Expose derivative Four Misunderstandings: not all is MLM

 

CNDSN May 12th (Ti media Li Donglou) despite the birth of micro business for a long time, but whether the media or industry so far have not a clear conclusion. Who can be called a micro business? Who is a derivative of coat or direct MLM Gang? Many people can't distinguish between truth and falsehood. But in this process, the public for derivative and all kinds of misunderstanding or misinterpretation may also deepen the East, according to my observation, to make a analysis of the derivative of this group, but also to help eliminate the outside world for many misunderstandings in micro business. Right or wrong, welcome to clap brick.

1, micro business is not equal to the micro channel + electricity supplier

In fact, after being created from the term derivative derivative to now is regarded as "great scourges", what is the micro business, regardless of the media, or practitioners, there is not a unified understanding. Most of the mentioned derivative, that is in WeChat that a group of friends of sellers, obviously this understanding can not be said to be completely wrong, but at least it is very one-sided.

Now it seems in the derivative is not equal to the circle of friends in the WeChat sellers, because all kinds of micro business platform has been rising, such as micro shop, pocket pass and so on, the user can open a mobile shop directly above, you can then store the link sharing and sent to any one platform, from this meaning look, micro business has WeChat beyond this one platform, micro business is no longer WeChat + electricity supplier, but all the electricity supplier + mobile social networking platform.

That is to say, micro business does not necessarily have to be attached to the WeChat circle of friends of the sun, if can find their precise target users and sales in other mobile community or social platform, but also the same walk through the road of derivative. Even for many products, some mobile community traffic and users may also be more accurate, the conversion rate may be higher.

2, not all small business marketing

Derivative is a term from 2014 to now on the Internet in the fire. However, the derivative of a unique group in the eyes of the media is not a glorious role, this is because in the early development of micro business, a large number of fake and shoddy cosmetics mask manufacturers through micro Pyramid credit MLM or direct layers of agents, makes a large number of inferior products into the hands of the small agency finally, led to the emergence of "the circle of friends of friends to cheat" situation. This makes the development of micro business overshadowed, taking a large number of micro practitioners engaged in quality of goods in other industries which are also affected.

In fact, with the Pyramid mode of direct marketing, big money poor quality cosmetics and mask maker is not derivative, essentially they are selling or marketing, "derivative" is just a coat draped them. In my opinion, the micro business more still needs to create new business value, and can not be blindly deception or fraud, and civilization in the business world, in addition to considering the money does not touch the law, should also be more torture their own conscience, and whether there is contrary to social ethics and morality.

Last week, the East has participated in a small micro business salon, also let me first with a lot of friends engaged in derivative offline communication. In these micro friends engaged in business, selling tofu, sell jujube, and sell tea, among which there are Beijing Tongrentang, PISEN and other brands such enterprises. These should be the most reasonable form of derivative, the first derivative of the liberation of every individual, regardless of is the second derivative or, or other mobile providers or the most important or the need for better products.

3, micro business is not profitable

For many young people, the employment situation is grim, hope to solve this problem through entrepreneurship, and in many micro business advocates (mainly mask cosmetics manufacturers) where do derivative has become a lucrative business, which makes a lot of inexperienced housewives or students, borrow money to do their agent, buy a lot of goods (such as mask, health care products, cosmetics, etc.) however, in accordance with the marketing gurus guidance in the circle of friends to sell these goods.

Moreover, driven by the interests, these micro business practitioners are likely to the sale of goods to their most able to gain the trust of the people, such as friends and family members etc.. But after consumed the last point contacts of their own, micro business is in trouble taking. In the end, not only did not earn the money, will their hard earned hard-earned money or school tuition meals for users all.

Therefore, micro business is not the business of derivative gain ten thousand percent, do still need some commercial, but also have the ability to select goods, and subject to their own social circle, serious business derivative is probably a small business to life, rather than what the masters can serve as CEO, mouth "marry white Formica, was put on the pinnacle of life" big business.

4, micro business is not only the new channel of business innovation.

From the business perspective, micro business is not a new business model innovation, but a channel innovation or mining. This means that the derivative and the existing types of business models are not mutually exclusive, but the existing electricity supplier channels of a new or added. Therefore, for many brands electricity supplier companies, whether to do micro business are not mutually exclusive, but can choose to do the traditional business, while doing micro business. From this point of view, whether it is WeChat or circle of friends, all kinds of micro shop platform, is only a channel of existing mobile providers.

And, in the wave swept through the micro business, many traditional companies are even taking micro itch for a try, as a life-saving straw, hoping to open up a new prospect of micro business. However, due to the characteristics of micro business of social power, not all products are suitable for the use of micro business platform to open sales.

In the early days, before taking the micro mask cosmetics have not been invaded, there are a lot of micro business sales of apple, Samsung and other electronic digital products. At present, in addition to the mask cosmetic has been hit a lot of water in the pyramid, do micro business more successful products basically stay in agricultural products. This is mainly because these products are new types, more easily spread by means of social relationships, and the formation of purchase. While other industries like products with sales of mobile social platform products need to be fully considered.

In short, in my opinion, micro business is not equal to the micro channel + electricity supplier, also not equal to MLM or direct, micro business is only the mobile Internet era, a new channel electricity supplier, while the micro channel may be more dispersed, not necessarily concentrated in the big platform like Taobao, Jingdong such but, probably scattered in various types of micro shop, micro letters, unfamiliar street and all kinds of mobile vertical community. For many business friends insisted in micro business, in the mobile Internet era, every individual liberation, with various types of platform, can zero threshold in some small business, but not everyone can send big money, still need a rational and prudent, avoid themselves into MLM to trap to good. 3
