Pain Points Small and Medium-Sized Merchants (SME Corp) Face

  • Fierce competition: Small price fluctuations, numerous competitors, and slight adjustments leading to intense competition.
  • Three zeros dilemma: Few followers, minimal sales volume, no viral articles, and trouble breaking through by using competitor material.
  • Unclear system: absence of a well-established hot-selling operating paradigm and ignorance of the primary order leverage.

Recognising the Consumption Patterns of the Target Customers of Small and Medium-sized Retailers

Consumption Habits of Target Audiences
Consumption Habits of Target Audiences

1. Casual browsing on XHS

Reading related notes makes target users want to consume right away when they surf Xiaohongshu for leisure. Situations arise in which consumers unexpectedly come across a product they wish to buy or really need.

2. Searching for the intended objects

Through Xiaohongshu, users make consumption decisions where notes remove consumption obstacles and cause them to buy a product they had simply planned to look at.

Today, more chances are presented by Xiaohongshu for small and medium-sized retailers to succeed with “single products”

  • Superior reputation: Xiaohongshu offers a marketing environment with superior repute.
  • Product explosion: Multi-dimensional product display to arouse impulses to buy.

One product is represented by one note, and one category of products by one account

Matrix of products:

  • Products that draw traffic: Listed as exposure accounts, 50% of the notes are about product and 50% are about grass planting.
  • Profitable products: Listed under product promotion account B, 20% of the notes are for grass planting and 80% are for product notes.
  • Regular products: Classified as product marketing account C, include product notes accounting for 90% and grass planting notes for 10%.

Three Steps to Become an Expert at the Quick Creation of Orders’ Fundamental Logic

  1. Willingness to Test Products: In the Xiaohongshu marketing environment, reevaluate from scratch what the main product strength is.
  2. Ability to Improve: To identify the best-selling product note model that works for you, test and iterate from scratch.
  3. Capacity to Replicate: Mass replication beginning at a specific point with leading products and shops.

Willingness to Test Products

Xiaohongshu e-commerce is run with the goal of identifying best-selling models and core product advantages. The need of testing viral posts and items, searching for viral post templates, and then mass producing viral posts is well known to many in Xiaohongshu Pro Account (小红书专业号) as well as Xiaohongshu Business Account (小红书企业号) holders.

Many retailers do not realize, nevertheless, that testing viral postings and items is not done mindlessly but rather with an eye towards product analysis to increase testing effectiveness. 

Second, deciphering “products” is just as important as taking notes in the so-called viral post template. 

Thirdly, emulating popular postings should concentrate on more scientific mass production rather than just copying.

From this angle, most merchants have essentially only been taught how to write notes, and our final objective is to identify the main advantages of our products by adding these three neglected phases.

What is the core product strength (核心产品力)?

Features of core product strength (核心产品力)
Features of core product strength (核心产品力)

Not only are the product’s differentiating selling points, qualifications, price/origin/source; so are 

  1. flexibility to adapt to various situations (场景适配能力) to showcase selling points
  2. reproducible best-selling models 
  3. emotional value that instills trust in target consumers

Conditions for publishing product notes

  • Must have at least XHS professional account (小红书专业号)identity.
  • Must have opened a store.
  • The store has released the products linked to the notes.
  • APP version > V7.23 (versions above V7.23 are the only ones that allow you to associate items. Up to nine goods can be linked with versions between V7.23 and V7.55. Just one product can be linked to versions V7.55 and up.

Three Common Misconception Regarding Xiaohongshu Content Promotion

1. Grass-planting notes (种草笔记) have more traffic

Product notes will not be restricted by the platform; grass-planting notes receive higher traffic. Learn more about the 3 Steps XHS Content Strategy For More Traffic. Note traffic is not the sole factor used to evaluate and enhance product promotion.

2. Product notes affect grass planting (种草)

The exposure to grass-planting notes and accounts is unaffected by product notes. You can write confidently as long as it doesn’t violate XHS content writing rules and regulations.

3. Deleting post that drive low traffic

Relevant note information should stay. Generally speaking, the order of posting notes should take into account how a visitor reads on your homepage and the psychological process involved in placing an order.

Three Brand Case Studies: The Issues and Solutions

Xiaohongshu Marketing Pain Points

Serious product homogeneity, high unit price for dried fruit snacks.

Aim

The basic requirements are to keep the unit price the same and boost sales.

How did the retailer come to know its main product strength?

  1. Geographic Advantage: Encouraging consumers to trust the source of items by identifying the regional benefits of those products.

The seller highlights in video notes the benefits of product quality differentiation by emphasizing geographical buying points (such as choosing regional specialties like dried figs) and product advantages (clean ingredients, low-temperature baking process, regional characteristics, palatability, good for female body).

  1. Personal IP: An excellent performer in showcasing “serial tricks,” this IP is very cinematic overall.

Making product demonstrations in videos calls for expertise. Instead of making a conventional hard sell, Xiaohongshu’s target customers should be able to fully feel the product by presenting it in several aspects, whether they be visually or by communicating their taste or flavor or by integrating events from life.

  1. Diverse Categories (Bundled Price Benefits): Since testing the next best-selling product is expensive, putting best-selling products into scenarios attracts new products.

Testing costs are lowered, the scenario is expanded (such as Mother’s Day gifts, group purchases with roommates, workplace gifts, etc.), and the target user group is indirectly expanded by taking use of the benefit of product diversification, combining previous single-product bestsellers with other single products, and using products to promote products.

Case 2: In six months, the Niche Daily Needs Category Brand boosted revenues five times and followers by 200%.

Xiaohongshu Marketing Pain Points

High unit costs and a small interest group for their non-essential products presented marketing issues for the company in this case study. Their capacity to draw clients and broaden their market reach was usually hampered by these pain points.

Marketing Plan Solution

The company overcame these obstacles by implementing a ground-breaking plan that highlighted the unique style of their products and character setting.

Character setting was developing or using personas, brand personalities, or sympathetic characters that spoke to the intended audience. Deeper relationships and brand loyalty were fostered by the brand by creating characters who represented the goals and values of its consumers.

To emphasize their own style, the company also highlighted the special qualities, design aspects, and advantages of their products. Customers found their products more enticing and memorable because of this strategy, which helped set them apart from those of their competitors.

By precisely using character development and product distinctiveness, the company effectively addressed its Xiaohongshu marketing pain points. Their income consequently increased fivefold and their fan base increased by 200% in just six months.
