I. Market changes under epidemic conditions

The epidemic has had the biggest impact on offline commerce. Business in catering, shopping malls, training, entertainment, conventions and exhibitions can hardly start, and some have begun to move online. Because people go out and reduce social activities, demand for optional consumption, such as beauty, luxury, and apparel, will also decrease. All in all, the epidemic has brought great losses to offline consumption scenarios.

In traditional marketing, brand to final sales need to be transmitted layer by layer, through a series of channels such as advertising, public relations, events and promotions. In Internet network marketing, the sales link is to find the target customer-acquisition-maintenance-conversion. Digital marketing emphasizes understanding of consumers. Through the analysis of consumer behavior data, digital acquisition, maintenance, and transformation, the concepts and nodes in traditional marketing have been reintegrated, and products and brands have been recreated.

In this new integration, three points are highlighted today: user integration, communication integration, and channel integration.

III. Marketing Growth Methodology (1): User Integration

There is a formula for user growth, user growth = positioning + scene + community + content + fission.

Positioning: that is, grabbing the mind of the user and having a unique position in the user’s mind;

Scenario: user creation of consumption scenarios, enhancing user participation;

Community: Participatory community is the logic of user growth;

Content: Create “good content” that excites users

Fission: Resonance triggers fission transformation growth of the relationship chain.

Use a case to explain, the brand is called “Daddy Reviews”.

Dad’s evaluation is very popular among mothers and infants. The initial popularity was due to the “poison book cover” incident. Since then, there have been public accounts, malls, Taobao shops, short videos, etc., which has formed a very large matrix. His positioning is the evaluation of children’s products, helping parents to choose good products for children.

In content production, from graphics to video evaluation to live shopping guide, it has been changing according to user habits. And there are many interactions, and it will be found that user interactions can also be incorporated into the content. For example, during a pandemic, a fan asked how to use the “84 disinfectant”, and he would take a video to answer, and upload the video that the user participated in directly. To your own content platform.

The community is also very typical, with more than 70 groups. The core of the community is the value. His value is “discovering the invisible dangers in life and keeping children away from reading harmful products.” At the same time, he has joined the public welfare, such as the love formaldehyde meter drifting activity. In terms of content fission, they are catching popular public events that everyone pays attention to, and driving members in the group to participate in retransmission.

Fourth, marketing growth methodology (two): channel integration

The method of channel integration is the channel growth addition and subtraction method: 3 plus 1 minus, + explosives, + numbers, + KOL,-de-intermediate.

  • Channel addition: + explosive

    In 2019, UNIQLO and KAWS joint models became explosive products, causing many people to snap up. This is just the appearance. The deeper level lies in Uniqlo’s business strategy. It constantly cooperates with cross-border designers to use IP to create explosive products for brand empowerment. Only by creating explosives in various ways can the thrust of the channel be enhanced.
