ABOUT ACHATÉ

Achaté is a fast-growing Dutch direct-to-consumer brand that gives people their time back. We design powerful, affordable cleaning machines (steam cleaners, stain cleaners, cordless and robot vacuums). We sell in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and Austria, and in retail.

• Scale partnerships: recruit and activate top creators, content publishers and affiliate networks, and negotiate commission models that reward the best partners

• Drive performance: own the budget, track cost per sale and ROAS, optimise commission tiers and make sure tracking and reporting are airtight

• Turn creator content into growth: work with our paid social and creative team to use the best creator content in ads

• Win the key moments: plan partner activations and early-access campaigns around our peak periods.

• Keep it clean: contracts, usage rights, clear ad disclosure and compliant claims
