Why Work With Weekly Retro?

Weekly Retro isn't a general entertainment page.

The audience follows because they specifically love retro gaming, toys, television and 80s/90s nostalgia.

That means relevant products can be introduced naturally within content the audience already enjoys watching.

Sponsored content is designed to feel like Weekly Retro content first and advertising second.

All pricing is a starting guide and may vary depending on campaign requirements, usage rights, exclusivity and the amount of content required.

Yes — I’d add a small page called “PR, Reviews & Sponsorship Policy” and link it from your footer and your Work With Weekly Retro page.

You can pretty much paste this straight into Squarespace:

PR, Reviews & Sponsorship Policy

Weekly Retro is an independent UK-based retro and nostalgia channel covering classic gaming, consoles, toys, TV, films and 80s/90s culture.

I’m happy to work with brands, PR agencies and publishers on product reviews, samples, early access, sponsored content, affiliate campaigns and other collaborations that are relevant to the Weekly Retro audience.

Products supplied for review

Products supplied free of charge for review or consideration will always be disclosed clearly within the relevant content.

Receiving a product does not guarantee positive coverage, and all opinions expressed by Weekly Retro are my own.

Where a product is sent without an agreed content commitment, I cannot guarantee that it will be featured. If specific coverage is required, this should be agreed in advance.

Unless otherwise agreed before the product is sent, review samples are considered non-returnable.

Paid partnerships

Any content that has been paid for or sponsored by a brand will be clearly identified as advertising or a paid partnership.

Sponsored content will still be produced in the usual Weekly Retro style and I will only work with products or services that I believe are relevant to my audience.

Payment does not guarantee a positive review.

Gifted products

Where a product has been supplied free of charge, relevant content will include a clear disclosure such as:

“AD – Product supplied by [Brand] for review.”

This applies even where no payment has been made.

Affiliate links

Some Weekly Retro content may contain affiliate links.

Where affiliate links are used, this will be clearly disclosed. Weekly Retro may receive a small commission if a viewer purchases through one of these links, at no additional cost to the customer.

Embargoes & early access

Weekly Retro is happy to work with embargoed products, review copies and early-access material.

Any agreed embargo dates will be respected and content will not be published before the agreed time.

Editorial control

Weekly Retro retains editorial control over reviews and content unless specific arrangements have been agreed beforehand.

Brands are welcome to provide factual information, product specifications, links and key messaging, but opinions and conclusions remain my own.

Content usage

Brands and PR agencies are welcome to share links to published Weekly Retro content.

Any use of Weekly Retro video, photography or other content in paid advertising, brand websites, marketing campaigns or other commercial material must be agreed separately in advance.
