Days trapped in the information cocoon
In March last year,SophiaI took more than a dozen puff sleeve dresses developed by the team to meet the purchase, and the other party only turned over2The piece frowned: "Before."100The name is in the hot seller47Puff sleeves, do you want to spell out the factory price? ”
What's even more heartbreaking is that two weeks laterSophiaatSHEINI saw almost the same model - from a factory in Jiangsu, and the price was lower than their cost2US dollars.
This situation is not unique in the past. Although it is compliantSHEINThe trend is provided, but the competing manufacturers are also using the same reference, and finally the roll is turned into a low price. Although the goods are out, the profit is pitiful.
useSophiaIn the words:“We are stuck in a dead cycle:dependSHEINTrends and reference options provided → develop homogeneous products → be priced down; Relying on their own design team to climb over the wall to pick up social media influencers, find blue ocean products, and analyze fashion trends, but it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the efficiency of payment is greatly reduced. ”
Until one day in the cross-border clothing community,SophiaThe team's friends saw that someone was using it"Overseas Exploration"market analysis tools,In less than five minutes, the blue ocean category of the women's clothing market was analyzed。 Then a special person was appointed to explain and demonstrate the product.

It can help designer teams identify which categories have better momentum in the near future and which demand is weakening with one click.

Through such analysis tools, the designer team can quickly gain insight into the trends of the target site market and obtain ratiosSHEINThe buyer provides a richer reference to the design direction and ideas.
After a period of use,SophiaDenote:"After using big data tools for market research and trend analysis, the feeling of being trapped in an information cocoon is no longer there."

The first time to use data imitation
With the mentality of giving it a try,SophiaThe team startedOverseas explorationuse. At the Designers Week,SophiaWhen the interface of overseas money exploration was projected for the first time, everyone gathered around.
"I still remember the first time we used it, I wanted to try to find the women's tops and skirt styles of independent websites in Europe and the United States, and the first feeling was that there were very rich clothing industry labels in the commodity library, which supported us to quickly find the corresponding styles according to the needs of our own companies."

Not only independent stations,SHEINSites in various countries,INS、Pinterest, the styles of other mainstream overseas e-commerce platforms can also be used in a similar wayFast and preciseFilter out. With the help of overseas exploration, designers do not need to brush a large number of image sources and switch between websites and platforms.One-stop"Accurate Money Finding"became possible.
In addition to having richer ways to find money and more picture sources,【Smart Image Search】The function also becameSophiaA great feature that teams love. In the past, designers wereINSI found a style that I thought was good, but I didn't know which brand and store its e-commerce source was, and I didn't know its recent sales.
and utilize【Smart Image Search】, any style found by the designer when choosing a model is fineLink to the source of the same model to obtain accurate and objective sales basis, and determine whether the style is inSHEINIt is already on the shelves. In addition, by searching for similar models, you can also obtain similar style sales on various sites, allowing designers to get more inspiration for facelift references.
Overseas exploration-Intelligent image search
Sophia:"In the past, it was time-consuming, laborious, and blind to find pictures through a large number of searches by designers. Using overseas exploration to select models can avoid too subjective assumptions, and free up the designer's time to focus more on the facelift design. ”

Explosive anatomy class
After solving the problem of selection,Sophiaand her team also began to try to solve it with big dataThe explosion rate is low and the order return is smallquestion.
In the previous design process, designers found multiple direct reference styles, but how to determine which element or attribute made the best-selling style a hit? It's rare to make a hit model, but you can't clearly review the success factors, is it a style? Color? Fabric? Craft? The price band?
…… These problems make it difficult to form a replicable experience for explosive designs. Every time a payment is made, it is still a new "big gamble".
And with the help of overseas exploration, the gene of explosive models"Dissection" became possible.
