What if the real “digital shelf” lives inside your social feed? We sat down with Jessica Thorpe, CEO of PartnrUp, to unpack how creators, user-generated video, and smart automation now drive verifiable lift at retailers like Amazon and Walmart, and why that changes how brands plan, fund, and measure growth.We walk through the big shift from top-of-funnel hype to bottom-line impact: creator videos show up where shoppers research, answer the questions brand assets miss, and carry affiliate links that shorten the path to purchase. Jessica breaks down a practical operating system for partnership marketing, streamlining creator discovery, contracting, and syndication, so teams can reuse content across social, retail media, and product pages. The result is a ROM model that stacks value: reach from social distribution, outcome from tracked clicks and sales, and merchandising gains from higher PDP conversion.We also draw a firm line on AI. Automation should handle scale job; shortlisting creators, outreach, briefs, and campaign support, while humans deliver the authentic storytelling that builds trust. You’ll hear data-backed insights on mobile vs desktop buying, how to correlate social traffic with glance views and sales, and why mixing UGC with brand content on product pages delivers the strongest results. Looking ahead, we explore creative variability, personalization across hooks and formats, and how one-to-one creator-audience tools will route shoppers to their preferred retailers without losing attribution.If your team manages influencers in PR, performance in media, and the digital shelf in ecommerce, this conversation lays out how to connect the dots and prove impact where it counts.
