Marketing to China
Google Adwords
One way you can target the Chinese market
immediately and with instant results if by using
Google Adwords and setting the
Target Audience to China. Not only can
you
set the target audience to China, but you can also
if you choose, target specific regions, cities or
terrirotities within China and the Chinese mainland.
This is one great way to immediately target the
Chinese market. You only pay if someone specifically
decides to do a certain search and then only if
they then actually make the conscious decision to
click on your ad, thus if you sponsor the right
words and target the right regions, you can do well.

advice from Paul Symonds of ProMarketing Online).
Chinese version of your website
You could put up a Chinese version of the site,
including for example in Mandarin. You need to consider
a few things though including the fact that there
are many spoken languages in China. You might need
to consider what parts of China you are targeting
and what languages they speak in those areas.
You also need to consider the fact that you will
need to be able to answer any replies and you amy
also need to update your site now and again, thus
if you have a Chinese version then think about how
you wil update the site.
Trade Fairs and Exhibitions in China
There are some major trade fairs in China and you
may thus wish to consider, including the gue and
annual Canton
Trade and Exhibition Fair in China. By marketing
directly to the Chinese market, distributors and
public then you will certainly open doors and create
some ideas and opportunities.
