Your attempts to connect have floundered; you’re not sure how to make an impact.


Imitating an approach that has worked elsewhere can appear inauthentic. To succeed, you need to build your campaign with an in-depth understanding of the market, placement on pivotal platforms like Weibo and WeChat, and native language support every step of the way.

Problems Chinese Marketing solves

Cultural disconnect

Your campaigns need to drive to a Chinese page — with a cohesive aesthetic and the correct language — to keep your audience engaged. 

Missing pieces

You need insight into the available platforms and tactics to ensure that you’re on the right channels the right way.

An unknown market

Without market-specific insights and competitor research, you can’t find the right audience for future remarketing.

Common questions you might have about Chinese Marketing

Culture doesn’t really translate. To succeed, you need to adjust for this audience’s frame of reference and create campaigns that speak directly to them.

We can provide benchmarks that compare English and Chinese market campaigns, along with examples of what a successful North American Chinese campaign looks like.

Although there are similarities, you’ll face specific complexities and regulations when planning for launch. With certifications or partnerships with Sina, Tencent, and Baidu, we can help you get ahead of these hurdles for a smooth setup.

As part of your kickoff, we’ll perform an industry assessment and interview to assess your options. You'll receive a picture of your ability to comply with Chinese policies and which platforms are open to you before you decide to get underway.

You want to put your best foot forward for a new audience.

Is the Chinese Market unknown territory for your brand?

You may have a sense of the market but no idea of your first steps. An experienced agency partner helps build the foundation you need — we know the right accounts, platform contacts, and vendors to build a strong relationship with your audience.

Has your existing content failed to produce results?


Even with strong English content, a direct-translation approach can lead to underwhelming returns. You need a partner with the experience and resources for a holistic strategy, with tested advice to help your brand succeed now and in the future.
