Balloon items have the largest market share and the best reviews. Large packs of latex balloons, foil number balloons, and arch sets have been bestsellers on both platforms for a long time. “Color, durability, and leak resistance” are the most important things to users.
The main picture or scene image affects the conversion rate. Successful items usually include a product image with a white backdrop that shows the features of the product and a scene or usage image that demonstrates how it’s utilized and styled. The platform’s category pages show these traits quite plainly.
Sets and themed sets have higher average order values. One-stop packages that include balloons, banners, dinnerware, and other items have greater conversion rates, especially during holidays like New Year’s and kids’ birthdays.
Most user reviews are about leaks or damage, missing pieces, and hard-to-follow installation instructions. When launching a new product, make sure the packaging is safe, there is a full list of parts, and the installation instructions are easy to follow.
Eco-friendly and paper items are a way to stand out. Paper honeycomb decorations and other paper ornaments are becoming more popular on both platforms, which might be a way to set your party supplies apart.
