SUMMARY
The Chinese community perceived Mudah.my as a second-hand marketplace and avoided shopping on it during Chinese New Year festival. To fight this cultural taboo, we turned a common saying in Hokkien into a catchy phrase - 'Hoeeki' (Let It Go), asking consumers to let go of their old items on Mudah.my to receive greater blessings in return. In a season of buying, we focused on selling! 'Hoeeki' garnered 5 million views, turned a three-year trend of decline in listings into a 7% increase and became a flagship property for the brand.
