3. Yunji CEO: Social e-commerce is too crowded, let’s go to member e-commerce to play
In the early morning of October 9, Yunji founder and CEO Xiao Shangluo posted an internal letter to all Yunji users. In the letter, Xiao Shangluo emphasized that Yunji is facing a period of transformation from social e-commerce to member e-commerce.
The open letter stated that although the social e-commerce represented by Yunji was once a "disruptor" in the e-commerce industry, there are countless cases of subverting "disruptors". In recent years, there has been an era of "no social networking and no e-commerce", and the social e-commerce track has become increasingly crowded. Yunji wants to open up a new battlefield, and the method is to occupy the minds of users. In this regard, Yunji should not be the existence of "social e-commerce", it is just a way and means to achieve a business model. From the user's perspective, member e-commerce is Yunji's true face and competitive advantage. (Yibang Power Network)
