We had the privilege of joining a deep dive session on how to succeed in cross border eCommerce, as part of Asialink Business' The China Digital Economy Academy program. Here are our Senior Sales & Marketing Associate Vivian Wei's key takeaways from the panellists involved (including our CEO Will Zhao) on entering the Chinese market: 1⃣ Start with thorough market research and strategy before engaging with distributors. 2⃣ Diversify your market focus—consider opportunities not only in China but also in other countries. 3⃣ Patience is key—commit to at least a 3-year trial period when entering the Chinese market for long-term success. 4⃣ Assess your assets and build strong relationships. Understand your IP and what margins you can offer to distribution channels. 5⃣ Financial readiness is crucial, especially for new brands. Develop a consistent funding and engaging marketing plan, as competition is fierce. 6⃣ Invest in understanding the culture, not just in terms of trademarks but also cultural nuances and education. China's digital economy continues to evolve rapidly, so do feel free to contact us to ensure your business is staying up to date! #ecommerce #china #export

I had the pleasure of attending a SEAkers event on 15 June 2024, which shed light on the evolving business landscape in China and Singapore, and pathways for professional growth. Here are my 3 key takeaways: 1.      Trust is built on personal connections, not just data. 2.      Success comes from selecting the right market trends to follow. For example, Luckin Coffee has capitalised on the digital revolution by creating a digital ordering system that streamlines operations and reduces costs, carving out a niche business model that differentiates them from competitors like Starbucks. 3.      A global business strategy starts from understanding political and cultural nuances from the ground up. In this regard, “Seeing the Unseen” (a book co-authored by today's guest speaker) illustrates this by highlighting how Chinese tech leaders have applied lessons from China’s historical and cultural legacies to succeed in the global market. These insights resonate deeply with my journey in Law, reinforcing my commitment to understanding clients’ needs and fostering meaningful collaborations. Looking forward to more such discussions!
