Question 1

1. Are there any influencers on Line App?

Accepted Answer

Not really. Influencers live on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and YouTube. Line is a communication platform used by Thais for messaging, not content discovery. Since it's not built for public content, there aren't influencer profiles to boost brand awareness. However, brands can run ads through Line's broadcasting feature to reach users directly.

Question 2

2. Organic or paid?

Accepted Answer

Both have their place. Organic media costs nothing and spreads naturally, while paid media (influencers, press, PR) accelerates reach. For brand awareness, go paid. For timely news like a restaurant menu launch, organic buzz can do the heavy lifting. The right balance depends on your marketing goals.

Question 3

3. What is a Gencode, Adcode, Paid Partnership?

Accepted Answer

Gencode: A TikTok code that lets brands use influencer videos as Spark Ads. Influencers provide the code so you can leverage their content in your ad placements.

Adcode: The Meta/Facebook version of a code that allows brands to run KOL content as ads on Facebook and Instagram.

Paid Partnership: Legal disclosure required in some regions when influencers are paid by a brand for content. Transparency matters

Question 4

4. What's the difference between macro, micro, and nano influencers—and which should I use?

Accepted Answer

Macro: 100K+ followers, broad reach, higher cost, lower engagement rates.

Micro: 10K-100K followers, niche audiences, authentic connections, better engagement.

Nano: Under 10K followers, hyper-local, highest trust and engagement, budget-friendly.
Your choice depends on goals. Awareness? Go macro. Conversions and trust? Go Micro and nano.

Accepted Answer

Typically 3-6 weeks. Week 1 we focus on strategy and influencer selection. Where in week 2-3 we focus on outreach, negotiations, and contracts.

We usually launch and monitor the following week and we try to rush campaigns if possible but also compromise quality and results.

Question 6

7. What's the difference between gifting products and paid partnerships?

Accepted Answer

Gifting: You send free products hoping for organic posts. No guarantees, no contracts, no control over messaging or timing.

Gifting builds relationships, while paid partnerships drive results. You need to use both strategically.
