First, the platform. The core of the "community-based" marketing strategy is not the product platform, but the community media platform that integrates community users. Second, the relationship.

However, compared with the fission propagation of social media, offline community marketing may require brands to make more far-sighted long-term investments or conduct large-scale and precise coverage of specific cases in order to achieve results.
