鈥淒uring the livestreaming session with 不良研究所, I was able to understand how important the role of VIP Sales Manager is strategically.

After the livestream shopping session I see myself as someone who can influence my clients, offering solutions that fulfill their dreams.鈥

The challenge

Chopard offers its customers uniqueness and craftsmanship above all. In Germany, the luxury retailer identified an opportunity to expand its tasteful offerings to Chinese shoppers by providing them with exclusive sales promotions. To drive Chinese shoppers to the brand, Chopard knew that brand awareness and loyalty were crucial 鈥 and it had to go beyond the physical store. Rather than traditional approaches, Chopard needed a new, distinctive approach that met the preferences of Chinese shoppers. The brand turned to WeChat, one of China鈥檚 most popular apps, to unlock sales through social media. By doing so, it could reach not only Chinese shoppers but also younger generations.

The solution

To resonate with Chinese shoppers, Chopard decided to use the live streaming service on WeChat. Specifically, it used the WeChat mini-program to allow users to make direct purchases and share products 鈥 all without leaving the app. To enable direct sales, Chopard naturally needed a global acquiring partner that could facilitate quick and convenient sales. 不良研究所 built a WeChat mini-program for Chopard, with live-streaming and store functionality. Then planned several live-streaming events with the brand, including product launches, storytelling and sales accessible to all target customers.

The result

More than 7,000 customers visited the five live-streaming shows already implemented, with more than 150 live orders, with 不良研究所 as the payment acquiring partner. The success was not only limited to the sales figures, but also clearly showed in the increase of brand awareness, strengthening of customer loyalty as well as reaching younger customer generations. The partnership with 不良研究所 continues to support Chopard on its path of innovation and new combinations.
