An overview of business opportunities available in China for marketers. A presentation from the China Digital Marketing & Social Media Summit held on the 24th of October 2013.
3. Critical drivers for Chinese consumers' engagement and
loyalty in a competitive market
4. CONSUMER CULTURE STANDS IN THE WAY OF
MARKETING TO CHINA
Stores in the UK have had to close
down through recession and, says
Amaze, "due to massive changes in
how people use technology".
A wider choice, convenience and the ease
with which mobile and Internet shopping
can be conducted will lead to the
inevitable - a high street, not of stores in
which purchase decisions will be made
and carried out, but of showrooms in
which browsers can find products they
want and then use technology to have
shipped to their door.

10. Do social media listening via search, not social
networks to pinpoint the right consumer
conversations to penetrate
11. It's either news or entertainment on social
networks like Sina Weibo
This American Presidential Election related post is taken from Durex’s Sina
Weibo account. It was posted on November 7th and within 24 hours had
accumulated over 55,000 forwards and 14,000 comments.
The Chinese sentence at the top reads “The difference between Obama and
Romney is…”
12. Integrating retail shopping with
millennial emotions is key
Dove Gifting’s Chinese Valentine’s Campaign
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x9Yq-ASSc78
This campaign was to drive Dove gifting sales in the 3-4 weeks before Chinese Valentine’s Day.
Using the insights that Chinese netizens looked online for gift ideas for their loved ones in the
weeks before the day, we brought to life an online romance that grew sales and momentum via
social networks. To create this tribute to true love, the story was told via relevant and fun
content updated and spread organically daily through Weibo.

15. Changes in millennial media lifestyle
changing shopper marketing
-2 key social commerce
behavior:
- Showrooming:
visiting a store to check
out what they want, then
going online to find out
more and buying it via
ecommerce.
- Webrooming: reading
every available online
sources and asking all
friends before coming to
the store for a purchase.
Wealth of information and third party opinion
on social media is disrupting traditional
marketing funnels
18. Creating emotion-based marketing
through social purpose branding
Brands Need to Stand
for Something or They
Mean Nothing Online.
For example, Taobao turned
Singles' Day (a play on 11.11 i.e.
November 11th) to 'Tianmao
Day‘, which led to 3 billion RMB
in inventory sold in 1 evening
19. Using emotions to create memorable
shopper moments
What happens when a
childhood friend of a brand lose
out to more aggressive modern
brands like Häagen Dazs, Ben
& Jerry’s? Copy their marketing
methods?
Or should it remind its people
what Wall’s ice-cream used to
mean as a brand and a social
activity among its young
customers? To remind them
that Wall’s is about sharing
happiness to those around you?
