Last week, we had the chance to host our first “How to China workshops” on October 28th.
The Workshop was about “Choosing the right social media channel for your business in China”. It was an hour and a half practical session on the Chinese social media management essentials. This workshop was organized and presented by Kate Chernavina, our Marketing Director and Olivia Liu our Digital Marketing Strategist at HI-COM.
During this workshop, we presented China’s social media landscapes to better understand all the possibilities we have as a company or person to appear on Chinese social media.
We then analyzed the most common daily mistakes that foreign businesses make on Chinese social media.
In fact, when you are not familiar with the country, the culture and especially how the locals communicate, it’s easy to make mistakes and it can be really harmful for the reputation of your brand.
Then, as a foreign company it’s important to be on Chinese Social Media if you want to exist on the Chinese market. This is why we also explained how to choose the right social media channels for your business.
Finally, we presented an overview of a native promotion and marketing tools on WeChat, RED & Weibo which are the most important social media in China.
This workshop was an opportunity to explore and compare different social media platforms in China, learn about platform possibilities, hot topic tracking and more!
We are delighted to have created this club and we hope it can help many people to better understand China, its social media platforms that are not so common in other countries, and its marketing perspective.
