Is your business seeking to grow in China?
As an already established business in China, the main problem remains - where and how do I grow my revenues and/or profits?
Marketing is the most important tool for growth. It involves product development, sales, communications and smart pricing and distribution of products and services to customers.
It is also the single most difficult business task to solve. There are no easy answers, especially in a highly competitive and huge market like China.
We at Waitan have helped our customers in China for years. Through these experiences, we have created an overall framework for business growth through marketing. Furthermore, we have programmed this framework into a multi-phased project, where we explore the opportunities and barriers for growth, identify potential problems and how to solve them, and finally, come up with a concrete action plan to enable growth in the Chinese market.

Step 4: Sustainable Growth
Growth in a series of successful small steps and small wins that aim for long term growth. It is crucial to remember some actions that might not be feasible in the short term but are critical in the long-term. It is also important to remember that temporary short term failures do not impact potential long-term gains.
