In an environment where consumption is sluggish and inflation is high, going overseas has become the second growth curve for major companies.
From Anker Innovations becoming the first smart hardware company to go global, to more and more domestic brands embracing globalization, the trend of going global has penetrated into all walks of life. With China's advantages of complete supply chain, low labor costs and mature production technology, home living products have become one of the popular tracks for brands to go overseas. In recent years, not only have cross-border giants such as Zhiou Home Furnishing and Jessica Home Furnishing embarked on the IPO road, but many home furnishing brands such as Costway and Homary have also been shortlisted for the "Top 50 Chinese Global Brands in 2023". The overseas home furnishing market is very busy, but the road to globalization is not a smooth one. What are the characteristics of different overseas markets? What new trends have emerged in the global home furnishing industry? How should overseas brands deal with the impact of local brands and seize the opportunities of going overseas?

The history of Ecovacs's rise is an evolutionary history of a Chinese manufacturing company that relied on basic OEM to exchange for market share and eventually developed an independent brand and internationalization.
- Differentiation to meet user needs
When Ecovacs entered overseas markets, there were already century-old local brands in the market, such as established competitors Consumers have a natural trust and dependence on iRobot. Therefore, if Ecovacs wants to expand its global presence, it must not rely solely on hardware and marketing. The foundation of all research and development should be based on insight into user needs and solving those needs in a differentiated way from a higher perspective. When creating new product value, giving new product value to old products that may be eliminated by the times can sometimes bring unexpected results.
In April 2022, a cool naked-eye 3D large-screen advertisement swept overseas social media. The protagonist of this event was the Chinese brand Ecovacs. It is reported that its sweeping robot products have landed in four major landmark cities around the world, namely Tokyo, Japan, Seoul, South Korea, New York, USA, and Stockholm, Sweden, instantly setting off social platforms. This planned event not only presented a visual feast to global audiences, but also perfectly demonstrated the Ecovacs brand's cutting-edge technology of "foreseeing the future".

- Market segmentation: Main demand for sleep home track
- Product highlights: "Five senses" - light, sound, and fragrance product matrix
OTER found that because of the unique quiet environment and restful atmosphere of the bedroom, people pay more attention to the perception of the "five senses" in the bedroom. In particular, light, sound and fragrance become particularly sensitive in private resting spaces. In the bedroom, sleep plays a very important role. Therefore, OTER helps people with stress and anxiety have a comfortable and healthy sleeping and waking experience through a "sleep space" built around the three core senses of vision, hearing and smell.
In terms of brand and product marketing, OTER mainly uses YouTube and TikTok as its main marketing platforms. Through videos, users can better experience the usage scenarios and functional advantages of OTER products. OTER also pays great attention to the "scenario-based" display in video marketing.
