I find the moment people want to weigh in, build content around it, and route the questions it creates — to a profile, a product listing or a conversation.

Creator Partner for a coloured-lens brand, 2023–25, plus two small RedNote accounts of my own. Five jobs: viral content, audience growth, social commerce, creator recruitment and cross-market content.

AViral hookMy own RedNote account · Sept 2024

Took one post past 100K views in 48 hours with a single comment-driving question

0100K+views in the first 48 hours · 175,627 in total

What I did

  • Paired two contrasting looks with one question in the title: “Which one should I send my crush?”
  • Left out the product and any hard CTA, so every answer became a comment — the signal the feed rewards.
  • Replied to keep threads alive; the platform then added traffic support.

Result

175,627 views, 8,721 likes, 716 saves and 269 comments — a 5.53% engagement rate.

Engagement = (likes + saves + comments) ÷ views. 100K+ in the first 48 hours was seen in the creator dashboard at the time.

B0→1 brand accountBrand-partnered lens account · ~12 months

Built a brand-partnered lens account from zero to 8,000+ organic followers in about a year

08K+organic followers · about 12 months · no paid promotion

What I did

  • Positioned the account around everyday try-ons and student life, not product shots.
  • Answered every “which lens is this?” publicly in the comments, so each reply worked for the next viewer too.
  • Pinned the strongest try-ons so new visitors met the best content first.

Result

From zero to 8,000+ organic followers. I returned the account to the seller when the partnership ended.

The account today (shown) includes growth after the hand-back.

Spotted the Halloween cosplay demand early and aimed content at it — orders for the featured SKU roughly tripled that month

~100+~300+monthly orders of one featured lens SKU

What I did

  • My CEP (category entry point): Halloween and cosplay — the moments someone suddenly wants a bold pair of lenses. I got my Halloween looks into their feeds early, so they were there the moment the need appeared.
  • Remembered the cosplay crowd with strong buying intent in the comments of my viral post, and had the creators I manage and myself post cosplay try-ons ahead of Halloween.
  • Answered the most-asked question once, in a pinned author comment naming the exact lens, and pointed it to the in-profile shop list.

Result

About 3× the usual monthly orders for the featured SKU in the Halloween month.

Based on sales shown in my creator dashboard.

ECross-market contentMy Korea-life RedNote account · a few hundred followers · Feb 2023

What I did

  • Spotted what Chinese readers wanted: the chat shorthand Koreans really use, not textbook Korean.
  • Shared it from my time living in Korea.
  • Made it a save-worthy cheat sheet: one abbreviation per line, with the Korean, the reading and the meaning.
  • Answered follow-up questions about studying and working in Korea from Korea.

Result

51,857 views and 3,347 likes; the comments became a Q&A on studying and working in Korea.
