Doing Business in China – Why You Need to Learn Chinese

There are a lot of fantastic tips in this video. It’s very much worth the 4 minutes and 47 seconds it takes to watch this one.

 

 

Key Points From my Perspective

1. Learn how to say and respond to greetings in Mandarin Chinese. “It will open hearts.”

2. Learn proper business card etiquette

3. Stand up with authority when giving your presentation.

4. Convey respect for Chinese people and the Chinese way.

5. Learn Chinese :) Of course we’d love to help!

They did not cover the concept of relationships.  This is a key concept to understand and understand well if you want to succeed in China.
