New ways for luxury goods to play on Douyin

COACH

COACH This provides a replicable and innovative model for luxury brand marketing on Douyin . Brands collaborate with influencers from content agencies through celebrity-level projects, employing an integrated approach of "short video content recommendations + brand-specific live streams" to achieve a closed-loop operation from brand awareness building to sales conversion.

The specific implementation is divided into two phases:

Phase 1 : Short Video Pre-launch – Pre-launch product recommendations and target audience building

Brands collaborated with influencers to release short videos showcasing "scenarios of men and women buying handbags." The videos interspersed product reviews of different COACH handbag collections to deepen users' understanding of the products, stimulate potential brand enthusiasts, and help accumulate data on the brand's target audience.

Phase 2 : Brand-Specific Livestream Events – Concentrated Conversion of High-Interest Consumers

During the live stream, products are explained and shown on real people; the live stream also features exclusive order discounts to repeatedly reinforce users' willingness to buy and guide brand-loving customers to place orders.

Through this integrated strategy of "content recommendation + live streaming conversion", COACH achieved a breakthrough in peak sales in its live streaming rooms and significantly improved overall operational efficiency.
