3 How do I write the WeiCity merchant channel "About" section? Clearly introduce your brand and main services
From brand positioning and service items to inquiry methods, help customers understand your business and whether it suits them.
The "About" section of a merchant channel is an important entry point for customers to learn about your brand and main business. This article explains how to organize a brand introduction, products and services, target customers, business highlights, and inquiry guidance, and provides sample writing to help merchants write channel introductions that are clear, specific, and easy to read.

When customers first enter a WeiCity merchant channel, they usually see the merchant name, brand logo and cover image first.
After reviewing this information, customers may want to learn more about:
๐ช What does this merchant mainly offer?
๐๏ธ What products or services are offered?
๐ฅ Who is this suitable for?
โญ How is it different from other merchants?
๐ Which areas do you serve?
๐ฌ How should I get in touch if I need help?
These are the key questions the โAboutโ section of your merchant channel should answer.
The โAboutโ section of a WeiCity merchant channel is the key area for introducing your brand, main business, business highlights and ways to make enquiries.
A clear โAboutโ section helps first-time customers quickly understand your business, and also lets existing customers review your service information again.
๐ช Brand introduction: let customers know who you are.
๐๏ธ Products and services: explain what you offer.
๐ฅ Target customers: help customers judge whether you suit their needs.
โญ Business highlights: introduce your actual products and service methods.
๐ Brand story: explain your business philosophy and background.
๐ Service area: let customers know which areas you serve.
๐ฌ Contact and enquiries: tell customers what to do next.
A good business introduction does not simply put all your slogans together. It helps customers, after reading, clearly understand what you do, what you can provide and how to contact you further.
The โAboutโ section is an important place for merchants to introduce their business.
The merchant name tells customers what the brand is called.
The brand logo helps customers recognise your store.
However, this information is usually not enough for customers to fully understand your business.
For example:
For example, at an education centre, customers may want to know which courses are offered.
For a repair business, customers may want to know which areas are served.
For a flower studio, customers may want to know whether custom orders are accepted.
For a bakery, customers may want to know which cakes and desserts are available.
All of this information can be explained together in the โAboutโ section.
๐ช Who are you?
๐๏ธ What do you offer?
๐ฅ Who is this suitable for?
โญ What are your practical highlights?
๐ Where do you provide services?
๐ฌ How can customers make further enquiries?
For example:
โWelcome to our store. We provide quality service, and customer satisfaction is our mission.โ
Although it expresses a welcome, it does not explain the specific business.
It can be changed to:
โWe are a bakery located in Penang, mainly offering handmade bread, birthday cakes and party desserts. Customers can ask about cake designs, sizes and booking arrangements based on their actual needs.โ
The second version provides much more useful information.
๐ The main purpose of the โAboutโ section is to help customers understand your business, not just to display promotional text.
The first paragraph of your business introduction is very important.
It is recommended to state your main business first, then add your brand philosophy and business story.
We are [merchant name], located in [area], mainly providing [products or services], serving [target customers or usage needs].
This structure works well as a starting point for most merchants.
โMorning Light Bakery is located in Penang, mainly offering handmade bread, birthday cakes and party desserts, suitable for everyday purchases and celebration orders.โ
โFlower Language Studio is located in Penang, offering birthday bouquets, graduation flower gifts and custom floral design, helping customers choose suitable floral works for different occasions.โ
โPeace of Mind Home Repair provides residential plumbing and electrical repair and general installation services, mainly serving households in designated areas. Please contact us to confirm actual service coverage.โ
โSail Learning Centre provides primary school tuition and study support courses, helping parents understand the learning arrangements for different grades and subjects.โ
โLife Selection Store offers household goods and everyday products, and customers can learn about designs, specifications and purchasing information through product descriptions.โ
The above names and introductions are fictional examples.
For example:
โ Starting with a long brand history.
โ Using a large number of promotional slogans in a row.
โ Failing to state your main products or services.
โ Describing services that are not yet available as if they were already open.
First paragraph: introduce the merchant and main business.
Second paragraph: explain products and services.
Third paragraph: add highlights and business methods.
Finally: provide contact methods.
๐ The clearer the first paragraph, the easier it is for customers to decide whether to keep reading.
If you offer multiple products or services, it is not recommended to write them all in one long paragraph.
You can explain them separately by categories that customers can easily understand.
๐ Everyday Bread
Bread suitable for breakfast, afternoon tea and everyday purchases; actual varieties depend on what is available each day.
๐ Birthday Cakes
Customers can enquire about current cake designs, sizes, prices and ordering arrangements.
๐ง Party Desserts
Suitable for family gatherings and small events; customers can enquire about available options based on the number of guests and date of use.
๐ง Residential Repairs
Residential repair services within our actual scope of business; specific items need to be confirmed based on the problem.
๐ก Equipment Installation
Introduce the installation items currently available and related arrangements.
๐ Service Enquiries
Customers can provide their service area, a description of the problem and necessary photos so the merchant can confirm further details.
๐ Primary School Tuition
Introduce the grades, subjects and course arrangements currently offered.
๐ Study Support
Explain the focus of support, suitable students and the enquiry process.
๐จโ๐ฉโ๐ง Parent Enquiries
Help parents understand class times, fee arrangements and registration procedures.
๐น Birthday Bouquets
Introduce birthday bouquets in different styles and the design directions available.
๐ Graduation Flower Gifts
Showcase floral works suitable for graduation celebrations.
๐จ Custom Floral Design
Based on the services actually provided, explain colours, flower materials and ordering arrangements.
๐๏ธ Item name.
๐ Main content.
๐ฅ Suitable needs.
๐ Necessary booking conditions.
๐ฌ Ways to make further enquiries.
๐ Introducing main products and services separately helps customers quickly find the item they need.
Some merchants clearly state their service names, but customers still do not know whether the service suits them.
Therefore, you can further explain the target customers and usage scenarios.
For example:
โSuitable for households needing residential plumbing and electrical repairs, equipment installation and general maintenance services.โ
For example:
โSuitable for family gatherings, office events and small celebrations.โ
For example:
โProvides study support for specified grade levels and subjects. Parents may first inquire about course content and suitable study arrangements.โ
For example:
โOffers everyday household items, suitable for customers who want to learn about product specifications, uses, and different styles.โ
For example:
โSuitable for individuals and merchants who need brand visual design, promotional images, or related creative services.โ
For example:
โMainly serves designated areas in Penang. Arrangements for other areas can be confirmed in advance.โ
Because customers can judge based on their own circumstances:
๐ฏ Whether the service meets their needs.
๐ Whether the area applies to them.
๐ Whether the timing suits them.
๐ฐ Whether further price inquiries are needed.
For example, education services should not guarantee that all students will achieve the same learning results.
Repair services should also not guarantee that all problems will be resolved before the actual situation has been inspected.
๐ Specifying who the service is suitable for is more useful than a general statement such as "suitable for everyone."
Many merchants like to write in their "About" section:
โQuality first.โ
โBest service.โ
โCustomers come first.โ
These statements can express business philosophy, but they make it hard for customers to understand the actual differences.
It is recommended to describe features through business practices that can be explained and verified.
For example:
๐ฆ Which specifications are available.
๐จ Which color options are available.
๐ Which main materials are used.
๐ Which floral arrangement styles can be chosen.
For example:
๐ช In-store service.
๐ Home visit service.
๐ป Online consultation.
๐ Appointment arrangements.
For example:
โBefore a cake order, we will first confirm the celebration date, expected number of guests, size, and pickup time with the customer.โ
For example:
โProvides home visit services in designated areas of Penang. Specific locations and times must be confirmed in advance.โ
You can introduce:
๐ Actual professional qualifications.
๐ ๏ธ Relevant work experience.
๐ Verifiable service background.
๐ Awards actually received.
General wording:
โWe provide the most professional and considerate cake ordering service.โ
A more specific way to write it:
โBefore you place a cake order, we will confirm your celebration date, expected number of guests, cake size, and pickup arrangements, so you clearly understand the styles available and the ordering conditions.โ
If you introduce certificates, awards, or licenses, use their correct names.
Do not use rankings or professional qualifications that cannot be verified.
๐ Specific service processes and business practices help customers understand a merchant better than slogans alone.
A brand story can make a merchant's introduction more complete.
However, there is no need to include every startup experience.
It is recommended to keep the points that help customers understand the brand.
For example:
โWe hope to make it easy for busy families to prepare suitable desserts for gatherings.โ
For example:
โMany customers are unsure what size to choose when ordering a cake, so we ask about the expected number of guests during consultation.โ
For example:
๐ Clear explanations.
๐ฌ Timely communication.
๐๏ธ Accurate product information.
๐ Confirming actual arrangements.
โMorning Light Bakery hopes to help customers find suitable baked goods for both everyday life and special celebrations.
In addition to handmade bread and desserts, we also value communication before orders.
When customers ask about birthday cakes, we first understand the celebration date, expected number of guests, and style preferences, then provide relevant options based on actual supply.โ
Because it not only explains the business philosophy, but also introduces specific service methods.
Do not fabricate founding years, team backgrounds, customer reviews, or business experience.
๐ The value of a brand story lies in helping customers understand why a merchant operates this way and how these principles are reflected in actual service.
Different merchants may offer services in different ways.
For example:
๐ช Physical store.
๐ Delivery service.
๐ ๏ธ Home visit service.
๐ป Online service.
๐ Appointment-based service.
Therefore, the "About" section can include additional information based on actual business methods.
โWelcome to visit our store to learn about our products. Please refer to the channel's basic information for business hours and the detailed address.โ
โPlease contact us before ordering to confirm the delivery range, fees, and available dates.โ
โProvides home visit services in designated areas. When you make an inquiry, please first state your location and service needs.โ
"Provides online consultation and related services; specific arrangements are subject to the project confirmed by both parties."
โThis studio operates by appointment. Please contact us in advance to confirm a time before visiting.โ
If the merchant has no physical store, or does not accept customers without an appointment, this should be stated clearly.
๐ Clearly explaining service areas and business methods helps customers determine whether it suits their situation.
A complete merchant introduction should finally tell customers what they can do next.
It is not recommended to only write:
โFeel free to contact us.โ
More specific inquiry guidance can be provided based on actual business:
โPlease see our menu. For group dining, please provide the dining date, expected number of guests, and pickup arrangements so we can confirm further.โ
โWhen you make an inquiry, please provide the service area, a description of the issue, and necessary on-site photos so we can confirm the actual service content.โ
โParents are welcome to inquire about courses. Please first state the student's grade level, the subjects of interest, and suitable class times.โ
โWhen inquiring about products, please provide the product name, specifications, and required quantity so we can confirm current availability.โ
โTo order a bouquet, please state the date of use, preferred color scheme, and budget range. We will confirm further based on actual flowers and production arrangements.โ
โTo discuss cooperation, please briefly describe your company or brand background, the direction of cooperation, and related needs.โ
When phone numbers, private addresses, order details, or other sensitive information are involved, communicate through appropriate private channels.
For example:
๐ Phone.
๐ฌ WhatsApp.
๐ง Email.
๐ Currently available contact options.
๐ Clear inquiry guidance can help customers provide more complete information when they first get in touch.
The following is a complete introduction example for a fictional bakery.
Merchants may adjust it according to their actual operations.
Morning Light Bakery is located in Penang and mainly offers handmade bread, birthday cakes, and party desserts, helping customers prepare suitable baked goods for everyday life and celebrations.
Through clear product descriptions and ordering instructions, we hope to make it easier for customers to understand the different food options and confirm actual arrangements before ordering.
Offers breads suitable for breakfast, afternoon tea, and everyday purchases.
Actual styles and available quantities are subject to the in-store situation on the day.
Offers birthday cakes in different styles and sizes.
Customers can inquire about the currently available options based on their celebration date, expected number of guests, and preferred design direction.
Before ordering, we recommend confirming:
๐ Celebration date.
๐ฅ Expected number of guests.
๐จ Preferred style.
๐ Cake size.
๐ฆ Pickup arrangements.
Offers desserts suitable for family gatherings, office events, and small celebrations.
Customers can further inquire about the types and quantities available based on the number of guests and date of use.
We hope customers can clearly understand the product content and actual arrangements before ordering.
Therefore, we confirm the following for each order:
๐๏ธ Product selection.
๐ฆ Required quantity.
๐ฐ Actual price.
๐ Date of use.
๐ Pickup times.
For the detailed address, business hours, and contact details, please refer to the merchant basic information currently shown on the channel.
Welcome to contact us through the channel's contact options to learn about products, styles, and ordering arrangements.
For cakes or party desserts that need advance preparation, we recommend contacting us early to confirm production schedules.

For example:
Restaurants should prioritize explaining their dishes and business information.
Education centers should prioritize explaining their courses and suitable participants.
Repair merchants should prioritize explaining their service scope and booking process.
๐ The About page should focus on actual business arrangements, rather than applying the same template to all industries.
Many customers browse merchant channels on their mobile phones.
Therefore, content should not only be complete but also easy to read.
Avoid putting the brand story, service items, and contact information all in one long paragraph.
For example:
๐ช About Us.
๐๏ธ Main Products.
๐ ๏ธ Service items.
โญ Business Highlights.
๐ฌ Contact and Inquiries.
For example:
๐ Handmade Bread: Introduces the bread selection available daily.

๐ง Party Desserts: Introduces suitable events and quantities.
For example:
๐ Is the font clear?
๐ Are the paragraphs easy to read?

Suggested order:
๐ช Brand and Main Business.
๐๏ธ Products and services.
๐ฅ Suitable Customers.
โญ Business Highlights.
๐ Service coverage.
๐ฌ Contact and Inquiries.
For example:
The About page only needs to briefly introduce repair services.
A detailed booking process can be published separately:
โWhat Information Should You Prepare Before Booking a Residential Repair Service?โ
Emojis can be used to signal topics, but should be used in moderation.
๐ Clear subheadings, independent paragraphs, and appropriate blank lines can help mobile users find the information they need more easily.
A merchant's About page should first be written for customers who genuinely want to learn about the business.
On this basis, clear names, business descriptions, and area information can be used to help readers understand the page's topic.
For example:
โMorning Light Bakeryโ
For example:
"Located in Penang"
For example:
"handmade bread"
"birthday cakes"
โParty Dessertsโ
For example:
โSuitable for family gatherings and small celebrations.โ
Do not repeat the same name many times just to add keywords.
For example, the following repetition is not recommended:
โPenang cake, Penang birthday cake, Penang cake shop, Penang cake orderingโฆโฆโ
It can be written naturally as:
โWe are located in Penang, offering birthday cakes and party desserts. Feel free to contact us in advance about styles and ordering arrangements.โ
For example:
๐ Changes in service areas.
๐๏ธ Product adjustments.
๐ Changes to contact information.
๐ Changes to booking methods.
Whether Google indexes a merchant channel and how a page ranks also depends on website technical settings, content quality, accessibility, and other factors.
๐ Real, clear, and specific business descriptions are an important foundation for serving both customer reading and search content organization.
Yes, it should be checked regularly based on actual business operations.
The About page should reflect the products and services the merchant currently offers.
For example:
A bakery starts offering a new dessert category.
Add an introduction as needed.
For example:
A repair merchant stops providing a certain service.
Delete or update the old description.
For example:
Adding a new delivery range.
Stopping on-site service in a certain area.
For example:
๐ New phone number.
๐ง New email address.
๐ฌ New inquiry channel.
For example:
๐ท๏ธ Brand name change.
๐ Store relocation.
๐ Changes to business hours.
For example:
โStorewide 20% off this weekend only.โ
Time-sensitive information like this is better placed on activity pages or related content pages that are easier to update.
๐ Are the services described still being offered?
๐ Are the area and contact details correct?
๐ฌ After reading, do customers know how to make further inquiries?
๐ The About page does not need to be changed every day, but it should be updated promptly when important business information changes.
It is a content area used to centrally introduce the brand, main business, products, services, and ways to get in touch.
Suggested contents include:
๐ช Merchant introduction.
๐๏ธ Main products and services.
๐ฅ Target customers.
โญ Business Highlights.
๐ Service area.

๐ Reviewing your About section from the customer's perspective before publishing can make it clearer and more useful.

๐ช Who you are.
๐๏ธ What you offer.
๐ฅ Which needs you are suited to.
โญ What practical features you offer.
๐ Where you provide your services.
๐ฌ How to get in touch further.
