Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Do we need a Chinese company to start marketing?
No. Many international brands start by testing awareness and audience response before setting up a formal local entity. The right approach depends on your goals, category, and whether you are focused on branding, leads, or long-term market entry.
Should we start with Xiaohongshu or WeChat?
It depends on your business model. Xiaohongshu is often the best entry point for consumer-facing brands that need discovery and trust-building, while WeChat is essential for long-term communication, lead nurturing, and many B2B or service-based scenarios.
What budget should we expect for China marketing?
Early-stage projects can start small, but realistic market validation usually sits above simple account setup. Your actual budget depends on whether you need only a platform launch, a structured pilot, or a broader campaign involving media or influencer collaboration.
Do you work with influencers in China?
Yes. We support influencer-led projects when they make sense for the brand and market objective. Some clients come to us specifically for KOL or KOC campaigns, while others use influencer collaboration as part of a broader validation strategy.
Can we start small before committing to a long-term retainer?
Yes. That is exactly how we prefer to work. Our structure is designed to help brands start with a clear first step, test traction, and then decide whether a larger campaign or longer-term support makes sense.
