Global Influencer Marketing | Cross-Cultural Storytelling Strategy | Content Strategy & Production | Fandom Activation & Social Amplification
A cross-cultural, multi-platform influencer strategy that transformed A2O MAY’s debut EP launch into a global social moment. By extending a one-night media event into sustained digital storytelling, the campaign amplified cultural resonance and positioned A2O MAY as a new-generation icon in the global C-pop landscape.
EP Launch: Transforming a Media Event into a Global Social Phenomenon
Project Overview
A2O MAY, an all-Chinese girl group, launched their debut EP, "PAPARAZZI ARRIVE," with a high-profile event at The Vermont Hollywood in Los Angeles. The core challenge was to leverage this physical launch event to achieve maximum global visibility and cross-cultural resonance, positioning the group as next-generation icons in the C-Pop space. The campaign needed to bridge the gap between the group's Chinese cultural roots and the diverse, trend-driven Western audience.
Monet Marketing was engaged to execute a comprehensive, multi-platform influencer marketing strategy that would transform the one-night event into a sustained social media narrative, fueling global fandom activation.

Content Execution
Monet Marketing's influencer strategy successfully transformed the A2O MAY EP launch into a viral success, achieving the following outcomes:
-
Cultural Resonance: The storytelling approach successfully highlighted the group's charisma, stage energy, and cultural significance, sparking positive audience response that celebrated the group's visual style and the pride of seeing an all-Chinese girl group entering the U.S. market.
-
Sustained Engagement: User-generated content, including saves and shares, continued well beyond the event week, reflecting a strong long-tail curiosity and solidifying A2O MAY's position as a symbol of C-pop's new global era.
