Kan Ting transitioned from photography to being a blogger agent because she felt burnt out from photography, having reached her artistic ceiling and losing the motivation to create. She also recognized the potential for higher earnings and scalability in managing multiple bloggers compared to the one-on-one nature of photography.
Kan Ting started her own company, Zhai Xing Ge, after realizing that managing multiple bloggers required more organizational structure and resources. She initially managed everything herself but eventually hired a team to handle business operations and content management as the workload became overwhelming.
Kan Ting's early experiences as a photographer taught her the importance of understanding people and their needs, which translated into her business approach. She leveraged her ability to connect with people and her creative instincts to build a successful MCN, focusing on the commercial value of her interests and the importance of differentiation.
Kan Ting believes that the relationship between personal IP and brand IP should be natural and not forced. She emphasizes that what is important to her may not align with public perception, and she is comfortable with the idea that her personal brand (Kan Ting) and her company brand (Zhai Xing Ge) can coexist without one overshadowing the other.
Kan Ting believes that taking breaks is crucial for entrepreneurs because it allows for internal exploration and personal growth. She experienced burnout from overworking and realized that resting can provide the energy and clarity needed to continue innovating and making sound decisions in business.
Kan Ting advises aspiring entrepreneurs to start without waiting for perfect conditions. She emphasizes the importance of taking the first step and executing ideas quickly, as over-preparation can lead to missed opportunities. She believes that successful people focus on starting rather than overthinking the initial steps.
对 话 摘 星 阁 侃 烃:抓住风口也是一种能力。
“做得好的人从来不会问就是第一步到底要怎么做,就是最重要的就是你要开始嘛,如果你一定要等到什么万事俱备啦,或者说可能要怎么怎么样了再开始,别人早就做了。”
侃烃学生时代搞钱基因就在了,也是国内比较早一批的自由职业者,由摄影师又转型博主经纪人,在朋友的建议下2018年创办摘星阁,2020年成为小红书唯一官方投资的MCN击鼓,2021年营收额过亿,直到此次采访,三个季度不到早已突破过亿流水,团队稳定在30人左右。
