SUBJECT: Partnership Inquiry — Hydroponics Content Sites
|
|
|
|
Hi Michel,
|
|
|
|
I run a network of hydroponics content and education sites, including a PureHydro grow guide platform and a hydro site builder focused on helping new growers get started with the right gear and nutrients. Your products — especially the Alga and Terra lines — consistently come up as top-tier recommendations in our community, and our audience already trusts Plagron as one of the few brands worth paying a premium for. I'd love to explore a content partnership or sponsorship arrangement where we feature Plagron products across our guides, grow diaries, and setup tutorials in exchange for product samples, affiliate terms, or co-branded content. If you're open to it, I can send over traffic numbers, audience demographics, and a few ideas for how Plagron could show up across our properties. Let me know who the right person on your team would be to discuss this further.

Best,

NOTES
|
|
============================================================
|
|
- Michel Coenen is the Marketing Manager — ideal first contact.
|
|
- If no response, escalate to Jan van Seventer (Marketing Strategist) or
|
|
Joey van der Loo (Community Lead/ambassador program).
|
|
- Plagron clearly has an ambassador/community program (Joey's role + their
|
|
"Who talks about us" section on plagron.us/about).
|
|
- They actively sponsor events (Spannabis, MJBizCon) and media (420 Mag).
|
|
- The servicedesk form at plagron.com/en/servicedesk has a "Become a seller"
|
|
subject option — suggests they're open to new commercial relationships.
|
|
- If you have specific domain URLs for your hydro sites, insert them in
|
|
the email body before sending.
