Introduction
China’s digital ecosystem is fragmented, with different platforms dominating different parts of the customer journey. Overseas brands that focus on only one channel often face high advertising costs, low conversion rates, and weak brand recognition. A well-structured cross-platform social strategy allows brands to reach users at multiple touchpoints, improve trust, and optimize marketing efficiency. With more than a decade of experience helping overseas brands localize in China, we have seen that combining multiple platforms with SaaS tracking tools is the key to improving ROI and achieving stable growth.
