However, in order to stand out in the fierce market competition, cross-border e-commerce enterprises need to operate well. The following are some suggestions for cross-border e-commerce enterprises to operate well:

Before positioning the product, merchants need to conduct in-depth market research. Market research can help merchants understand the needs of the target market, the situation of competitors, and the preferences of consumers. Merchants can collect data through online surveys, questionnaires, focus groups, etc., and analyze and summarize the data.
2. Target market selection
Merchants need to select a suitable target market based on the results of market research. The selection of target markets needs to take into account factors such as market size, consumption level, and cultural differences. Merchants can select one or more target markets and formulate corresponding product positioning plans based on the needs and characteristics of different markets.
3. Product selection
When choosing products, merchants need to consider factors such as product quality, price, brand, and packaging. Merchants need to choose products with good quality, reasonable price, high brand awareness and exquisite packaging. At the same time, merchants also need to consider the applicability and market demand of the products. Merchants can choose suitable products by analyzing market data and understanding consumer feedback.
Fourth, product positioning
When positioning products, merchants need to consider the characteristics, advantages, needs of the target market and the situation of competitors. Merchants can meet the needs of consumers by positioning the functions, prices, brands, packaging and other aspects of the products. For example, merchants can position products as high-end products, mid-range products or low-end products.
Five, formulate marketing strategies
When formulating marketing strategies, merchants need to consider the positioning of products, needs of the target market and the situation of competitors. Merchants can increase product awareness and sales by formulating strategies such as advertising, promotional activities, and social media marketing. For example, merchants can post product information and pictures on social media to attract consumers’ attention.
Six, continuous improvement
The cross-border e-commerce market changes rapidly, and merchants need to continue to pay attention to market dynamics and changes in consumer demand, and adjust product positioning and marketing strategies in a timely manner.
