Business development in China

Once the decision to be in China is made, growth comes from the number of qualified conversations you can hold there. We create and run those conversations on your behalf.

Client meeting with a large Chinese state-owned enterprise

Overview

Chinese counterparts, particularly large enterprises and state-owned groups, do not move on cold email. Meetings come from the local network, from being present at the right industry events, and from someone able to follow up in Chinese the week after.

We build that network as an asset that belongs to you: named companies, named contacts, meeting records and a follow-up log you keep whether or not you continue with us.

Questions

Business development in China — frequently asked

Do you work on commission?

The core engagement is a retainer, because network building takes months before it produces revenue. Performance elements can be added once a pipeline exists.

Can you represent us at a fair without us attending?

Yes. We staff stands and run the conversations in Chinese, then hand over a qualified lead report. Several clients work this way every year.
