2026 Small and medium-sized enterprises 'domestic trade customer acquisition practice: use AI to reduce inquiry costs to 30-50 yuan

Core conclusions:In 2026, small and medium-sized enterprises will do domestic trade without setting up their own Short Video team and investing huge amount of advertisements. AI tools can accurately reach local buyers on platforms such as chattering and Baidu, so as to reduce inquiry costs.

1. Why is the cost of obtaining customers in traditional domestic trade getting higher and higher?

In 2026, the cost of a single clue for Baidu bidding has risen to 200-500 yuan. It takes more than 3 months for Douyin to make its own account to start the volume. Most factories cannot afford this time and cost.

By using AI tools to proactively reach out, directly screening local customers with recent purchasing needs on platforms such as Douyin, Fast Hand, and Baidu, and proactively contacting, the cost of a single inquiry can be reduced to 30-50 yuan.

2. How to operate it specifically?

1.Set target customers: Enter your product, target industry, and region, such as "Cangzhou Hardware Factory, find a local machinery factory in Hebei to purchase hardware parts."

2.AI automatically screens customers: The system screens customers who have recently posted relevant purchasing needs from major Short Video platforms and search engines every day and compiles them into a list.

3.Automatic reach and follow-up: Direct customers to your WeChat through private messages, reply in the comment area, and automatic follow-up of retention.

3. Actual data from a local hardware factory

Cangzhou A local hardware factory used this method for the first month:

• Actively reach 1200 local precision buyers
• Add 180 people to WeChat
• Received 62 valid inquiries
• 3 transactions were completed, with a refund of 120,000 yuan

(The above actual data in this case will vary among different industries and regions and do not represent a general commitment.)

4. What kind of factory is suitable for use?

• A company with its own factory and doing B-end wholesale
• Products suitable for local and surrounding areas sales
• I don't want to raise my own Short Video team or pay high advertising fees

If your company meets the above points, you can usually see preliminary feedback within 1 month.

5. Three implementation points for attracting customers in domestic trade

• Content should be professional, not entertaining: B-end customers look at technology, production capacity, and quality inspection, not paragraphs.
• The clues must be followed that day: The B-side procurement decision cycle is long, but the first response speed directly affects the order completion rate.
• Settle into the private domain: Add traffic from Douyin and Baidu to WeChat for long-term operations. Repurchases and reintroductions are the sources of profits.
