About Me
I’ve been creating content professionally for years — blogging since 2017, running my YouTube channel since 2020, and working as a UGC creator since 2023. Over that time, I’ve collaborated with a wide range of brands and learned how to deliver content that feels authentic, performs well, and stays brand-safe.
Reens Reviews is a hybrid channel with a unique mix of two worlds:
- In-depth product testing: I regularly review and test new products in a very detailed, transparent way.
- Travel storytelling: I also take my audience on trips and review products in real-life travel situations — including unusual or “new” travel experiences. For example, I’ve covered experiences like the new Acela train in New York or trying out a new luxury coach/bus across Europe.
This combination is what makes the channel stand out: it attracts not only tech and product enthusiasts, but also a strong base of travel-focused viewers — giving brands access to two highly engaged audiences instead of just one.
Selected Brand Collaborations (Examples)
Blog (since 2017): Eurostar, Worx, Dreame, Mova, Huawei
YouTube (since 2020): Segway, Anthbot, Anker, Level8, Tomtoc
UGC (since 2023): Gillette, Thomapyrin, AliExpress, Amazon, Dickies
Work with a creator who builds trust — and converts it into sales
I create long-form YouTube reviews, integrations, and high-performing short-form content for brands that want real attention in the German-speaking market (Germany / Austria / Switzerland).
My audience values honest, detailed testing. That’s why my videos perform differently than typical influencer content: I don’t just showcase a product — I use it, test it, and explain it with all pros and cons, in a fair way for both brand and viewers.
What you get: reliable deliverables, clean communication, and content that can be repurposed across your funnel.
What I offer
1) YouTube Video (In-depth Product Review)
If you want the most thorough format — this is it.
- Extensive reviews: typically 30–70 minutes, depending on the product category
- Real-world testing: not just specs and B-Roll — I show how it performs in real situations
- High credibility: my community trusts my reviews because I’m transparent and detailed
- Balanced & fair: I communicate strengths and weaknesses in a way that protects trust and supports long-term brand value
Best for: products that require explanation, comparison, setup, or long-term use (tech, mobility, home, travel gear, outdoor, etc.).
Example: Robot Lawn Mowers (Robotic Mowers) — Proven Trust & Results
In the robotic mower category, viewers regularly tell me my reviews are among the most reliable and helpful out there — because they’re extremely detailed, calm, and honest. I don’t just “show the product”; I document everything: setup, app experience, real mowing performance, edge cases, weaknesses, and long-term practical takeaways — in a quiet, authentic, and highly trustworthy style that my audience values. This trust translates into measurable impact: in 2025 alone, my robotic mower reviews generated 120+ confirmed sales. The real number is likely significantly higher, because many viewers purchase through channels that can’t be tracked (for example, direct purchases without affiliate attribution), which is common in the German-speaking market.
2) YouTube Placement (Integration up to 5 minutes)
Need a focused brand segment inside an existing video (e.g., travel content)? I offer integrations that feel natural and keep retention strong.
- Up to 5 minutes placement inside a relevant long-form video
- Story-driven integration (not “hard ad reads”)
- I’ve done successful integrations for luggage and backpack brands, among others
- Can include demo shots, feature highlights, and real-use context
Best for: brands that want fast exposure inside strong evergreen content.
3) Shorts / Reels / TikTok (Organic Short-Form)
Short-form is perfect for reach, hooks, and repeatable formats.
- Vertical content for YouTube Shorts / Instagram Reels / TikTok
- Strong performance potential with clear hooks and product-focused storytelling
- I can include proof screenshots on request
- Example highlight: a short about bike accessories that generated 1M+ views
Best for: product discovery, performance creatives, retargeting assets, and attention campaigns.
4) UGC for Ads (Paid Social Creatives)
I also produce short-form content specifically for ads — with a performance mindset.
- UGC-style vertical videos for paid usage (Meta, TikTok, YouTube, etc.)
- Strong focus on: hook, clarity, benefits, problem-solution, and credibility
- Past creatives include ads for brands like Anker and an eSIM brand, each achieving 500K+ views (two examples among many)
Best for: paid campaigns that need fresh creatives that don’t feel like ads.
5) SEO Blog Posts (DACH-focused)
Want to own the search results in German-speaking markets? Blog content helps you build trust long after the campaign ends.
- SEO-optimized blog posts designed to rank and support purchase decisions
- Adds trust, detail, and discoverability beyond the video
- Great as an extension of a YouTube campaign (video + article = stronger funnel)
Best for: evergreen visibility, authority building, and additional conversion touchpoints.
6) Amazon Listing Videos (with Lifetime Usage Rights)
For brands selling on Amazon, I create listing videos that improve clarity and increase conversion confidence.
- Amazon-ready listing video production
- Clear structure: problem → solution → product → benefits → use cases
- Lifetime usage rights available (I’ve delivered this for multiple brands)
Best for: brands that want stronger listings and better conversion through video.
Content Packages (Examples)
If you want a full funnel instead of a single deliverable, I can combine formats into a package.
Popular combinations:
- Long YouTube Review + Shorts Bundle (organic reach + deep trust)
- YouTube Placement + UGC Ads Set (awareness + performance creatives)
- Review + SEO Blog Post (YouTube + Google presence in DACH)
- Amazon Listing Video + UGC Ads (conversion + traffic scaling)
Tell me your goal (awareness, sales, UGC creatives, Amazon growth) — I’ll suggest the best bundle.

FAQ (Optional block)
Do you guarantee views or sales?
No creator can guarantee that — but I do focus heavily on structure, clarity, and trust factors that improve performance.
Do you offer usage rights for ads?
Yes. UGC ads are produced with paid usage in mind. You can also license organic shorts for paid usage.
Can you work with strict brand guidelines?
Yes — as long as the content stays authentic and believable for my audience.
Do you work with affiliate links only (product-for-review deals)?
No — I don’t work on affiliate-only terms.
As a self-employed creator in Germany, I’m required to pay income tax on products provided for review (they’re treated as a taxable benefit). That means a “product exchange” as the only compensation is not a sustainable or fair setup on my side.
For collaborations, I therefore work with fixed rates (and affiliate links can be added as an optional performance layer if it makes sense for the campaign). Thanks for your understanding.
