Research on the Impact and Strategies of Digital Marketing and Product Innovation on Interest- Based E-Commerce

In the current shift to interest-based e-commerce, businesses are struggling with higher acquisition costs and homogeneous products. This study utilizes the ADO framework to examine how digital marketing and product innovation catalyze interest-led commerce, emphasizing the mediation of emotional value. We find that digital scenes and emotional product carriers work together to create emotional value, turning consumption into a ritual of healing and identity. By proposing specific pathways for emotional engagement and private domain growth, this paper provides both a theoretical base for future research and practical solutions for surviving saturated markets.
