculate CAC, ROI and CLV for every campaign, down to each creator. Budget decisions follow performance, not gut feel.

IDA brings your data together, updated daily. Every booking recommendation we make is backed by evidence—giving you a solid foundation for profitable, scalable influencer marketing.

- **Every campaign at a glance**: See every booked campaign: creator, status, audience, vertical, launch date, expected views and cost. Once it goes live, conversions, CAC and ROAS appear in the same row.
- **Your performance, day by day**: Monthly spend, conversions, net revenue, cost per new customer, ROAS, sessions and cost per session. Every metric sits beside your target.
- **Performance at creator level**: Analyse individual creators: conversions and sessions over time, by month or day. Basket analysis adds top products, new customer share and order value.
- **Stay in control of your budget**: See what is planned, spent and left. Compare annual average CAC and ROAS with your targets, broken down by platform and month.
- **Attribute every order**: Each creator gets a dedicated discount code and UTM link. Both stay in sync with your store, so orders are attributed to the right campaign.
- **No creator booking without your approval**: Review each proposed creator with the video, expected views, CPM, costs, deliverables and audience. Approve, save as a backup or decline in a click.

- **Down to each creator**: Costs, conversions and revenue for every placement—not just a channel average.
- **Forecast before you spend**: Response rates, verticals and budget recommendations from your potential assessment, before you invest a euro.
- **Your numbers. Your systems.**: Store data, tracking codes and platform reports, all in one place.

## Results that matter Beyond reach

New customers, CAC and revenue from real client campaigns. From a single placement to a channel delivering a fifth of all new customers.

## Also a fit for you

YouTube creators often stream on Twitch too, and good integrations can be extended to Instagram.

## Your questions *Answered*

- **How much does YouTube influencer marketing cost?**: Creators usually charge per integration, and the price depends on expected views. For the stores with the most YouTube integrations we run, costs ranged from about €30 to €55 per 1,000 views. What counts in the end is the cost per order. That’s why we check every booking against your target cost per order beforehand.
- **How do you choose YouTube creators?**: By sales impact, not by subscriber count. We look at how many views a video gets relative to subscribers (10 % or more is good), how long people keep watching, how many views come from non-subscribers and which brands the channel has worked with. On top come the results from our own campaigns with that creator.
- **Integration or dedicated video?**: For the start almost always the integration. 60 to 90 seconds in a video your audience watches anyway costs less and can be compared across several creators. A whole video about the product pays off when a creator has already sold well and the product offers enough for a test or a project.
- **Where in the video should the integration sit?**: Right after the hook, once the topic is set. By the end many viewers have left. We fix the position in the contract, along with code and link in the first lines of the description and in the pinned comment.
- **How long does a YouTube integration keep selling?**: Longer than a post on Instagram or TikTok. Videos keep getting watched through search and recommendations months later. That’s why the code stays active and we keep counting orders as long as they come in.
- **How do you measure success?**: Every creator gets their own discount code and link. IDA brings together the orders from your store, per integration with revenue, new customers, cost per order and ROAS. We show views too, but decisions are made on orders.
- **How does a YouTube integration have to be labelled in Germany?**: Anyone advertising in return for something has to label it clearly as advertising. On YouTube we tick the paid promotion box and show “Werbung” (advertising) during the integration. The basis is the German media authorities’ guide from May 2025. A discount code always turns a product placement into advertising. We check the labelling before every approval.
- **What do you need from us?**: Your target cost per order, a budget for several integrations, access to store data for tracking and an offer for the creator code. You send products to the creators, we handle the rest.
