CNfans spreadsheets offer a powerful way to track and analyze these demand trends efficiently. By leveraging the data from Reddit posts and comments, you can identify high-demand products and capitalize on group buying opportunities.
Step 1: Gather Reddit Data
Start by collecting discussions from Subreddits like /r/FashionReps, /r/RepLadies, or /r/Flexicas, where users frequently request group buying services. Tools like PushShift
Step 2: Organize with CNfans Spreadsheet
Use a CNfans Spreadsheet
- Products mentioned (brand, item, price expectations)
- Time/date of posts
- Geographic details (e.g., shipping destinations).
Label columns to sort data by demand frequency, user engagement (upvotes/comments), or emerging keywords.
Step 3: Identify Trends with Filters
Apply spreadsheet filters (e.g., pivot tables, conditional formatting) to pinpoint:
- Top requested brands
- Seasonal spikes
- Under-served markets
Example: A surge in "Loewe Puzzle Bag" posts may indicate untapped demand.
Step 4: Validate with Google Trends
Cross-check findings with Google TrendsBaidu Index

By combining Reddit insights with CNfans spreadsheets, resellers can proactively source high-demand items, optimize inventories, and tailor marketing strategies for group buying audiences.
