FAQ

Common Questions

  • Our brand isn't on any Chinese platforms yet. Where should we start?

    We usually start with a short market entry review — understanding your audience, category and objectives — before recommending which platforms and content to prioritize first.

  • Can an international brand operate an account on Xiaohongshu and similar platforms?

    Yes. Many international brands run official accounts on Chinese platforms. We handle setup, positioning, content and ongoing management.

  • What's the difference between KOL and KOC marketing?

    KOLs are larger creators with broad reach; KOCs are smaller, more relatable creators whose content often reads as personal recommendation rather than advertising. We combine both depending on the objective.

  • How can hotels, restaurants or overseas stores attract Chinese travelers?

    Through content and search visibility that reaches travelers while they're still researching and planning — before they book or arrive.

  • How does WeChi decide the scope and timeline of a project?

    We discuss your brand, objectives and current stage, then propose a scope and timeline that fits — whether that's a focused sprint or ongoing operation.
