Your fans already create.Make it official revenue.

A community of 100K fans making fan art and fan games every day beats 2M followers who only watch. What matters is not the fan count but the urge to create and how often they come back.

Virtual characters, game characters and webtoon worlds branch endlessly into raising, games, scenarios and dress-up. Personality-based IP is best started with light formats such as quizzes and missions.

Early-customer criteria

These five make a first campaign

01

A marketing trigger (new title, single, event) within the next 90 days

02

Fans already make fan art, edits or fan sites on their own

03

A clear IP rights holder and a short license-approval process

04

Official social accounts can feature the best entries

05

Other fans have a reason to come back, share and buy

How to start

Free tribute campaign → paid items

Open a free fan-made app event for a debut anniversary, birthday or subscriber milestone. Once the best entries and usage results are in, negotiate the official license and paid items.

1. Tribute campaign (free)

Announce 2–3 weeks before the date. Distribute the official asset pack plus the allowed/prohibited guide. Fans build personality quizzes and mini-apps.

2. Showcase and official feature

Submit → review → showcase. The official account features the best entries. Measure participation, shares and return visits.

3. Negotiate paid items

Supporter packs, skins, digital goods. Paid via Docenty Pay with creator and IP shares settled. Non-exclusive license limited by term and format.

Start IP deals non-exclusive rather than exclusive, and with rights limited to specific content types, terms and regions rather than full rights. First approval comes faster.

Three weeks: start with a free tribute campaign, open paid items on anniversary day

Virtual creator 'Lumi' — 1st debut anniversary (Fictional virtual creator (agency-owned IP))

1st anniversary D-21Buyer's view
Who
Business development, virtual creator agency
This quarter's goal
A burst of fan activity for the anniversary + first digital revenue beyond ads
What keeps them up at night
Fan art and fan games are already pouring in, but none of it is official, so there's no revenue and no control. Merch means inventory risk
How it's done today
  • ✕Every anniversary: fan art event → retweet → done. Fan games float around unofficially and the agency doesn't know
  • ✕Zero digital revenue beyond merch. License requests handled manually by email
  • ✕No rights or derivative-use consent for fan creations
Operating timeline
  1. Week 1
    Announce tribute campaign
    Distribute a non-exclusive, time-limited (3-month) fan Pack: 6 character expressions, lore, prohibited list. Start in non-commercial mode.
  2. Week 2
    Create & showcase
    Fans build a 'Lumi personality quiz', 'stream mission tracker', and '1st anniversary memory book'. Agency approval → showcase.
  3. Week 3
    Paid items on anniversary day
    Open a '₩1,000 support pack' on 3 approved entries. Payments on Docenty Pay; creator and IP shares accrue after payment verification. Best entries featured on stream.
  4. After
    Reuse for the next anniversary
    Best entries stay in the library and get updated for birthdays and subscriber milestones. Creators get priority for the next campaign.

What we say in the meeting

“The agency only handles the IP Pack and approvals; Docenty runs operations, payments, and payouts. First paid revenue lands on anniversary day.”

Proposed package
Fan Spark ₩3M (hypothesis) · paid items after approval

A concept scenario built from a fictional brand, buyer and schedule. Numbers are campaign targets, not achieved results or customer cases. Prices are a sales hypothesis (VAT excluded).

MCNs · Agencies

One agency managing 20 creators, instead of 100 individual creators

We verify contract rights per roster creator and provide an agency-level campaign dashboard. Recruit fan apps for each anniversary; the best ones outlive the event, with the goal of continued fan traffic and payment revenue.
