Fully-Managed / Semi-Managed Cross-Borde Diagram

Strengths

• Proximity to factories, low inventory costs
• Platforms shoulder marketing and traffic investments

Weaknesses

• Low pricing controlled by platforms, thin profit margins
• Lack of brand accumulation and user data

Opportunities

• Dividends from multilingual content coverage in emerging markets
• Semi-managed model allows gradual accumulation of independent operational capabilities

Threats

• Tightening tariff policies on small parcels in the US and Europe
• Homogenization in the fully-managed track compresses profit spaces
