Joe Shiang - the Multi-platform Superstar

Posted on April 29, 2020

Only at the age of 20, Joe has successfully achieved what others are trying throughout their lives. Yup, you guessed it -  to be a multi-platform influential superstar. Let’s take a peep on how he intends to continue with his journey. 


SushiVid:Did you plan on being an Influencer or did it just happen naturally?


Joe: It did come naturally, I still remember around August of 2018 I’ve just created my TikTok account, and after just 3-4 months, I became an influencer on both TikTok and Instagram. 


SushiVid: Do you plan on expanding your presence on different platforms in the future, why?


Joe: I’m not sure, because currently I’m in university taking up a designing course. When I began my university life, collaborations will probably be lesser than it is now. I’ll plan on expanding on different platforms when I graduate. 


SushiVid: What are some goals that you wish to achieve in the next five years as an influencer?


Joe: I hope that I can become a model as well, as a model with a unique style. 


SushiVid: How do you deal with the haters? 


Joe: Before this, I would  get upset or I would talk to my friends when there are comments from haters. But now, I just ignore any negativity.




SushiVid: Are there any other influencers that inspire you and your content? 


Joe: Of course! For example, Jane Chuck, Brian See, and Juwei Teoh. They are currently my idols, as I feel that they are perfect and each of them has their own unique style.


SushiVid: What is the most remarkable experience you had as an influencer?

 

Joe: I’ve only been an influencer for a year, so currently there are no remarkable experiences that come to mind. 

 

SushiVid: As a long term influencer, how do you plan on staying relevant with the rise of new influencers?


Joe: I feel that I should be more active on social platforms or to attend more events, and I should set up my own style without copying others.


SushiVid: What are some tips you wished you were given when you first started?


Joe: I wish that I knew about the market prices because my friends told me that each influencer actually has a market price, and I didn’t know how to set up a price for myself before this. 


SushiVid: What are some usual factors that encourage you to work with a brand?


Joe: Sometimes famous brands won’t pay me, but they will sponsor me with gifts as well as offer me with long term collaborations.
