LIFE UPDATE: after ~4 years of relentlessly building @Radarblock, I joined @KaitoAI as Head of Marketing a few months ago. Took me a while to digest it and shoot this (hah)
Kaito is the only firm that built functional attribution rails for Web3 alongside a real social graph. That combo sits at the center of every data-led campaign now.
A little lore: I came across Kaito 2 years ago on a call with @Tianqi_Wang5 and my first thought was "is there a way I can invest?".
Life has its own way of playing its hand. @Punk9277 and team have my utmost respect for shipping non-stop every quarter, and with the bull arriving my conviction in the creator market thesis is stronger than ever. More on that soon.
If you're a creator in the Kaito ecosystem, I want to sit down with each of you and figure out how we get you more. DMs open.
And if you're a brand trying to maximize influence, I'm the guy to talk to.
ps @jiwoo_jun, @St3cu, @cryptexbt are the kindest, so psyched to be building with 'em.
so? gKaito.

how to hire your unicorn growth person:
1) stop looking for clouted people
the growth person at Kalshi or Cursor or Granola doesn't want to work for you. no matter how much you pay.
2) get into distribution yourself
you'll never find your "unicorn" if you don't have refined taste. at the very least, hire a few creators and try training them.
3) promote internally
instead of poaching, take your top creators and make them managers. take your top creator managers and have them manage spend.
4) prioritize grit over resume
growth is all about the annoying things. following up on DMs, negotiating with 1,000 influencers. very few people have the grit to do this day in and out.
5) scale pay
when you find this diamond in the rough, don't rely on market inefficiencies. pay them A LOT. even if they're your "diamond in the rough", they'll quickly start getting offers from startups.
no matter what, ensure they share the upside for all their work.

Found a campaign on Kaito Studio but unsure what to do next?
Here’s how each mode works.
After serving 200+ brands and paying out more than $115M to creators, we learned that creator campaigns aren't one-size-fits-all.
That's why we now run three campaign modes from one command center.
