Digital Marketing Helps Two-way Cross-border E-commerce (Interview with AsiaPac)The advantages of Hong Kong being a free economy and an international city are fully reflected in the business model of AsiaPac, a cross-platform digital marketing solution provider based in Hong Kong.

Noticing the rapid growth of cross-border e-commerce, Daniel Chan, a co-founder of AsiaPac, seized the opportunity to provide integrated digital marketing in Greater China.  As one of the early authorised resellers in Hong Kong for Google and Yahoo, AsiaPac has helped many Hong Kong and overseas brands such as SaSa and AUSupreme tap into the mainland market through online advertising campaigns and cross-platform digital marketing. "Mainland consumers are pleased to be able to gain access to quality products via a trusted online platform," said Chan.

"There are many advantages of setting up a company in Hong Kong to work with overseas advertising partners – the absence of valued-added tax is only one of them," said Chan. "With our years of experience in different markets and our strong local network, we are able to help clients identify relevant advertising channels, be it global or local platforms, for their advertising campaigns. We also help overcome language and cultural barriers, which are major challenges posed by cross-border e-commerce."

Apart from search engine marketing (SEM) and display network advertising, Chan believes it is also important for a digital marketing solution provider to help cross-border e-commerce players maximise their social-media power, as good use of social media can attract traffic to websites, facilitate interaction with customers and, ultimately, convert traffic to sales.

In China, home-grown social media such as WeChat, Sina Weibo, Tencent QQ and Youku are flourishing," said Chan. "Mainland consumers enthusiastically share opinions, discuss brands and offer advice on social media. More than half of Chinese netizens have actively participated in online discussions about companies or brands. Engagement of social media in China is among the most intense in the world, and it has become deeply integrated into people's lives, more than in many other countries. Enterprises intending to enter the e-commerce market in mainland China should learn about its unique digital landscape and have a social-media strategy in place.   
             
"It would be a big mistake to regard China as one market. Cultural and language gaps exist even in Chinese-speaking areas, especially in the use of internet catchphrases, in-jokes and slang on social media. When engaging a digital-marketing agency for the Greater China market, the client has to make sure that the agency has a local team which understands the local culture and language in different markets. To serve clients operating in different regions, we hire employees speaking local languages to ensure delivery of marketing messages in the most localised way."
