Company is starting a new product focused on proxy shopping for Japanese apparel. Before building the product, I am conducting extensive research on our competitors. By examining how they present their products, use color schemes, and organize information. Using the insights from this competitor analysis, I can highlight our unique design features and establish a clear value proposition.

We monitor prices and utilizing automated tools to track pricing trends, while collaborating with the marketing team to offer discounts and larger incentives for bulk purchases, enhancing our overall value proposition. Targeting only Hong Kong customers sets us apart from platforms like Lazada, Shein, and Taobao. There is currently no market leader in Hong Kong, presenting a unique opportunity for us to establish ourselves as the go-to destination for Japanese fashion. By fostering customer loyalty and encouraging word-of-mouth referrals, we can create a strong brand presence in this niche market.
