Encore Performance: (Recorded, Feb 8, 2022) - Our #1 most downloaded episode from Season 1!
What's the future of influencer marketing in China? To insights expert Julien Lapka, successful brands focus on influencer groups rather than KOL powerhouses such as Austin Li. It comes down to uncovering unique insights not often found in databases. Julien is the founder of Inner Chapter, an agency that turns insights into commercial IP. Julien is also co-owner of Revolving Door, a speakeasy behind a small coffee shop located near XinTianDi in Shanghai.
1. Why open a speakeasy, and what's behind the name Revolving Door?
2. How e-commerce has dramatically how you uncover insights
3. Trends in Shanghai should not represent China trends.
4. The 2 Chinas: Those who work hard to survive & the others who can afford to "lie flat."
5. The rise and popularity of Dystopia
6. Insights Mining in 2022: Home Visits Still Work the Best
7. Home Visit Insight War Stories: Turning Tea Leaves into Skin Rejuvenation Post-Surgery Product
8. Data Looks at Past-Behavior - It doesn't predict the future
9. Do Chinese brands have the upper hand? In which categories?
10. Julien's favorite innovative Chinese brand: HeyTea
11. Building brands that will last needs more than KOLs but influencer groups
12. Connecting "spicyness" to behavioral psychographics - spicy as a stress reliever
