It is crucial for the company to grasp the pulse of the market.
Meanwhile, we all have loads of data that talking about digital media usage in American and European market. How about China? Is digital media only for young and geek here? How about the affluent class? They are the groups with surprisingly high consumption power which makes them perfect target for luxury brands. China’s affluent class diversified in both income and lifestyle. They have their unique and sometimes exclusive social circle.
