在第四季度,根据节日精神定制内容至关重要。考虑创建节日主题博文、礼品指南和互动内容,与节日气氛产生共鸣。
利用社交媒体营销和参与
社交媒体平台在节日期间热闹非凡。制定一个全面的社交媒体内容日程表,与您的第四季度总体战略保持一致。在社交媒体平台上投放有针对性的广告、举办吸引人的竞赛和提供独家优惠,都有助于抓住节日气氛并提高用户参与度。

旺季要保证这个供应链环节的“稳”
The peak season is about stabilising this supply chain link
旺季期间的供应链管理对于确保企业的稳定运营至关重要,尤其是物流环节。
根据 Xeneta 的最新分析,继 6 月份连续第六个月实现两位数增长之后,全球航空货运市场正走向运费上涨的“热门第四季度”,并警告称,没有为今年的旺季做好准备的货主和货运代理商可能会发现自己“完全受市场摆布”。
Supply chain management during peak seasons is critical to ensure stable business operations, especially in logistics.
The global air cargo market is heading towards a ‘hot Q4’ of rate increases after a sixth straight month of double-digit growth in June, with a warning that shippers and forwarders ill-prepared for this year’s peak season may find themselves ‘at the mercy of the market,’ according to the latest analysis by Xeneta.
在Q4期间,物流压力增大,运输成本上升,因此,提前规划和稳定靠谱的物流服务是必要的。
During Q4, logistics pressure increases and transport costs rise, so advanced planning and stable and reliable logistics services are necessary.
在跨境越洋的商品出海过程中,整个运输过程涵盖众多复杂环节,物流一直以来是成本大头,能够占到20%-30%左右,而旺季更甚。起头外贸商家和电商卖家会选择低价零散的中间物流商、外包清关服务商等松散协同接力完成商品运输,反而叠加各类价格和增加更大的风险,导致利润和现金在货里打滚。这意味着,选择一家高性价比且有经验的拥有供应链物流服务商合作,是众商企降本增效的重中之重。
In long-distance cross-border trade, logistics costs account for a large share of 20-30%.In order to cut costs, merchants will choose the price of low fragmented intermediate logistics providers, outsourcing service providers and other loose relay to complete the transportation of goods.Instead, it stacks up the costs and increases the risk factor.This means that it is important to choose a cost-effective and experienced supply chain logistics provider to cooperate with.
