Why "Singles Day" has become a carnival of online shopping

Why does "Singles Day" become a net-shopping carnival overnight?

"Singles Day" is a group of college students in the 90 's launched a single family of alternative "Valentine's Day." Since Taobao first launched the "Double 11" Half-price event in 2009, more and more electric dealers in the "Singles Day" on the day to launch a major promotional activities, this year, there are 80% of the electric business.

Chen Zhangwan, a professor of management at Fuzhou University, who has long been concerned about business, said that the online shopping carnival, which was instigated by the electric business, was more of a commercial promotion, and the whole business logic was extremely simple: low, low, and low prices. Chen Zhangwan said, "Singles Day" just filled the "11" Golden Week and Christmas, the gap between the new year, stepped on the rhythm of the business law, with the right place and the advantages of entering the November, the north is generally snowing, cold air southward, rainy day more and more people will be in the house, This creates a good premise for online shopping.

Traditional department store bosses face new challenges

Chen Zhangwan said that from 2011 onwards, "Double 11" the collective carnival of electric dealers is obviously in the offline physical store "class." November is under the line Mall promotions empty schedule, the line of large-scale promotions need holidays, holidays and other cooperation, and E-commerce is not necessary, "give me a reason to rave, you can go beyond the traditional consumption habits, at any time to develop a new rhythm and rules."

In the Provincial Chain Management Association Training Center Director and Deputy Secretary-General of the Provincial Business Association Chuan Center, the traditional retailer net at present more applause not draw, and have to net, physical stores more needs to do the human shopping experience, as well as to do their own brands, if blindly playing promotional battles, obviously not only online shopping. He says the line needs to interact, not fight.

Xu Peace of mind said that he very much agree with Ma Yun's view, that is, "double 11" is the signal of China's economic restructuring, is the new Economy (310358, fund bar), business model of the traditional business model of the war.

Day Cat Mall Jack Jones flagship store, Camel clothing flagship store, friends home flagship store three shops, "double 11" single day sales have broken through the billion mark. And in Fuzhou mainstream department stores, similar Jack Jones such mainstream brand, daily sales of 20,000 ~5 million, annual sales but in tens of millions.

In the 2006, entrepreneurship in Taobao began to become the mainstream trend, some people catch the best time, fished to the first bucket of gold. However, this time the shop, but a group of friends or family members of a small shop. June 2011, Taobao a demolition of three, divided into Taobao, cat, a good deal (online group). Since then, many of the Taobao shop began to transform, from simple to sell goods began to do their own brand, to the day cat brand.

Chu Jing said that sellers still need to be based on their actual status to determine the survival mode, but whether the C shop or B shop, we must adhere to the "Quality first, service first" principle.
