Influence agency

Matriochka is an independent influence agency founded in Paris in 2014. We design influence campaigns for B2C and B2B brands, bringing influence, public relations and social media together under one roof. Brands such as NIVEA, Volvo, L'Oréal Paris, Leroy Merlin and Spotify trust us with their voice, in France and across more than ten countries.

What is an influence agency?

We build every campaign with a five-step methodology. First, data: we analyse your market, your audiences and the communities where your brand has something to gain. Then the idea: we turn that reading into a creative concept, the one that makes creators want to take up the subject. Next comes the ecosystem: we choose the right creators and the right platforms, from Instagram to TikTok, from Twitch to YouTube. Then reach: we orchestrate distribution to hit the right audience at the right moment, while driving sales. Finally the KPIs: we measure performance and hand you a clear report your leadership can read.

Our services

Strategy and influence consulting

We build your roadmap: objectives, target audiences, choice of platforms, type of creators, budget. You leave with an actionable plan, not a deck that gathers dust in a drawer.

Influencer campaigns

We run the full campaign: creator sourcing, anti-fake checks and due diligence, negotiation, briefing, production follow-up and reporting. We work with UGC, micro-influencers and high-reach creators alike, depending on your objectives.

Integrated PR and influence

We combine influence and PR within a single campaign when it makes sense. A message carried by both journalists and creators gains credibility and reach. It is one of the reasons we brought these two disciplines together from the agency's first day.

Social media and content creation

We produce and adapt the content that feeds your platforms and extends a campaign's life, from short formats to the reuse of creator content.

The sectors we work in

We work across many fields: beauty, gaming, food, luxury, retail, fashion, health and tech. This range keeps us away from one-size-fits-all recipes. A beauty campaign is not run like a gaming activation, and our teams know the codes of each sector. We have activated Twitch communities around Call of Duty, supported consumer brands such as NIVEA, and worked for food brands such as Panzani.

Since 2014, we have supported more than a hundred brands. Among them: Nivea, Volvo, Instagram, Amazon, Leroy Merlin, Eucerin, Guerlain, L'Oréal Paris, Xbox, Spotify, Kenvue, Panzani, Picard and the L'Oréal Foundation.

Why choose Matriochka

→ We are an independent agency, which gives us the agility to decide quickly and stay free in our recommendations. The agency is led by its two founders, Elodie Monchicourt-Lecuyer and Charlie Trouillebout, who get personally involved with every client. Together they bring more than forty years of experience in communication and digital marketing.

→ We rely on a leading-edge technology and AI stack. These tools feed every stage of our work, from creator sourcing to performance analysis, and let us decide on solid data rather than impressions.

→ Our standards come from the methods of major advertising agencies. We apply the same rigour of framing, production and measurement to influence, without losing its spontaneity. The industry also recognises our creative strength: we design campaigns that creators want to carry and that audiences remember.

→ We have made the fight against fake followers a constant requirement. Before every collaboration, we run thorough due diligence on creators: audience authenticity, real engagement rates, history of their public statements, and fit with your brand's values.

→ Our roots are both French and international. Based in Paris, we operate in more than ten countries through a network of independent consultants across Europe, North and South America and Asia, to support our clients wherever their audiences are.

How much does an influence campaign cost?

The budget depends on your objectives, the number of creators and the platforms you activate. A campaign with a handful of micro-influencers does not cost the same as a national programme with high-reach creators. We detail the price ranges in our dedicated guide: how much an influence campaign costs in 2026.

Frequently asked questions
