Strategy & insights
If one thing can be said about the Chinese market, it is that it is completely different than what we are used to in the West. Especially when we talk about the digital ecosystem. The Chinese digital ecosystem has developed in isolation from the rest of the world because of the Great Firewall. This has allowed a plethora of Chinese platforms to thrive and cater specifically to the needs and wants of the Chinese users.
Beyond the digital world, China is a huge and diverse country. Entering China and doing business in China requires a different approach than entering another Western market. Brand awareness is likely low to non-existant and reaching critical mass in China can be difficult.
We are here to help you figure out how to navigate the pitfalls and challenges of the Chinese market. Each brand is different and requires a tailored approach. We are channel and platform agnostic. Your success in the Chinese market is our only objective.
