At the end of 2012, there are three aspects of the domestic electric power business: 1, the first is the domestic vertical electric business in the capital met with a large platform at the same time the squeeze (price war, Traffic enclosure), investors throw red children, Massamasso and other peer envy for the lucky ones; Busy looking for capital to rely on the Godfather. 2, the second is the foreign vertical electric platform in low-key engagement-style to kill into China, domestic vertical electric dealers lose capital advantage how to compete with foreign capital? 3, again because of the stimulation of Ma Yun Bao, the traditional manufacturers have put into the arms of the third party platform, will be the platform operating costs further up and flow dilution, and vertical electric operators operating the original characteristics of the gradual reduction, so it seems that the vertical electric business survival space where? With the traditional brand manufacturers in the third-party platform for blood, or focus on their own channels (users and suppliers) deep plough?

Where do vertical electricity dealers go? 2013 may be the hardest time for a vertical electric trader, who will last? In the face of you prepare for the winter of the vertical electric business boss, wind for reference to the strategy of Zhu Yuanzhang and Chairman Mao, "Dig deep, wide grain, high wall, Slow King".

First, deep digging: is in the vertical industry area, deep digging industry resources, relying on electric business platform data analysis and other advantages, from the deep excavation supply chain link to enhance the margin space. Cooperate with suppliers deeply, or intervene in product design, and intervene in brand operation;
1, the industry brand is small, then the development of its own brand, so Home department stores, clothing shoes and hats and so on;
2, the industry brand is larger, the use of platform traffic and brand suppliers to cooperate marketing. such as wine, building materials, cosmetics, etc.

Second, the extensive food: is for the protracted war (2-3 years) do a good strategic reserve, capital of temporary cold can not burn money to fight the scale. After the capital weaning, completes the self hematopoiesis function as soon as possible, enters the profit balance the condition.

It's hard to be loyal to a user who comes in price. Just like "Xun" to do standardized 3C product differentiation is characterized by rapid distribution.

2, frugally optimize the marketing structure, take the fine channel of delivery. Cut to the portal media, outdoor delivery, tight or even can reduce the site, products such as special delivery.

The four strategies are summarized as follows:
