Pros and cons

Pros

  • Focused on a single platform: UUUM manages YouTube, and the service list in Influencer marketing, Influencer management (MCN) and Influencer collaboration is built around it rather than spread across networks.
  • The commission is a share of YouTube earnings before tax, capped at a fixed amount each month, and it applies only in months when earnings clear a stated threshold.
  • Breadth beyond channel work: Influencer marketing, Influencer management (MCN) and Influencer collaboration covers influencer collaboration, content planning and video production, IP production, channel sponsorship, regional promotion and municipal partnerships, and game development and publishing.
  • Support runs on email and phone, and 48.3% of brands in the agency ranking also list phone support, so reaching a person is the common setup here.
  • A named, established counterparty: UUUM (Uumu) Co., Ltd. was founded 2013 and is based in Japan.

Cons

  • UUUM manages YouTube only, so a creator earning from another network has no channel relationship with the agency.
  • Support runs on email and phone only, while 24.8% of brands in the agency ranking run a help centre, so answers arrive by contact rather than on demand.
  • The commission comes out of earnings: a share of YouTube earnings before tax, capped at a fixed amount each month and charged only in months when earnings clear a stated threshold.
  • UUUM is an agency rather than tooling: Infloww offers creator CRM for agencies, messaging and chat tools and AI chat assistant for teams running creators in house, a different line of work from Influencer marketing, Influencer management (MCN) and Influencer collaboration.

Who it suits

  • Creators whose income comes from YouTube and who want management, production and monetisation handled by the same agency.
  • Brands and regional bodies looking for a partner with influencer marketing, collaboration, sponsorship and business co-creation in Influencer marketing, Influencer management (MCN) and Influencer collaboration.
  • Creators who prefer a named company, UUUM (Uumu) Co., Ltd., founded 2013, with support by email and phone.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Creators earning from networks beyond YouTube: 2btube Latinoamerica lists monetisation, advertising and paid media work across several networks in social media analysis and audit, social media management and influencer marketing agency.
  • Teams that want software instead of an agency: Infloww offers creator CRM for agencies, messaging and chat tools and AI chat assistant, from creator CRM and analytics to tracking links and shift scheduling.
  • Creators who want a paid store front with chatting and payment handling: AROA Agency lists OnlyFans management, chatting services and traffic and promotion services.

Services

UUUM manages YouTube, and that single platform shapes the rest of the offer. Influencer marketing, Influencer management (MCN) and Influencer collaboration runs the full arc that an agency, a production desk and a business team would otherwise cover between them: influencer marketing, influencer management, influencer collaboration, content planning and video production, event and business co-creation, SNS account operation services, a creator monetisation platform, IP production, channel sponsorship, regional promotion and municipal partnerships, game development and publishing, and an official goods store. For a creator, the UUUM ONE monetisation platform is the piece that touches the channel itself, while the sponsorship, regional and game lines are aimed at brands and partners. The commercial terms are a share of YouTube earnings before tax, capped at a fixed amount each month, and charged only in months when YouTube earnings clear a stated threshold. Because the charge is tied to earnings, the fee appears in months when a channel clears that threshold and stays out of the way in months that do not.

Who runs it

UUUM is run by UUUM (Uumu) Co., Ltd., founded 2013 and based in Japan, so the counterparty on the contract is a named company rather than a marketplace listing. Support runs on email and phone. That puts UUUM with the larger group in the agency ranking: 48.3% of brands there also list phone support, while 24.8% run a help centre, so the listed contact routes are personal but narrow. Across the wider site, 54.2% of brands run a help centre, and that is the route UUUM's support channels do not include. In practice that shapes what a creator can expect: a question goes to a person by email or phone, and getting a written answer on your own schedule is a request rather than a default.

Frequently asked questions

What does UUUM charge a creator?+

UUUM takes a share of your YouTube earnings before tax, capped at a fixed amount each month, and the charge applies only in months when earnings clear a stated threshold. The fee is tied to what the channel earns, so it grows with a strong month and stops in a month below the threshold. The arrangement covers YouTube.

Which platforms does UUUM manage?+

UUUM manages YouTube. That single platform is the limit of the channel relationship, and the rest of the work in Influencer marketing, Influencer management (MCN) and Influencer collaboration builds on top of it rather than sitting alongside other networks. A creator who earns from several platforms is handling part of their channel outside the agency.

Who runs UUUM and where is it based?+

UUUM is operated by UUUM (Uumu) Co., Ltd., founded 2013 and based in Japan. Its service list reads like a full service agency rather than a single-platform manager, spanning influencer marketing and management, content planning and video production, IP production and business co-creation, all under Influencer marketing, Influencer management (MCN) and Influencer collaboration. Support for the arrangement runs on email and phone.

How do you contact UUUM?+

Support runs on email and phone. In the agency ranking, 48.3% of brands also list phone support, while 24.8% run a help centre, so UUUM sits with the group that handles contact by person. Across the wider site, 54.2% of brands run a help centre, a route UUUM's support channels do not include.

What can UUUM do beyond channel management?+

Influencer marketing, Influencer management (MCN) and Influencer collaboration lists the full range, from influencer collaboration and SNS account operation through regional promotion and municipal partnerships to game development and publishing and an official goods store. The UUUM ONE creator monetisation platform is part of that list, and it is the piece aimed at creators earning from their own channel.

Who is UUUM suited to?+

It fits creators whose income comes from YouTube and who want management, production and monetisation handled by the same agency, with the work listed under Influencer marketing, Influencer management (MCN) and Influencer collaboration. It suits a team less well when software is what is wanted, since Infloww offers creator CRM for agencies, messaging and chat tools and AI chat assistant for groups running creators in house.

How does UUUM compare with other agencies on coverage?+

UUUM manages YouTube, while 2btube Latinoamerica lists a wider spread of work in social media analysis and audit, social media management and influencer marketing agency, covering monetisation on several networks plus advertising, paid media and production. AROA Agency takes a different route, with OnlyFans management, chatting services and traffic and promotion services aimed at store management, chatting, tax and payment handling.
