Magnetic Couplets: Non-traditional gourd-shaped designs with cute horse motifs and magnetic backing for easy application on metal surfaces—one example ranked #1 on a major platform's "Spring Festival Decoration Add-to-Cart" list
"Fortune" Characters: Evolving from simple cardboard to velvet-like materials that are easy to apply and fade-resistant
Emotional Appeal: Products themed around "prosperity" and "fortune," alongside office-worker self-deprecating humor, are gaining significant traction among younger demographics.
