Marktonderzoek en partner search in China: de belangrijkste tips & tricks.
Heeft uw onderneming ambities in China? Voka helpt u op weg om de Chinese markt te leren kennen en u zo goed mogelijk voor te bereiden.
Veel westerse bedrijven met ambities in China hebben beperkte mankracht en financiële mogelijkheden en besteden vaak niet veel aandacht aan marktonderzoek of het screenen van hun potentiële Chinese partners. Het is echter cruciaal om er de markt en de manier van zakendoen te begrijpen, de wensen van uw klanten maar ook de aanwezigheid van eventuele concurrenten, hun producten of diensten, hun prijsstrategie, distributiekanalen, marketing,... Een gebrekkige voorbereiding kan foute verwachtingen creëren en de keuze van een verkeerde Chinese partner kan dramatische gevolgen hebben.
Tijdens dit seminarie zal u inzicht krijgen in eenvoudige en goedkope manieren om de Chinese markt te leren kennen waardoor u er uw potentieel beter kunt inschatten en een betrouwbare strategie kunt bepalen. Tegelijkertijd zal uitgelegd worden hoe u Chinese partners, distributeurs of leveranciers kunt zoeken en screenen en hoe u met hen kunt onderhandelen. Dit zal geïllustreerd worden met concrete voorbeelden uit de praktijk.
Inschrijven voor deze infosessie kan via deze link.
Doelgroep: dit seminarie is uitermate geschikt voor bedrijfsleiders, exportmanagers en international sales managers.
