Q1: I don't have a local subsidiary in China, can I start a business there?
No problem, you do not need a local subsidiary to enter the Chinese market, as BTW's local subsidiary is responsible for closing the sale. The key to success in China is to establish a stable business operation that can manage online and offline platforms, operate multiple distribution channels, and begin selling directly to consumers. BTW assists Japanese companies in establishing and managing local operations to enter the Chinese market until a local subsidiary is available.
Q2: What are the main services you can provide if you do not have a local subsidiary?
BTW's offerings begin with local market research, and can facilitate everything from sales destination identification and negotiation/contracts to back-office employee recruitment, hiring, financial management, logistics and warehouse management, and more. From day one, clients can issue invoices, receive RMB payments, and sign local purchase and sales contracts. Once business has begun, we handle local payments and accounts receivable collections, create and sign local contracts, hire the core local business workers, and manage payroll. On top of that, we provide one-stop support for import and export documentation, customs clearance, product storage, and delivery management.
Q3: I would like to develop sales contacts in China. How long and with what results should I expect?
BTW's market research services are typically completed in 2-3 months. At the end of the process, we will have narrowed down the list of potential clients to 3-5 companies, and depending on the client's needs, we will decide who to contact and begin discussions with. Therefore, we can guarantee that 100% of our clients will be in contact with a company or distributor.
Q4: What are the contract and payment schemes?
Through BTW, you will sign contracts with companies in various cities in China and around the world. The content and procedure of the contract can be left to us. Payment and receipt of payment will also be made through BTW.
Q5: If a product requires a license, can it be sold?
Licenses in China can be broadly divided into cases where the product requires a license and cases where the company itself requires a license. In most cases, licenses have already been obtained, but if a special license is needed, we can apply for an additional license. If your product requires a license, we can help you apply for the corresponding license.
Q6: I want to start e-commerce sales in China, can you support me?
We can help you select the best platform for your business. Because the Chinese e-commerce market is so large, we can assist you in the selection of a platform. We can also support you in setting up an e-commerce store, post-startup operations, shipping arrangements, and handling complaints.
