In July 2025, Faro Hsia, managing director of overseas markets at Hangzhou Jiandan Youwei Co. Ltd. (UWANT), confronted weak US traction for a Chinese digital-native cleaning-appliance brand based in Suzhou, China, that thrived in China via livestreaming and e-commerce. Amazon Inc. (Amazon) launches and ByteDance Ltd. (TikTok) campaigns lifted early sales of its vacuum cleaners but failed to build awareness or trust, while rivals such as Dyson Holdings Pte Ltd. and Tineco Intelligent Technology Co. Ltd. won with omnichannel distribution and localized marketing. With young professionals and families as target customers, Hsia had to decide whether to double down on digital-only operations or invest in off-line retail and traditional media (such as TV) to reach the half of the market still shopping in stores, with the constraints of uncertain costs, capability gaps, and harder-to-measure outcomes as UWANT sought a North American breakthrough.
