Case study on brand marketing of health nutrition products in China

7 Mar 2024

We can learn from good cases that in the healthcare product industry, there are specialized product lines for families, young people, women, and the elderly. Those groups show specific features and have special needs. Crowd marketing, that is, to understand characteristics and needs of certain groups to carry out targeted marketing, is used by telling stories, arousing sympathy, inviting stars and Internet influencers to endorse goods and cooperating with different brands to build reputation. Sometimes, to show the health attributes, some brands employ sports marketing or invite medical experts and nutritionists to popularize science to raise health awareness of the public.
