Here, you've figured out exactly how you want to partner with a brand, and you’d like them to genuinely consider your idea.

Gilda, an independent fashion designer and vlogger, contacts Dan, Head of Marketing at a beauty brand that consistently promotes female empowerment and entrepreneurship.

Hello [Dan],

I’m [Gilda], a [fashion designer and vlogger]. I mainly post on [Instagram and YouTube]. I’ve been a fan of your [brand] and its [message of female empowerment] for [2 years]. I adore your makeup lines and use your products, like the [eyeliner], in my daily beauty routine.

In a recent vlog that reached [300k views], I [matched my handmade pieces with specific products from the brand]. Considering all the positive responses from viewers, I’d love to share with you an idea for my next video featuring your [products] where I would [create different makeup styles and compose outfits inspired by them].

If you’re interested, I’ll send you the script. I would be thrilled to directly include your brand in this project. You would have a say on [which products I use and the specs you'd like me to mention]. Having your feedback would mean a lot. We could even make it an official partnership!

I’m looking forward to your reply. Attached is my up-to-date media kit with relevant metrics and visuals. 

This message ticks a few boxes: 
- It clearly states what you have in mind without asking too much. 
- It provides a sneak peek at something you haven’t published, showing the brand that you take initiative and value their opinion. 
- It makes it easy for the brand, like they just have to press a button and the partnership is on.
- It puts you forward as an artist/creator who has successful experience in a relevant domain.

Use this template to draft your outreach. Swap out the specific details with your own information, and insert direct links to your social media channels/blog. You're good to go!
