EternityX shared key tips for Korean brands in unlocking business potential within the Chinese market:
Understand the market: if brands have not already had a strong presence in China, they should always keep in mind that China’s digital media landscape is vastly different from the West and much more complex.
Familiarize themselves with social and content trends: they should first identify and leverage the various new social and content platforms in China. By leveraging the power of KOLs and often more importantly, KOCs, to carve out a niche for their products. These channels often offer deeper engagement with established, passionate communities and enhanced personalization opportunities.
Be strategic in customer profile segmentation: the Chinese market is way too huge for any single brand who try to dominate it. It is, thus, vital to carve out clear audience segments and avoid going mass. Invest strategically is very important when it comes to targeting the Chinese market.
