Product Selection
This walks you through picking products to sell on Xiaohongshu using a four-factor framework: market demand, competition analysis, profitability, and supply chain reliability. You get specific benchmarks like targeting 40%+ gross margins, looking for under 20 direct competitors, and validating 1000+ monthly searches. The implementation section shows you how to scrape Xiaohongshu search data, count competitors manually, and build cost breakdowns that include platform fees and return allowances. It's opinionated about what constitutes saturation (over 50 competitors is a red flag) and walks through the math on break-even analysis. Use this when you're starting out or your current product mix isn't converting, skip it if you already have proven sellers.

Core Pattern
Before (guessing what will sell):

❌ "Everyone's selling this, I should too"
❌ "Low price means high sales, right?"
❌ "I'll just copy competitors' products"
