🔧 Workflow

Every morning, automatically scrape the latest vertical micro-KOL data (follower count, engagement rate, content tags) from platforms like kolgpt.ai and turingmarket.ai. Use AI models to tier and categorize KOLs, generating cooperative package pricing. Simultaneously capture brand campaign requirements, automatically match corresponding KOLs, and generate personalized collaboration invitations, which are then automatically sent and followed up using Zapier. Every evening, summarize the day's matching success rate and brand feedback, adjust KOL tag weights and package pricing strategies, and output a weekly campaign performance review report.

🛠 Setup Requirements

① Register for enterprise accounts on kolgpt.ai and turingmarket.ai, and obtain KOL data API access; ② Configure a local Python runtime environment, install dependency libraries such as openai, requests, and pandas, and set up the automated matching script; ③ Prepare 10-20 vertical niche brand requirement templates and KOL collaboration package pricing templates. The overall setup period takes about 10-15 days, requiring no professional programming background—simply configure according to the official documentation.

💰 Revenue

① SME brand KOL matching commission (main revenue): Commission per collaboration. With an average campaign amount of 5,000 RMB per deal, 8-10 deals per month, and a 5%-8% commission, this calculates to 2,000-4,000 RMB/month. (Note: Discrepancies with the 28,000-35,000 RMB monthly revenue mentioned elsewhere in the notes remain unspecified regarding exact share); ② High-ticket commissions in top-tier niches: Verticals like maternal & baby, beauty, and fitness can yield over 50,000 RMB in commissions in a single month (anecdotally reported, independently unverified), though specific deal volumes and client numbers are not yet quantified, and their share is unstated; ③ Creator screening SaaS channel rebates: Reselling kolgpt.ai Pro subscriptions (298 RMB/month, listed as a cost in the cards) to brands and settling via channel rebates. Rebate percentages and sales volumes are not publicly disclosed, nor is their proportion of total revenue; ④ Opportunity item - Niche creator database subscription: kolgpt.ai has indexed 50+ million creator profiles covering 120+ countries and regions (public platform data). Individuals can build secondary niche screening databases and charge monthly subscription fees (pricing undisclosed, share also left blank).

💸 Cost

Hard expenses consist of three items: kolgpt.ai Pro version at 298 RMB/month, OpenAI API usage at approximately 150-200 RMB/month, and Zapier automation subscription at 99 RMB/month, totaling around 550-600 RMB/month. Even when upgrading to higher-tier APIs and platform versions, the upper limit is kept under 1,000 RMB/month.

⏱ Time Investment

Invest about 1.5-2 hours daily for data synchronization, matching verification, and direct message follow-ups; invest about 2 hours weekly for performance reviews, package adjustments, and client requirement alignment.

🚀 Getting Started

Step 1: Select 1-2 familiar niche verticals (e.g., smart cat supplies, maternity fashion), complete KOL data authorization on kolgpt.ai, and filter out a sample of 100+ micro-KOLs; Step 2: Connect with 3-5 SMEs with active campaign needs, run the first collaboration using the platform-generated automated matching script, and validate the feasibility of the commission model. Initial startup costs are under 1,000 RMB.
