Sam & Bo Xu - Creating content outside the box
Play • 57 min

Sam & Bo Xu are twins from Xiamen, China. When the boys were nine years old their mother immigrated to America but due to some misfortune in the paperwork only Bo was able to go with her. Four years later Sam was able to join his family in Lemoore, CA. During High School Bo started up his YouTube Channel (bomiiao) posting some comedy skits. A turning point in their channel happened when they posted a different look at a trending video topic and it went virial. With the knowledge of how to create good content that people like to watch the boys took to TikTok with a passion. Sam was the one to make his own TikTok account first where he started to gain a lot of views. When Bo joined TikTok he started a fun competition between their accounts. Making use of the trends on TikTok they were able to grow their accounts to the point where they could take brand deals and support themselves. With the money they made posting content they bought their own place in the San Gabriel Valley and an apartment closer to the college they are attending.

A push to think outside the box when it came to making content came when both Sam and Bo got banned from TikTok when they joined others in using a trending audio. From there they made other accounts as well as continuing to manage different company TikTok accounts. When Bo’s new personal account was banned he decided to focus more on managing the accounts of different companies.
