4. Tmall New Retail Ye Guohui: The media that turns shopping guides into brands
According to August 29, at today's "Tmall New Retail Open Class·Fast Consumer Goods Special", Ye Guohui, general manager of Tmall's new retail platform business department, said that there are two core directions of new retail. One is consumer experience, providing consumers with the ultimate and unparalleled consumer experience; the other is the improvement of commercial efficiency. The basis of all this is digitalization. Digitalization changes the way store operations are carried out, and at the same time it can turn shopping guides into brands' partners and brands' media, rather than salespeople who charge commissions. Establishing digital connections between upstream and downstream merchants can lead to the reconstruction of the supply chain. (Yibang Power)
