Advantages

There are two types of e-commerce on Kuaishou now. The platform was only opened this year. The user attributes are good, and the competition is small. The headquarters also provides traffic support for the second type of e-commerce.

1. Large user population

The number of registered users of Kuaishou has exceeded 800 million, and more than 70% are young users born after 1995. These users have disposable income, a good consumption outlook, grew up in the mobile Internet era, and have online consumption capabilities. In addition, a relatively high proportion of Kuaishou users are from third- and fourth-tier cities, and such users are easily influenced by advertisements.

2. There are many user tags

If there are enough users, it is naturally inappropriate to launch advertisements everywhere. Many users are not the advertiser's target customers. Therefore, reasonable label attributes are what many advertisers need to refer to when placing advertisements. Kuaishou is no exception. It currently has label attributes such as gender, age, region, and interests. Advertisers can choose appropriate label attributes when placing ads, so as to deliver the ads to the target audience as much as possible.

3. Pay by results

Kuaishou ads support charging based on click effects and viewing effects, that is, fees will only be incurred after your ad is clicked or your ad video is viewed. Ads are merely displayed and will not be charged, which avoids wasting advertising costs. Only when users are interested in your ad will they be interested in clicking on it.

Disadvantages

Every platform has its advantages and disadvantages, and Kuaishou is no exception.

There are extremely high requirements for creative advertising videos: the video needs to have super high resolution and high-definition video quality; it is best for creative advertising videos to have their own creative ideas rather than copying other people's ideas.

When the platform was first launched, the signing rate was low. At the beginning, Kuaishou launched products but there was no platform to manage them properly. To a large extent, it lacks certain standardization and intelligence, which has a certain impact on both merchants' advertising and Kuaishou users' user experience. Now that Kuaishou’s Taurus e-commerce system is online, it has solved some of the problems and has become the best choice for Kuaishou to do cash on delivery for its second-tier e-commerce business.

How to do Kuaishou's second-category e-commerce

Most of the advertisements placed by second-tier e-commerce companies on Kuaishou are in the form of "real shooting + oral broadcast". Using videos as the carrier of advertisements, users are attracted to click on advertisements and enter the landing page in the video, thereby guiding users to place orders.

Let’s take this watch ad as an example:

Real-life native videos are used to show the product usage process and highlight the product effects. Although the video is horizontal, it is processed into vertical version and equipped with voiceover and subtitles to improve the conversion effect (used when there is no material)

Video cover: The picture should be clear and highlight the product being promoted. The first frame of the video is the default cover. If the first frame is not suitable, you need to edit and change it.

Video creativity: high definition (resolution: width & height >= 720p; bit rate >= 3000kps; frame rate >= 20fps; audio >= 64kbps) + vertical size (1440*1920) + appropriate duration + unique product advantages (appearance/quality/performance/taste, etc.)

Cover copy: appropriate font size and color + appropriate number of words + appropriate word position + highlight the promoted product + highlight the main advantages of the product/promotional activities/cash on delivery + avoid misleading offers.

Video copy: appropriate font size and color + appropriate number of words + appropriate word position + further highlight product advantages, promotions, cash on delivery + click on call button to guide.

Slogan: Emphasize product advantages/details of promotions/cash on delivery + click on a call to action button (the call to action button copy should be "Buy Now")

After the user clicks, a landing page is needed to guide the order. In previous issues, we have explained the general framework of landing page production. If anyone doesn’t understand, you can go back and look it up. Here are a few points to note:

Product and event details display: product details pictures (use animated pictures appropriately)

Form: Name + Contact Information + Address + Payment Method (Cash on Delivery) + Form Submit Button

Bottom floating navigation: purchase button + other purchase methods + customer service

Product ads need to have bottom floating navigation

It is not advisable to add too many products, which will result in the form submission button not being visible on the first screen, and some products are not included in the video. The default product option must be the product promoted in the video

Today we will mainly introduce the four major promotion methods for Kuaishou advertising to promote the second-category e-commerce products, so that advertisers who have not been exposed to Kuaishou advertising can quickly master Kuaishou advertising promotion methods.
