WeChat Official Account Manager

A WeChat Official Account is often the closest thing a brand has to an owned channel in China, but most accounts stagnate into a broadcast list nobody opens. This service rebuilds the content strategy, menu structure, and subscriber engagement mechanics (welcome flows, interactive replies, mini-program links) so the account actually drives retention and conversion rather than just existing as a compliance checkbox. It's built for brands operating in China that need their Official Account to function as a real relationship and conversion channel, not a dormant subscriber list.

This is a capability we deliver for you as a service, not a role we’re hiring for.

How We’d Approach This

A clear, staged plan, not a black box

These are the service-specific steps inside our six-step process.

1
Diagnose current subscriber engagement, open rates, and menu/flow structure
2
Pilot a revised content cadence and automated welcome/reply flow with a subset of content
3
Review open, click, and retention metrics against the previous baseline
4
Operate the account on an ongoing publishing and engagement cadence
