Recur Toy CreatioConcept Makes Chinese Toy Brands More Impressive

For a long period of time in the past, our domestic brands have lived under the impact of "foreign brands", brand influence and product quality have not been generally recognized by Chinese. However, as China has developed into the world's second largest economy in recent years, domestic enterprises have paid more and more attention to innovation strength, and their investment in innovation has continued to increase. The development of various industries has achieved remarkable results, and various domestic "new forces" have emerged, including the children's toy industry known as the "Evergreen Tree". According to the survey data jointly released by China Toys and Baby Products Association and GfK , China’s toy market accounted for 13% of the global market in 2017, with a scale of 60.7 billion. In addition, according to the data forecast of the China Investment Consulting Industry Research Center, from 2018 to 2022, the annual compound growth rate of China's toy market is about 9.16%, and by 2022, the toy market will reach 93.7 billion yuan. 　　 The performance of China’s toy market is gratifying, the market development space is huge, and the market growth rate is much higher than the world's growth rate for 2%-4%. At the same time, we also clearly realize that although the China’s toy market is large, it has always been occupied by international brands, and the market share of domestic brand toys is relatively low. There are two main reasons for this: First, domestic toy brands lacked independent technical support and connotation filling in the past, resulting in insufficient core competitiveness. The second is the lack of originality and insufficient innovation investment as support. What is gratifying is that with the advancement of original ability and originality awareness, a "new force" in the toy industry, represented by Recur toys, has emerged in China, with richer connotations and more impressive high-quality products to improve the image of the domestic toy brand. Enhance Brand Connotation, Build Ecological Content Recur Toys mainly focuses on the mid-to-high-end simulation educational toy market. Our products include prehistoric series, wild series, marine series, and farm series. The product types are rich and diverse, and it continues to develop new products to meet the needs of the Chinese and international markets to enhance brand connotation. 　　 For parents, when choosing toy products for their children, in addition to considering the play experience of the toy itself, it is also necessary to comprehensively consider the cognitive gains that the toy brings to the child. Recur is committed to allowing children to gain more in the process of playing. It has always paid attention to product ecological construction, attracting and retaining children's attention through rich ecological content. Across China, we have jointly launched a series of animal science tour exhibitions with a number of cultural and creative brands, animal theme museums, and chain toy brands, which not only satisfied children's curiosity about nature and animals, but also enhanced children's interest in exploration and cognition. . 　　　　(Figure: Recur's past popular science activities) Self-built Factory to Fully Guarantee Quality For any brand, the product is the lifeblood, and the same is true in the toy industry. Only with a comprehensive system of independent research and development, supply chain, manufacturing, quality and cost control can we continue to provide customers and consumers with high-quality products. In these aspects, Recur is at the forefront of my country's toy industry again. In order to provide better toy products for children around the world and comprehensively ensure product quality, Recur Toys built our own factory, established R&D and supply chain systems, introduced elite talents and global advanced equipment, created an efficient and stable production team, then realized the quality control of toys from the source. Our toys have passed EU CE certification, American ASTM certification, China 3C certification, and comprehensively help products to go to a broader domestic and international market. After landing on the moon, Armstrong said :"That's one small step for me, but one giant leap for civilization." Recur Toys has worked hard and continued to explode, which is also conducive to enhancing the image of domestic toy brands in the minds of consumers. It can be said that every step of Recur Toys is a big step forward for domestic toy brands.

Tiktok is rapidly becoming a new force in the toy marketing industry after the epidemic

According to the latest market report of "Business Insider", in the next few years, TikTok will be on par with YouTube as the main platform for toy marketing. TikTok is rapidly becoming a force in the toy industry, and more and more companies continue to invest time and effort into TikTok-specific marketing campaigns. 　　 Want to get orders from TikTok Since the outbreak of the 2020 epidemic, toy companies such as Zuru Toys and MGA Entertainment have used influencer marketing campaigns and original content combinations to increase TikTok’s engagement and strive to use TikTok to take orders. Zuru Toys' mini-brand line is now at its "strongest point," continuing to grow every week thanks to its TikTok marketing efforts. While the toy company is making videos of more attractive and featured toys, the company said that the promotion on TikTok is not technically an advertisement because the social media platform does not allow "marketing advertising to children." TikTok downloads second only to Apple downloads in 2020 According to the latest data from sensortower.com, in November 2020, TikTok attracted more than $123 million in the global App Store and Google Play, and TikTok’s downloads are second only to Apple’s downloads. Although the TikTok platform has experienced a turbulent year and was urgently suspended by the US Department of Commerce, TikTok is still developing rapidly and has become the main track for technology stocks in the capital market. 　　 According to mobile analytics firm App Annie, TikTok could reach 1.2 billion average monthly active users by 2021. All eyes, and the potential for future growth, has made the short-form video-sharing app a popular destination for industries looking to base their marketing campaigns on new toys. Marketing of children's toys is still limited However, the topic of toys being advertised on social media is somewhat complicated by TikTok's policy that ads "marketing specifically to children" are not permitted, and the TikTok social platform has violated the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act in the past (COPPA). In order to comply with age restrictions on personal information collection, TikTok currently does not allow users under the age of 13, and anyone younger can join the app through the "TikTok for younger users" setting. In addition, a New York Times report stated that in the United States, more than one-third of TikTok's daily users are 14 or younger. Tik Tok vs YouTube Toy companies are currently not creating actual ads for their toys on TikTok. Instead, the companies are creating TikTok-friendly content and events, based on the new toys. As explained by Jamie Gutfreund, CMO of toy company MGA Entertainment, the most important thing is to create engaging videos for the growing TikTok audience. Despite the widespread recognition of TikTok's boom, YouTube is still standing firm in the toy marketing industry up the heel. According to a survey of parents and grandparents by data analytics firm NPD Group, advertising accounts for 9 percent of toy sales, social media platforms about 11 percent and word of mouth about 16 percent. The majority of the remaining respondents indicated that there are no external reasons for buying toys. 　　 Juli Lennett, vice president and industry consultant for the NPD Group's U.S. toy division, said YouTube remains the most dominant platform influencing toy purchases and interest, especially among children under the age of 8, which is the dominant age group for toy sales. Lennett said MGA Entertainment and its "LOL Surprise" brand have positioned themselves as "innovators" in the use of social media. Like other toy makers, MGA Entertainment is currently prioritizing its YouTube and TikTok sales equally. MGA has a dedicated marketing team dedicated to producing original TikTok content, but the implicit marketing of “LOL Surprise” on TikTok also includes the introduction of influential marketing partners. Gutfreund believes that TikTok toy marketing is still in its infancy, but it is growing rapidly and still needs to be navigated. One of the reasons TikTok and YouTube are memorable is that they give you more flexibility and an effective platform. However, whether the future of toy marketing is entirely up to TikTok remains uncertain, largely because of the rapidly changing media landscape and the potential for a new social media platform. The future potential of toy marketing on TikTok Despite YouTube's prominence in toy marketing, industry insiders believe TikTok will compete with YouTube in the next two to three years. TikTok's platform allows toy companies to launch new types of marketing campaigns that have never been used on a large scale. Toy companies say original content that is fun, dynamic, and authentic will appeal to a younger target audience.

Friends who follow Recur's news should have the impression that on Children's Day this year, we participated in public welfare activities organized by Shenzhen Charity Association and Shenzhen Toy Industry Association, sending sick children their favorite toys. So this is not the first time, nor will it be the last time, to pay attention to charity and public welfare and undertake corporate social responsibility, Recur is always on the way. 　　 The store's "viral toys" come in a wide variety of styles, colors and sizes, and Jimeno hopes that, over time, the tiny vectors that have kept the world behind bars will not be forgotten, and that people will be able to use a kind of A lighthearted and humorous approach to current dilemmas. "Until this health crisis shows its most hideous face, we don't know where everything will go, we can only play a joke and put 'coronavirus' on the shelves." Jimeno said. Over time, the toys also took on a deeper meaning, as the owner decided to donate a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the toys to the NGO Save the Children, which helps children severely affected by the health crisis. "It's one of the best-selling plush toys this Christmas," Jimeno said. The "coronavirus" plush toys sold in the store come in three sizes, the largest of which is bigger than a football and the most popular, and the smallest that can be carried around as a keychain.

The report said Jimeno's toy store was doing well this Christmas, although she also feared bad things due to the epidemic and the previous move to a new location.
