Will the Agency and Wholesale Model for Xiaocaitiao Vapes Lead to Price Disorder?
Xiaocaitiao is a relatively unknown vape brand that somehow became popular, and the secret behind its rise highlights the power of distribution channels. As the title suggests, today we discuss the pros and cons of a layered agency and wholesale model. Xi
The Xiaocaitiao e-cigarette is an obscure product that has gained popularity seemingly overnight, revealing the power of distribution channels behind its success. As the title suggests, today we will discuss the pros and cons of a layered agency wholesale model for promotion. You guessed it, the Xiaocaitiao e-cigarette quickly found major agents and then distributed through them, rapidly capturing the market. The advantage of this method is speed, but the downside, as everyone knows, is that it can lead to price chaos. Will the Xiaocaitiao e-cigarette's agency wholesale model lead to price disorder?
If the Xiaocaitiao e-cigarette explicitly prohibits the sale by wholesalers and Taobao merchants when launching a product, allowing only certain Tmall or Taobao stores to sell it, and establishes exclusivity, then if other Taobao stores upload and sell its products without permission, I believe neither the onlookers nor the violating store owners would have any complaints.
However, if the Xiaocaitiao e-cigarette allows a general agent or several agents without requiring them to sell only in physical stores or only in certain Tmall or Taobao stores, then it implicitly allows them to sell to all Taobao merchants, wholesalers, physical stores, and even retailers. This means that different Taobao merchants will have varying purchase prices, leading to different selling prices, and secondary wholesalers will also have different purchase prices from the general agent. Without a regulated sales and pricing system, how can there not be price chaos? The Xiaocaitiao e-cigarette has the responsibility to balance the interests of different types of merchants and seek a point of equilibrium. At the same time, it also has a responsibility towards merchants who engage in price chaos; if you do not distribute chaotically, how can others engage in price chaos? After the price chaos, if you feel no responsibility and directly blame others, claiming that the factory never produced this product and accusing the complainant of selling counterfeit goods, that is completely irresponsible!
The restlessness and chaos in the industry can be traced back to the source; if the source is so irresponsible, how can we expect those below to be more responsible?
From what I understand about traditional industries, they have a complete set of process norms. General agents purchase at a discount based on the sales price, and distributors purchase at a discount based on the counterfeit sales price. The price that reaches customers is determined through multiple rounds of research and negotiation to ensure that the pricing reflects value. Arbitrarily setting a price is an extremely irresponsible act.
Furthermore, it is not enough to simply conduct evaluations to fool people in the industry; the real task for the Xiaocaitiao e-cigarette is to accurately place advertisements to convert more similar consumer groups into players who buy your products. This is what the Xiaocaitiao e-cigarette needs to focus on; buying and selling among the same group of people means they are already aware of the prices and cost-performance ratios. How can merchants avoid price competition to retain these customers?
Everyone is pursuing their own interests; Taobao merchants have their own profit motives, hoping customers flock to them; consumer players have their own interests, wishing for free products; the Xiaocaitiao e-cigarette wants to build a good brand and achieve good product sales. However, the root of all problems lies at the source. Has the source been diligent?
Additionally, let’s talk about the Xiaolatiaotiao e-cigarette, which is produced on the same assembly line as the Xiaocaitiao e-cigarette. The Xiaolatiaotiao e-cigarette was designed to be a simple, convenient, and affordable e-cigarette. After the first model of the Xiaolatiaotiao e-cigarette was released, it underwent continuous refinement. The Xiaolatiaotiao e-cigarette first appeared in public in June when it represented the Borton Group at an exhibition. The company leader is a fan of Lei Jun, and from the beginning, Xiaolatiaotiao has followed a direct sales model similar to Xiaomi, continuously iterating the product based on user feedback. This direct sales model aligns with Xiaolatiaotiao's original intention, reducing unnecessary layers of agency and delivering affordable products directly to consumers. However, the downside of this direct sales approach is that market penetration is too slow, and ultimately, the slower model will be overtaken by the faster one. Therefore, how to balance long-term and short-term interests? The future development trends of these two sibling products will depend on their subsequent development.
