88 Day China Marketing Challenge
The 88 Day China Marketing Challenge is a collaboration between Think Global Consulting, China Blueprint and Incite Management Group and is supported by ANZ Bank, Austrade,Dynamic Export and the Australian Institute of Export. Between these organisations, we have the skills, services, products and expertise that can support any business in China. What we need is for you to commit to taking the journey with us.
Collaborate
The program will help fast-track those companies who don’t know where to start or don’t have the networks required to infiltrate this immense and diverse market. You get to collaborate, connect and be supported by David Thomas and Lisa Goodhand, a host of other program advisers in both Australia and China and the other challengers who come onboard.
Orientation Tour
One of the highlights of the challenge is the 8 Day Orientation Tour to Hong Kong, Shanghai and Beijing that finishes with a retreat at the foot of The Great Wall.
Competitive Motivation
While the challenge is firstly and fore-mostly a forum for collaboration and support, there's also a competitive edge to it, to keep challengers on track, accountable and motivated to achieve their China vision. One lucky winner will be selected at the final Pitch Day where a panel of China experts will get to review all the plans and achievements and select a winner.
Opportunity
The 88 Day China Marketing Challenge is designed to suit progressive SMEs in the areas of design, technology, creativity, education, the arts, recruitment, healthcare, environmental protection, training, finance and/or professional services (not to mention a host of other world class products, services and expertise!), with a passion for travel, cross-cultural experiences and personal and business growth. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to engage with Australia's largest trading partner and the most populous country in the world!
Cost to participate (select all or one part, its your choice!)
The 88 Day China Marketing Challenge is a three part program which is available either as one fully integrated program or as three individual components. The details are as follows:
Step 1 - Preparation
This is an intensive
focused assistance program comprising:
• 3 x ½ day workshops on key issues
• 9 hours of one-on-one support
During this time you will explore new opportunities and exchange
ideas with a group of like-minded business owners and managers
who all have the same objective; to (a) build their China Market
Entry Plan, and (b) prepare for the 8 Day China Immersion Program
(Step 2).
Step 2 - 8 Day Orientation Tour in China
Come to China with us for 8 days to meet local businesses, experts and entrepreneurs, including business matching sessions and briefings in:
- Hong Kong - a gateway to China
- Zhangjiagang - showcasing a Free Trade Zone
- Shanghai - develop your value proposition for Chinese consumers
- Ningbo - engage with China's private sector at Innovation Valley
- Beijing - navigate the local environment to succeed in China
These are 8 full, interactive and highly business-focused days in China that you won't want to miss!
Step 3 - Market Entry
Above all, our 88 Day China Marketing Challenge is about execution, engagement and results, so we plan to work with our Challengers to ensure that they build on their learnings from Steps 1 and 2 and design, develop and implement a market entry strategy which has a high chance of success. At the end, we will declare a winner - the business which has demonstrated the commitment, innovation, leadership and resolve to succeed in China. An Australian success story which can make us proud, and an example to others of what it takes to succeed in China.
The countdown starts soon. Don't miss out on this opportunity to get serious about China. Tell your friends.
