"Every time we have a problem, we need to find a solution or product to solve those problems in daily life. We often ask around to people or even sometimes people share their experiences with us. KOLs and influencers of various types, whether it's an iconic person or a fan page, they all contribute to and affect the perceptions and decisions of consumers."

At CastingAsia, we have a wide range of teams, both in helping to strengthen influencers and creators to attain more followers and to sell and manage sponsor projects together with various product brands. To offer the best support and services for our clients, we are constantly improving our platform and statistical analysis capabilities to offer the best matching influencers and creators for marketers. To discuss one example, CastingAsia manages and supervises DJ Petja YouTube channel and helped increase views from 500,000 to 7 million views per month, from never having had any monetization from YouTube previously.



Regarding returns, CastingAsia is monetizing in two primary ways. The first way is the revenue sharing from platforms such as YouTube, Facebook, etc. Influencers and creators in our network will then also in turn receive a portion of the revenue as agreed. The second part is the revenue earned from sponsors whom CastingAsia is selling to.

This market also still has a high growth rate and potential because consumers are increasingly paying attention to this type of media." Mr. Punsak stated in conclusion.
