In the face of China's unique social networking environment and online retail mode, how to develop new customer groups through various platforms, enhance customer loyalty and maintain consistency between online and offline customer experience is the key to luxury brand exploration of digital marketing in China.

After the ceremony, WeChat users can enjoy the highlight of the show in the 360 degree dynamic scene through the Burberry WeChat official platform.

In addition, some luxury goods also carry out customer relationship maintenance management on WeChat platform.

In terms of customer service, in addition to triggering automatic response to key words, some brands use WeChat instant messaging function to provide one to one exclusive customer service services, such as LV and Burberry for customer service to provide manual customer service at designated time periods.
