PURPOSE & OVERALL RELEVANCE FOR THE ORGANISATION
Channel content Manager who not only drives impactful content creator collaborations but also connects seeding efforts directly to e-commerce conversion.
Channel content manager will own the full funnel — from platform-native content seeding to traffic diversion into Taobao/Tmall/JD/DY, and from real-time FS/UD optimization to long-term cohort analysis of traffic /consumer. You will be the expert who turns influencer content into a measurable, scalable acquisition engine.
Key Responsibilities
- Multi-Platform KOL Seeding Strategy & E-Commerce Integration
- Design and execute integrated seeding projects across RED, Douyin, and Taobao in-app, ensuring each platform’s content style and user behavior are leveraged to drive qualified traffic to e-commerce stores (Tmall/JD/DY).
- Develop platform-specific diversion tactics: e.g., RED KOL note + 红猫 → Tmall , Douyin KOL short video → product window / live room, Tmall in-app KOL content → direct purchase funnel.
- Map the consumer journey from KOL content exposure to add-to-cart and purchase, identifying friction points and optimization opportunities.
- Platform Tool Proficiency & Paid Amplification
- Own the operational use and strategy for key content media tools, including but not limited to:Red Cat (RED聚光平台/红猫) – manage keyword bidding, note heat boosting, and audience targeting to amplify organic seed content.
- RED FS/UD – plan and execute feed-based promotion to scale high-performing creator posts.
- Taobao Super Short Video (FS)– integrate seed content into Taobao’s video stream, optimize for view-to-purchase conversion, and manage bid strategies.
- Set clear investment allocation across these tools per campaign objective (awareness, traffic, or conversion), and continuously adjust based on real-time performance data.
- Conduct A/B tests on creative formats, targeting packs, and bidding models to improve CPM, CPC, and CVR.
- Performance Analytics & Long-Term Lift Measurement
- Define and track full-funnel KPIs.Up-funnel: KOL View, engagement rate, CPV, search lift on platform; Mid-funnel: click-to-store traffic, add-to-cart rate, product detail page PV; Down-funnel: GMV, ROI, new customer acquisition cost.
- Evaluate post-project long-term effects: Build cohort analysis to measure returning audience performance over 7/30/90 days – repurchase rate, average order value, lifetime value uplift. Use de-duplicated 5R/AIPL models (or similar frameworks) to quantify how seeding contributes to brand equity and future conversion pools.
- Create automated dashboards that consolidate data from platform backends (RED, Douyin, Taobao) and e-commerce GMV systems for weekly reporting and strategic pivots.
- KOL Selection & Content Briefing with Conversion in Mind. KOLs not only on creativity and engagement but also on their historical ability to drive e-commerce traffic (e.g., conversion rate, comment-to-store click ratio).
- Brief creators with dual objectives: produce platform-native, engaging content and embed clear purchase guidance (e.g., search keywords, product tags, live-room hooks).
- Tool Strategy & Budget Optimization
- Build a unified playbook that integrates Red UD, FS, and Super Short Video – specifying when to use each tool, alone or in combination, based on project stage (pre-heat, peak, retargeting).
- Manage monthly KOL seeding +content media budgets, reallocating funds dynamically between platforms/tools based on marginal ROI.
- Run post-mortem analysis on every major campaign to distill learnings into actionable SOPs for tool selection, bid ranges, and audience lookalike modeling.
- Cross-Functional Collaboration
- Partner with Planning , commercial ,performance media teams to ensure seamless landing page experience.
- Work with data analytic, commercial teams to refine attribution models – differentiating direct conversion from assisted conversion and long-term value.
