Must-Know Tips for Xiaohongshu Seeding

1. Is Xiaohongshu’s “Crowd Backflow Model” Just a Strategy or a Product Feature?

Xiaohongshu has been emphasizing its “Crowd Backflow Model”, but is it merely a strategic approach, or does it actually have productized capabilities?

Xiaohongshu “LingXi” Offers an Established Product Feature

On Xiaohongshu LingXi, there is an existing product feature that supports this approach. By using the “Insight – Crowd – Crowd Recommendation” function, you can select a seed audience and receive prioritized and layered crowd recommendations.

How to Select a Seed Audience?

  • It is recommended to use existing product/loyal customer data, collaborate with external data sources, or leverage store visitor data.
  • Manual selection of audience tags is also possible.

2. How to Allocate Your Budget Effectively?

When implementing Xiaohongshu’s Product Seeding Strategy (KFS), smart budget allocation is key to maximizing exposure. Here’s how you can optimize it using Xiaohongshu Linglu:

  • Use Industry Benchmarks

Leverage Linglu’s “Industry Benchmark” tool to analyze top brands’ penetration rates across audience segments, helping you set realistic goals.

  • Data-Driven Budget Allocation

3.What is the Relationship Between AIPS Audience Asset Model and Crowd Backflow Model?

The Xiaohongshu AIPS Audience Asset Model measures audience influence depth, based on Kotler’s 5A Theory, which tracks users from seeding (Awareness) to purchase decisions. At each stage, audience clusters accumulate, forming brand or SKU audience assets.

AIPS Audience Asset Model Breakdown:

  • A (Awareness):I know this product.
  • I (Interest):This product attracts me.
  • T (True Interest):I want to learn more and consider buying.
  • P (Purchase):I bought this product.
  • S (Share):I share my experience with others.

The Crowd Backflow Model helps brands scale audience reach, reflecting audience influence expansion. Each layer in the Crowd Backflow Model (Core, High-Potential, and Broad Audience) follows the AIPS framework to drive organic growth and conversion.
