Junlebao: Is Being Cheap a Mistake?

In 1995, Wei Lihua founded the dairy brand Junlebao in Shijiazhuang with just one yogurt machine, two tricycles, and three rooms. Facing intense competition and initial sales failures, he gradually opened up the market by giving away free cups with purchases. Over the years, Junlebao leveraged partnerships with Sanlu and Mengniu to grow sales, but now, as it aims for a 500 billion yuan revenue target and an IPO by 2025, it struggles with low profit margins, high debt, and consumer complaints.

Unexpectedly, Consumer Attitudes Have Changed So Much in the Past Decade

Living standards have improved, but what are people's consumption preferences? A brief recall of wages and prices ten years ago confirms the improvement, but by how much? Let's look at the data. Source: China Statistical Yearbook. By the end of 2023, per capita income and expenditure have nearly doubled over the past decade. Remember the Engel coefficient from middle school? It measures the proportion of food expenditure in total consumption, indicating living standards.

Breaking the Involution: Better to Be Different Than Better

As society changes rapidly and market involution intensifies, brand building becomes increasingly difficult. The era of 'advertising rings, gold pours in' and 'creative brilliance, brand breakout' is fading from mainstream marketing. In this context, how can we build brands effectively? All marketing methods must be based on business logic, evolving with market, enterprise, and brand perception development; nothing is static. In the 'incremental' market era, brands relied on policy dividends, demographic dividends, and bold advertising creativity. Now in the 'stock' market era, with declining population growth, reduced consumption willingness, and oversupply, fragmented creative ads alone cannot break through competitive barriers. Only by evolving toward 'holistic, systematic, dialectical' scientific marketing methods can brands escape involution and build long-lasting brands. In terms of marketing development, brand building is advancing 'from the advertising era to the scientific era,' and I call this scientific marketing approach the 'Scientific Brand Concept.'

Cold Snap Arrives: Why Is the "Warm Drink Trend" Struggling to Warm Consumers' Hearts?

As the first cold wave of winter arrives, people instinctively bundle up and, in their hurried steps, yearn to hold a hot drink to warm their hands and dispel the chill. Major brands have keenly seized this demand, upgrading their warm beverage offerings in an attempt to spark a "warm drink revolution." However, can this surging "warm current" truly warm the market? During recent market visits, the author observed that many customers merely glance at the warm drink cabinets before turning away. This coexistence of "boom" and "bust" reflects the complex reality of the warm drink market, where brand enthusiasm is high but sales remain disappointing.

The 'Chinese-style health food' track that Genki Forest and others are eyeing: 'It's highly likely a 10-billion-yuan blockbuster product will emerge'?

Run Kang Pharmaceutical's deputy general manager Guan Yuling told FBIF that it is highly likely a 10-billion-yuan blockbuster product will emerge in the Chinese-style health food track. In recent years, Run Kang has focused on OEM business for Chinese-style health foods, collaborating with brands such as Zishi, Haidilao, Metro, Wanglaoji, Leiyunshang, Tongrentang, and Honeymoon Dessert.

Guan Yuling's judgment is based on witnessing sales growth of partner brands and Run Kang's revenue doubling for three consecutive years.
