Tablet dosage forms improve customer experience, carry out distribution channel reform and promote national layout
The company’s traditional sales areas are concentrated in Zhejiang Province, and there is still room for expansion in the provincial market. In the market outside the province, the company carried out marketing reform outside the province in 2020: first, the company promoted tablet products for the market outside the province, avoided the disadvantages of inconvenient carrying and use of powder, and improved the use experience (less bitterness); Second, the company has gradually transformed the self operated mode outside the province into the distribution mode. Through the dealers having rich marketing experience in the local area, the promotion effect is more effective. Marketing reform is expected to solve the pain points of development outside the province and give it growth power.
Risk tip: the promotion outside the province is less than expected, and the policy implementation of traditional Chinese medicine is less than expected.
