THE SHIFT from marketplaces to social commerce and brand-owned solutions
The majority of the population in Mainland China, especially 3rd and lower-tier cities, directly jumped from no internet-connected devices to advanced smartphones. In this ecosystem, tech eCommerce giants like Alibaba and Jing Dong (JD) flourished, by making popular brands and products accessible to everyone, no matter their location. However, the eCommerce market is evolving rapidly and the competition in it increased considerably. On the one hand, consumers started to demand customized experiences and communication, while on the other hand a higher competition put pressure on brands that now need to invest way more in marketing and get user data to provide a better service. This scenario is creating an interesting trend: a progressive shift to social commerce and standalone solutions, such as brand-owned websites and WeChat stores.
