hi, I'm Simone →

I built my own income as a creator, before I ever built anything for anyone else.

Velvet Femme Collective is creator partnerships and brand collaborations, run by someone who's actually sat where you're sitting — whether that's a creator staring down a blank content calendar, or a brand trying to find talent they can actually trust.

I'm a creator I'm a brand

that's me, hi

The short version

Not a company that's never made a piece of content in its life.

I started building my own income as a creator back in 2018, long before "Velvet Femme Collective" existed anywhere but my head. I learned this business the way most people do — by living inside it. Figuring out what actually moves the needle, what burns creators out for no reason, and what a good partner should look like when there isn't one around.

I started VFC to be the partner I wish I'd had. Now I work directly with a small, intentional roster of creators, and with brands who want real access to creator talent without the guesswork — handled by someone who understands both sides of the table because I've sat in both chairs.

"I'm not interested in running something big and faceless — I'd rather do a few relationships really well."

Two ways to work with me

Whichever seat you're in, here's what I bring.

Same standards on both sides — clear communication, real strategy, and someone who actually picks up the phone.

For creators

— for the person doing the actual work

A real strategy for growth, not a generic template
Systems and support so you're not doing everything alone
Someone who reviews the numbers with you honestly, good or bad
A partner who's been a creator first, an operator second

See if we're a fit

For brand partners

— for the person who needs this to just work

Direct access to vetted, professionally supported creator talent
One clear point of contact, start to finish
A brand-safe process — no surprises, no scrambling
Someone who understands both the creative and the commercial side

Start a conversation

How it works

No pitch deck. Just a real process.

We talk

A real conversation about where you are and where you actually want to go — not a sales call.

We look at the numbers

An honest read on what's working, what isn't, and why — no fluff.

We build the plan

Tailored to you specifically. Not a copy-paste of someone else's strategy.

We execute, together

I stay hands-on. You'll always know exactly who to call.

What it's like to work together

A few honest notes.

Real feedback from people I've worked with — names kept private, details kept real. (Swap these for direct quotes whenever you're ready.)

"She treats it like a real business, not a side hustle — and she treats me the same way."

— Creator, partnered since 2024

"The most organized, communicative partner we've worked with on the talent side, hands down."

— Brand partner

"I finally stopped guessing. Someone who actually explains the 'why' behind every decision."

— Creator, partnered since 2025
