KOL agency for Hong Kong brands launching in Malaysia or Singapore

Last updated November 2026
Quick answer

shakalakaa is a brand-side KOL agency for Hong Kong brands expanding into Malaysia and Singapore. We source local creators, brief and contract them with usage rights agreed in writing, then run the best posts as Meta and TikTok ads, reported in enquiries, orders and bookings. We run creators in Malaysia and Singapore only, not in Hong Kong.

What a Hong Kong brand gets from a KOL agency like us

  • Word of mouth in a new market. Local creators introduce the brand to Malaysian and Singaporean audiences before the ads arrive.
  • Content you can run as ads. Usage rights are in every contract, so the posts that work run from the creator's handle on Meta and TikTok.
  • Results a finance team can check. Enquiries, orders, bookings and cost per result, with reach kept as context.
  • One disclosure and claims standard. Every paid post is labelled, and health, beauty and finance claims are checked before filming.

Which Hong Kong brands this kol agency work suits

We work with groups, chains and mid-to-large brands:

If you need creators in Hong Kong itself, a local Hong Kong agency is the better choice.

How a campaign runs

  1. Objective and claims list. The result to measure and what creators may say, agreed first.
  2. Creator shortlist. Chosen on audience location, content quality and past results, not follower count alone.
  3. Contract. Deliverables, dates, disclosure wording, exclusivity and ad usage rights, signed before filming.
  4. Publish and amplify. Drafts reviewed; the strongest posts run as whitelisted Meta ads or TikTok Spark Ads.
  5. Report. Enquiries, orders and bookings, by creator.

Creator rules in Malaysia and Singapore

  • Singapore: the ASAS social media guidelines require paid creator content to disclose the commercial relationship, and MOH says non-medical professionals, social media influencers included, may not advertise licensable healthcare services.
  • Malaysia: advertisements for medicines and health products, creator posts included, need Medicine Advertisements Board (KKLIU) approval first.

We review every draft against these before it goes live; confirm specifics with your legal adviser.

Our Hong Kong work

We have not published a Hong Kong KOL case. These are the same team's Hong Kong results, from paid media and booking work rather than creator campaigns:

  • Seoul Aesthetic: consultation enquiries from 42 to 168 a month over six months.
  • Skin & Beam: pre-paid bookings from 85 to 362 a month over six months.

We serve Hong Kong clients remotely from Kuala Lumpur; we have no Hong Kong office. Social and video work for the same accounts runs through our social media marketing in Hong Kong team, with filming by our video production Hong Kong team.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can you run creators based in Hong Kong?

No. We run creators in Malaysia and Singapore only. For Hong Kong creators, a local Hong Kong agency is the better choice.

Which creators do you work with in Malaysia and Singapore?

Malay, Chinese and Indian-community creators in Malaysia, and English and Mandarin creators in Singapore, chosen for the audience the brand needs to reach.

Do you represent brands or creators?

Brands only. We plan and run creator campaigns for the brand, and we do not manage creators or sell a roster.

Can creator content run as ads?

Yes, when the contract says so. Platforms, duration and whether ads may run from the creator's handle are agreed in writing before filming.

How is a KOL campaign priced?

Each engagement is quoted on its scope; we do not publish rates. Creator fees are agreed with each creator and paid by the brand.
