Abstract
Today, live streaming selling has grown and pioneered sales opportunities for luxury brands. Through a lens of influencer marketing and source credibility theory, this study investigates the role of streamer identity (i.e. internet celebrities and e-shop sellers) and streamer level (macro vs. micro) on luxury brands’ live streaming sales. Using fixed-effect models, the data from 7,164 live streaming campaigns between 1 August 2020 and 31 December 2020 are analyzed covering 17 international luxury brands on Taobao Live. The results suggest the use of a greater number of internet celebrities and e-shop sellers yields greater live streaming sales. Internet celebrities’ live streaming sales are positively associated with e-shop sellers’ live streaming sales. We further find that the streamer level moderates the effects of internet celebrity count and e-shop seller count on live streaming sales. These findings offer novel managerial implications for luxury brands’ streamer selection strategies.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
