How to create a hit product on Xiaohongshu? Xiaohongshu’s hot-selling guide!

As a gathering place for the new generation of consumers, how Xiaohongshu promotes products and content that young people love and efficiently creates hit products has become the focus of attention for many brands.

Today, we will analyze Xiaohongshu’s brand operation strategy based on several successful marketing cases to help brands quickly capture the minds of users and increase product exposure.

01 Create differentiated selling points to capture the user’s mind

As more and more brands join Xiaohongshu, brands must have their own core products in order to form differentiated competition and be seen and remembered by consumers.

The automobile brand "Wuling" has successfully stood out through the Hongguang mini. Unlike traditional cars that pursue performance, Wuling pays more attention to product appearance. On Xiaohongshu, which is mainly used by young female users, the "trendy appearance" of Hongguang mini is closer to users' consumption needs.

30-day data shows that there are 929 hot search terms related to "Wuling" and more than 200 related topics.

Observing the popular notes in the past 30 days, most of them are "appearance modification". Among them, the official account posted "Fashion is a cycle? Hongguang MINI classic car is too amazing ❗️" through retro appearance modification, which caused many users to call out "Ten thousand people signed a petition to be the first in mass production" and "Arrange! Must buy it when it comes out", and received 15,200 likes.

By creating relevant topics and promoting content, Wuling successfully transformed the Hongguang mini from a "grocery shopping vehicle" to a "walking graffiti wall", making it the brand's most eye-catching symbol; it also allowed "Wuling" to complete the transition of traditional brands to younger ones and completely refresh the brand's perception.

It can be seen from this that before entering Xiaohongshu, brands need to refine their own differentiated potential products, amplify key product highlights through marketing methods, create popular products to drive the brand, and leave a basic impression on users.

02Deliver differentiated appeals and reach more potential users

Xiaohongshu is a content-centric book. In addition to gaining traffic through influencer advertising, its official account is also an important support for brands to build private traffic pools. By narrowing the distance with users, brands can better establish direct communication with users, facilitating subsequent transaction conversions.

So how should brands run Xiaohongshu corporate accounts and how should they plan content?

Taking the domestic beauty brand "pmpm" as an example, it shows that the official account @PMPM has published a total of 761 notes and received 997,400 likes.

The account targets young female users and adopts various content forms such as "brand promotion", "welfare delivery", and "product evaluation" to reach more potential users.

Enhance brand value and build user base awareness by exporting CCTV report videos;

Welfare activities attract user interaction, reach more people, and achieve traffic acquisition;

Repost the professional content of @老爸评测, endorse the product from multiple angles such as formula analysis and product efficacy, increase the trust of Xiaohongshu users, and reduce the time it takes to make consumer decisions.

The sharing of individual operators is more about experience gain for users, while the operation of corporate accounts focuses on tone and quality, attracting users through brand stories, product analysis and welfare activities.

03 Cultivate user interaction habits and improve fan stickiness

A good product needs to build a close relationship between the brand and users, and improve fan stickiness by cultivating users' regular interaction habits.

By observing the maternity and baby brand "Babycare", we found some common patterns of brand interaction with users:

Brand activities

In addition to interactive lottery benefits, the official account @Babycare also recruits new product experience officers and wild spokespersons, encouraging users to post experience notes in the form of pictures, texts or videos, and through the social influence of fans on Xiaohongshu, further cover more people and achieve marketing fission.

Create interactive topics

"Babycare" recently launched the topic #BabycareNewParentingAesthetics#, inviting the younger generation of parents to share their experiences in raising children and their babies' growth stories, show their diverse parenting concepts, and build a space for sincere sharing.

This topic has received 796,070 views so far, leveraging the social attributes of the topic to encourage users to co-create and turn users into natural brand communicators.

Brand linkage

At special times, leveraging brand collaboration to expand voice is also a common promotion model. On Double Eleven, "Babycare" launched a joint gift box with "NASA", and in the New Year, it sent joint coupons with maternal and child brands such as "Biostime and Mead Johnson". By integrating the advantages of both parties and penetrating users in both directions, it broadened the circle of target users and achieved a win-win situation.
