McKinsey's "2024 Global Consumer Trends Report" shows that brands that differentiate their products through independent websites enjoy an average price premium of 25-40%, three times higher than platforms. Research by the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade indicates that companies that systematically deliver value through independent websites experience a 35% decrease in customer price sensitivity and a 50% increase in repurchase rates. Analysis by the World E-Commerce Forum emphasizes that independent websites, with their unique freedom of content display and data accumulation capabilities, are key to breaking the cycle of price wars.

Three major consequences of the platform price comparison mechanism

1. Compressed profit margins

The price difference of the same category is generally less than 10% (data from China Chamber of Commerce for Import and Export of Machinery and Electronic Products)
Ad bidding leads to a 25% annual increase in customer acquisition costs

2. Loss of motivation for innovation

Counterfeit products were launched within 3 days (a record for the speed at which a 3C brand's new product was copied)
The proportion of R&D investment continues to decline

3. Customer loyalty collapses

Platform user brand awareness <15%
Price sorting algorithm cultivates the habit of price comparison
