Livom

How Livom turned UGC into a repeat creative pipeline

Livom is a Dutch home & furniture brand running paid ads at scale. We started with one talking-head, found a hook that converted, and have shot 6+ campaigns across talking-head, demo, and before/after formats since. The Dutch + English dual delivery from one shoot is what made the pipeline economics work for them.

  • 6+ Campaigns together
  • 5 Formats tested
  • NL + EN Both languages live
  • Retainer Ongoing partnership

"Benthe gets briefed once and delivers without hand-holding. She thinks like an operator, not a creator, which is why we keep coming back."

Questions

Straight answers

Everything brands ask before briefing. Still have one? Drop a message, I reply within a working day.

What does talking-head UGC mean?

Vertical video where I'm in frame, addressing the camera directly, typically demoing or recommending a product. It's the highest-converting UGC format for paid ads in 2026 because it builds immediate trust without the polish of a TV ad.

Do you work in English and Dutch?

Yes, natively bilingual. I can deliver the same script in EN and NL, or write distinct hooks per language. This is a real advantage for brands launching across UK / NL / DACH from a single shoot.

What usage rights are included?

Every package includes 12-month organic usage. The Step Up and Scaler tiers include paid usage (Meta, TikTok, YouTube). Whitelisting (running ads from my handle) is available as an add-on.

How fast can you turn a brief around?

Standard turnaround is 7 working days from approved brief. Retainer clients get 5-day priority. Same-week emergency turnarounds are possible, message me and we'll see.

Do you only work with NL brands?

No, most of my clients are EU and US brands. I'm based in the Netherlands, but I deliver remote (you ship product, I shoot, you get files in 7 days). NL/EU brands get the bilingual edge.

Will you sign an NDA before seeing the brief?

Of course. Send the NDA when you message, I sign and return within 24h, then we jump on a 30-min strategy call.
