Khoa Phan is a freelance Vine editor. To begin this venture he profiled the top ten subscribed YouTube channels. After researching this he realized a direct correlation between being early adopters and creating a large fan base of subscribers. Each of the top ten began building their platform early and immediately built their brand for their channel.
Because of this research, Phan decided to start his vine account the day that Ebay bought up Vine for $30 million. What makes Khoa Phan extremely interesting is that he currently isn’t in the top ten in terms of Vine subscribers; in spite of this he has been ranked by Mashable as one of the top ten to follow. Khoa Phan takes advantage of his artistic side and uses interesting content to drive traffic to his vines. His specific artistic use is his patented paper stop motion style. This has led to some lucrative product placement deals with big-name companies: Snapple, Livestrong, MTV, (RED), and Peanuts Worldwide.
Personally I will be following Khoa Phan and am curious to see where his Vine freelancing will take him. Will he grow into a great vine empire or has he met the peak of his vine success? Follow Khoa Phan on vine to find out.
I think that Phan’s story sounds very interesting and it seems like he has a lot of potential. I am very excited to see where his vine activity will take him and I am planning on following him as well to see how things play out. Nice Post.
There are a lot of people producing social media content that don’t understand what Phan realized. He got the fact that timing is everything. Starting at the right time and creating quality content from the start are keys to success in this type of endeavor.
I like the Phan decided to be an early adopter, it is a very bold move. I do not normally go on Vine but i will definitely check him out!
