Cultural Adaptation Verification: Request the team to provide a "Cultural Context Analysis Report" explaining how to avoid cultural conflicts. For example, a European beauty brand once received negative feedback because its outsourcing team inappropriately used "white gift boxes (associated with funerals in China)". After Yuwei took over, it switched to red Chinese-style designs and paired them with local phrases like "exclusive limited edition", boosting the engagement rate by 42%.
User Insight Testing: Raise industry pain points (e.g., "cross-border logistics delays") and observe if the team can design content that aligns with Chinese users’ "anxiety about timeliness". The "Customs Clearance Acceleration Guide" Yuwei planned for an Australian health product brand precisely addressed user needs, achieving a 28% save rate.
Case Cross-Verification: Request industry-specific localization cases, focusing on the content adjustment trajectory of "overseas brands → Chinese market". A U.S. tech brand, after comparing cases, found that the "technical popularization" content Yuwei created for its competitors retained professionalism while integrating colloquial expressions like "avoid pitfalls" and "step-by-step tutorials"—ultimately choosing to cooperate with Yuwei.
Qualification Verification: Request the team to provide a WeChat Content Compliance Handbook, specifying the update frequency of the sensitive word database (monthly updates required) and compliance review process (at least 3-level review). Relying on its independently developed compliance system, Yuwei proactively blocked non-compliant phrases like "relieve stress" for a European alcohol brand, revising them to "tasting scenario sharing" with zero rejections.
Cross-Border Compliance Testing: Inquire about details such as "user data storage solutions" and "cross-border payment content expression standards" to verify familiarity with the Personal Information Protection Law and WeChat cross-border rules. A Southeast Asian snack brand once had its articles restricted because its outsourcing team lacked knowledge of "cross-border product traceability" compliance requirements; after Yuwei’s team added "customs filing numbers" and "traceability inquiry portals", the review passed instantly.
Risk Preparedness: Request a "violation response plan", including emergency replacement mechanisms for sensitive content and account authority restoration strategies. The Compliance Guarantee Plan Yuwei developed for a Hong Kong jewelry brand successfully resolved the penalty risk of "missing advertising labels".
Industry Verticality: Prioritize teams with in-depth experience in the target industry. For example, cross-border e-commerce brands should focus on whether the team understands scenarios like "618 Shopping Festival" and "bonded warehouse shipping". The "Double 11 Pre-sale Guide" Yuwei planned for a Japanese home appliance brand accurately aligned with cross-border logistics timelines, achieving an 8% conversion rate.
Stage Adaptability: For the cold start stage, review "brand awareness content cases"; for the mature stage, focus on "conversion-oriented content data". A German kitchenware brand in the cold start phase adopted Yuwei’s content plan of "craftsmanship + kitchen tips", growing its followers by over 2,000 in 3 months—far exceeding the "product hard sell" model of its previous cooperation team.
Result Traceability: Request "single-article content data reports" including read count, engagement rate (≥3% passing line), and conversion path analysis. The report Yuwei provided to a British maternal and child brand showed that the sharing rate of "parenting tips + product placement" content was 2.3x that of pure advertisements, providing a basis for subsequent strategy optimization.
Process Standardization: Request a Service SOP Handbook specifying all process nodes from topic selection to publication (e.g., 2 working days for topic confirmation, 5 working days for content creation). Yuwei uses Feishu multi-dimensional spreadsheets to synchronize progress in real time, and a Southeast Asian coffee brand reported a 60% reduction in cross-timezone communication costs.
Feedback Response Time: Test the response speed for inquiries during non-working hours (e.g., 8:00 at the overseas headquarters); professional teams should respond within 12 hours. An Australian study abroad agency once missed a hot topic because its outsourcing team took 2 days to respond to a "visa policy update" request; Yuwei’s bilingual communication group achieved "real-time response + 48-hour content adjustment", seizing the traffic window.
Clear Responsibility Definition: Specify "revision times (≥2 times recommended), copyright ownership, and priority for urgent content" in the contract. Yuwei agreed with a European watch brand to "prioritize holiday marketing content scheduling", locking in the Dragon Boat Festival node 1 month in advance and increasing content preparation efficiency by 40%.
Core KPI Breakdown: Beyond basic read counts, include in-depth indicators such as "new follower growth rate (≥1% per article)", "graphic jump rate (≥2%)", and "repeat purchase guidance conversion rate". Yuwei’s analysis for a U.S. apparel brand found that the click-through rate of the keyword "limited-time discount" in "Black Friday Exclusive" articles was the highest; subsequent emphasis on such expressions increased order conversion by 50%.
Data-Driven Optimization: Request the team to propose actionable adjustment suggestions based on data. After Yuwei’s data diagnosis, a French perfume brand reduced the proportion of "fragrance professional analysis" content from 70% to 40% and added "scenario usage guides", increasing the graphic completion rate from 58% to 75%.
Ecosystem Collaboration Plan: Evaluate whether the team can create supporting content for Channels and Mini Programs. For a Southeast Asian snack brand, Yuwei developed "new product tasting" content that simultaneously generated long-form Official Account articles, 15-second Channel scripts, and community interaction copy—boosting omnichannel conversion by 28%.
