PRESENTED BY IDEMMILI BUSINESS HUB
(This serves as an introduction to the topic of the course, designed to spark a love for the dynamic world of Asian e‑commerce and give new learners a solid foothold in the subject.)
🌏 Why “Asia E‑Commerce Strategy” Matters
Asia is home to the world’s most vibrant online marketplaces—Alibaba, Lazada, Shopee, Tokopedia, and countless others. Together they generate more than US $3 trillion in sales each year, dwarfing the combined e‑commerce revenues of North America and Europe. For entrepreneurs, marketers, and business‑development professionals, understanding how to navigate these ecosystems is no longer a luxury; it’s a necessity.
This mini‑certificate gives you a concise, action‑oriented roadmap that you can apply immediately—whether you’re launching a new brand, expanding an existing product line, or simply wanting to stay ahead of the curve in the global digital economy.
📚 Course Overview – 5 Core Topics
Below is the “road‑map” you’ll travel during this mini‑certificate. Each topic is structured around three pillars: Concept, Practice, and Take‑away.
1️⃣ Understanding the Asian Digital Landscape
Concept – Get a macro view of the region: key markets (China, India, Southeast Asia), internet penetration, mobile‑first behavior, and cultural nuances that shape buying decisions.
Practice – Use free tools (SimilarWeb, Statista, Google Trends) to map the traffic sources and consumer sentiment for a chosen product category in two different Asian countries.
Take‑away – A one‑page “Market Snapshot” you can reference when pitching a new market entry.
2️⃣ Platform‑Specific Strategies
Concept – Deep‑dive into the leading platforms: Alibaba/1688 (B2B), Tmall & Taobao (B2C), Shopee, Lazada, and Tokopedia. Learn the differences in seller onboarding, fee structures, and search algorithms.
Practice – Walk through a step‑by‑step mock listing on Shopee, from product photography guidelines to SEO‑friendly title crafting.
Take‑away – A “Platform Checklist” that outlines the must‑do items for a successful launch on any of the five major portals.
3️⃣ Localization & Cultural Adaptation
Concept – Explore language, payment, logistics, and trust‑building tactics that resonate with Asian consumers (e.g., cash‑on‑delivery, social commerce via WeChat and LINE).
Practice – Rewrite a sample product description into three local dialects (Mandarin, Bahasa Indonesia, Hindi) while preserving brand voice and SEO keywords.
Take‑away – A ready‑to‑use “Localization Blueprint” template for any new market.
4️⃣ Digital Marketing Tactics that Convert
Concept – Master the most effective channels: influencer collaborations, KOL (Key Opinion Leader) campaigns, short‑form video (TikTok, Douyin), and performance‑based ads on platform ecosystems.
Practice – Build a low‑budget 7‑day ad plan using Facebook Ads Manager and platform‑specific ad suites, measuring KPIs such as CAC (Customer Acquisition Cost) and ROAS (Return on Ad Spend).
Take‑away – A “Campaign Planner” worksheet that lets you map out creative assets, budgets, and timelines in minutes.
5️⃣ Logistics, Fulfilment, and Post‑Purchase Excellence
Concept – Understand the logistics network that powers Asian e‑commerce: warehousing options, third‑party logistic partners (4PX, Ninja Van, J&T Express), and cross‑border customs.
Practice – Simulate an order fulfilment flow from order receipt to delivery confirmation for a hypothetical product sold on Lazada Malaysia.
Take‑away – A “Fulfilment Flowchart” you can adapt to your own supply‑chain needs, minimizing delays and returns.
