Why I Wrote This Book
Communication and Trust are the key words to succeed in China.
Your chance here is tiny if you do not understand Chinese consumers.
I included several real life stories to reveal how the online shopping changed life here in China. I also interviewed a dozen Chinese online shoppers to understand what they are thinking, what they are buying, what are their concerns and what are the most annoying experiences.
This book will help you:
- Create your own step by step China market entry strategy.
- Understand the history, evolution and current situation of import eCommerce in China.
- Find out who are the major players in the market and who might be your potential partners.
- Discover the needs and wants of Chinese cross-border consumers and understand their behaviors.
- Localize your web store and turn Chinese visitors into real buyers.
I help overseas business owners analyze their business opportunities in China, draft the market entry strategy and develop the sales network.
You don’t need to invent the wheels, just learn from the wisdom from others.
You can find many guidelines and tips in the book. They will help you understand Chinese culture better, and avoid common mistakes made by many other foreign merchants.
Drop me a line and let me know your insights after reading the book.
Good luck with your business in China and Happy Selling!
