We’ve recently released our latest ebook “The Power of Influencer Marketing in China” where we looked at how crucial Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) are to successful marketing campaigns in the world’s largest mobile market. China’s KOLs are so important that over 50% of mobile users refer to their recommendations before making a purchase.
Lightricks, a leading photo & video editing app developer famous for creating successful apps like Videoleap and Facetune, decided to leverage the power of KOLs to find success in the Chinese market using one of their newest apps: Facetune2.
