Shenzhen, China · UTC+8

China market entry, handled on the ground.

Platform accounts, KOL campaigns and compliance for brands entering China. I’m based in Shenzhen — the registrations, the agency meetings and the paperwork all happen here, not in a research deck.

Why local matters

Where remote help breaks down

✕Self-registration blocked

A foreign company usually can’t self-register a Douyin or RED ad account. Verification needs a Chinese entity or a local partner, and when it fails you get a rejection code, not an explanation.

✕Off-platform deals get pulled

Influencer deals in China run through platform marketplaces. Pay a creator off-platform and the post gets pulled — often after you’ve paid.

✕No office, no chase

Filings need an agent who can walk into the office. Someone reading translated guidelines from another timezone can’t chase a rejection through three counters.

Proof

“Sales revenue has grown x3 because of developing marketing channels he’s responsible for. We recommend Zhenming as a professional Digital Marketing Manager in China with full confidence.”
