《I've Been Doing Sponsored Posts for 6 Years, I Don't Accept Everything, But I'm Really Easy to Talk To.》📣|野口小波's Sponsored Post Collaboration Declaration
After six years of sponsored posts, I've accumulated about 290 collaborations.
Now the question I get asked most often isn't "How much do you charge?" but——
"Xiaobo, do you accept everything?"
The answer is: No. 😂
But I'm not the kind of KOL who acts superior and puts on airs the moment a brand comes along.
I'm the kind of person who can sit down with you and say: "Who exactly are you trying to sell this product to? Should we try a different approach to the writing?"
My name is 野口小波. I'm a KOL, copywriter, photographer/lifestyle creator, and someone who loves to travel around and experience new things whenever I see them.
My collaboration style is actually very simple:
Authentic, down-to-earth, story-driven, and never pretending to be overly professional.
I don't like writing sponsored posts that read like product manuals.
"This product uses ○○ technology and has ○○ benefits……"
By the third line, even I fall asleep.
(´,,•ω•,,)💤
I prefer to place products within real life.
For example, with a store, I'll go eat there, look around, and feel the atmosphere;
with a product, I'll actually use it;
with a service, I'll experience it from a consumer's perspective.
Then I'll write about what I truly saw.
This is the style I've maintained throughout my six years of doing sponsored posts.

✦ My Principle: I Can Do Sponsored Posts, But I Won't Lie to People
I can help brands with exposure, write copy, take photos, shoot videos, and also collaborate on group buys or revenue sharing.
But I don't like hyping up ordinary things into miracles just for money.
If it's delicious, I'll say it's delicious.
If it's useful, I'll say it's useful.
If it has special features, I'll write about those features.
If there are areas that need improvement, I'll try to communicate in a responsible way that doesn't harm the brand.
Because my name will be attached to the article.
Ads can be taken down, but credibility isn't something you can just remove.
This is what matters most to me after six years.

✧ My Style: Not Influencer Voice, But "Xiaobo Voice"
My writing is a little cute, a little naturally silly, with a touch of everyday life, and occasionally I'll even roast myself.
I don't go for the "unattainable goddess" route.
It's more like:
"Someone who actually goes out to eat, stroll around, take photos, lives life in a bit of a mess, but still tries hard to get things done."
So my sponsored posts aren't necessarily glamorous.
But I hope they have a human touch.
Sometimes a single line like "Hey, I actually used this";
carries more weight than ten over-the-top adjectives.

❌ My Collaboration Red Lines, Let's Be Clear Up Front
I can accommodate revisions, but unlimited revisions are not okay.
I can discuss direction, but if the requirements aren't clearly stated from the beginning and then suddenly added at the end:
"Add three more photos."
"Shoot another video."
"Make an AI video too."
"Revise it ten more times."
"Can you deliver it tonight?"
Xiaobo's soul will start leaving her body.
(╥﹏╥)
So if there are many requirements, I'll calculate separately:
✓ Copywriting fee
✓ Photography fee
✓ Video fee
✓ AI video production fee
✓ Additional revisions/special requests
It's not that I can't do it, but the workload needs to be clearly communicated.
Also, I don't like deceiving consumers, making exaggerated claims, or being asked to write content about things I haven't actually experienced.
These are all my collaboration red lines.

♡ But I'm Actually Really Easygoing
Many people see how direct I am and might think I'm difficult to work with.
Actually, I'm not.
In person, I'm often naturally silly in a funny way. 🤣
If you're willing to clearly explain your needs, I'm usually very easy to communicate with.
If your budget is limited, you can just say so.
If you're a small shop just starting out, you can also come ask.
Not only big brands are qualified to work with KOLs.
I also really enjoy getting to know small brands, small businesses, private sales platforms, and local stores.
Because I'm a creator myself, I know how difficult it is for someone to build something from scratch.

📩 All Types of Collaborations Welcome
Big brands, small brands, stores, restaurants, fast food, products, services, overseas brands—I welcome all conversations.
I also run a fast-food related column,
so——
🍔 Fast food restaurants welcome to host!
🍟 Friendly fast food stores welcome to collaborate!
I can travel anywhere in Taiwan, and brands outside Taiwan are also welcome to send me proposals.
Don't know who I am?
It's simple.
Google "野口小波".
Or just ask your Siri:
"Hey Siri, who is 野口小波?"
If it actually answers, I'll be thrilled. 🤣
📩 Collaboration Contact LINE: aahhsyl520
Six years, 290 collaborations—for me, it's not a number to show off.
It's a reminder:
Since someone is willing to entrust their brand to me, I must cherish that trust.
I don't expect every brand to come to me, nor do I expect everyone to like me.
I only hope that after every collaboration ends, I can say to myself:
"This time, I gave it my all." ✦
Living slowly, creating slowly, slowly becoming someone worthy of trust.
Buddhism says, building good connections isn't about how many people you know, but how you treat everyone you meet. ☁︎
