Chinese marketing services results: Xiaohongshu 0 to 1 breakthrough for Synergetic
HI-COM created and executed a social media strategy for Synergetic Eco home products in China. Among other services, we worked on the brand’s presence on Xiaohongshu and placed a heavy promotion plan (ads+KOL+KOC pack).
Project Objectives: re-create the brand page, uplift the total SMM styling, increase brand awareness.
What we did: When we took over the accounts we had to re-think how the brand was perceived by potential customers in China. Shifting lots of materials and re-establishing a new publishing style with a strong visual identity of the brand on Xiaohongshu was our first mission. Only then did our team develop and implement a promotion package to drive traffic to the page and increase impressions within the platform. The total deliverables included a mid-tier KOL promo, a pack of 40 KOC product reviews and promotion, and a series of ads to selected posts. Within just 2 months, our promo actions generated a follower increase of 195%, and an increase in exposure from KOL+KOC recommendations (243k+ views), with brand engagement at 7k+.
We are now in the second phase of account management and promotion.

Chinese marketing services results: WeChat x Xiaohongshu cross platform KOL campaign for EM Normandie
HI-COM developed and managed a KOLxWeChat ad camapign for EM Normandie business school.
Project Objectives: Develop and apply an advertising strategy to expand awareness among the niche audience in order to create leads and increase conversion.
What we did: this project was very interesting for us, as this was the first time we created something on one platform and promoted it on another. Does it make sense, you may ask? Yes it does, when targeting niche audiences, and when looking to leverage “the best functions” of two social media platforms. Conversion creation in China is not about ad budgets anymore. You need strong and engaging content to advertise on. So here we had to think outside the box. Thus, the idea of running a KOL campaign on a limited budget on Xiaohongshu (for the content) and then advertise it via moments ads on WeChat (with better segmentation and direct conversion channel) was born. All in all, we got a nice exposure of 955k+ and great number of leads.
