Why you want to achieve brand independence in China

Brand independence is when a brand does not rely on third parties like online marketplaces to sell products. In other words, it is when a brand draws clients directly to their website instead of an online marketplace.

Why is brand independence advantageous?

Firstly, brand independence creates a stronger brand image, which keeps your product on top of mind of potential customers. Rather than searching for the product on an online marketplace where your products are listed alongside your competitors, customers directly to your website. Secondly, your brand owns the traffic it draws. You do not need to share the traffic with competitors in the marketplace. The way your product is shown on the market place is not subject to the algorithms of third-party platforms, which may not work in your favor. With brand independence, customer data is yours to analyze and is not hidden or filtered by a third party site. It is the most transparent way to know how customers spend time looking at your products online.

In addition, brand independence is cost-effective. Brands must give around 15% of your sales commission to Amazon (when you sell in the West) or 6 – 10% of your sales commission to TMall (when you sell in China). And this is just the tip of the iceberg!

We invite you to a seminar to analyze whether brand independence is right for you and answer all your questions.
