Gina, Helen and I just came back from our Shanghai trip. While, Dhon and Chips will battle lonely winter nights in Guangzhou next week (I hope they'll pack thermal suits).

We are very passionate in making China our second home, as strong as our Manila home base.
We are on our product strategy+operations+government relations strategy mode, hopefully by our next trip on February, we can deal more of our operations and human resources.

Business Card for China

Wednesday, November 24, 2010

Since we are now approaching the 2nd steps in our China Project, we will now be engaging in more meetings with distributors, etc. I suggest to have ourselves equipped with a business cards with Chinese characters. This will be very helpful in meetings, introductions, presentation of the company, and as a good first (and lasting) impression for prospective partners and counterparts in China.
Chinese are obsessed with (job) Titles and business cards, and we should be ready with one. Let us also familiarize ourselves with proper handling and presentation of the card at the start and during business meetings. It may sound absurd and frivolous, but that's how they do it in China.

We should have one side of our business card in Chinese. That includes the Chinese name/characters for Dragon Edge Group as a company name.

Our Names in Chinese,  job title as well, we may change it to make easier to understand in Chinese.

Sample:

(1) Name of the person

Vice President, Marketing is translated as (2), the term we think best among several possible translations.

It is often not necessary to translate the entire address. To give Chinese readers an idea of your business location, (3) Mei Guo (U.S.A.) Bin Zhou (PA) is used. In Chinese, the correct order for address is from general (U.S.A.) to specific (PA).

(4) is telephone. The character (5) indicates a phone extension.

(6) is fax. Email address and website.


Additional Info:

Gold colored lettering is considered auspicious in this country, so natives prefer business cards printed in gold ink. To impress your new acquaintance, include your name and title and if your company is the largest or oldest, add it to the information. Always give your card first before asking someone else’s.


Business card is like the personal carrying geomantic omen(Fung Shue) that can be mirroring your business operation situation, business ability and state of development of future. We can not ignore its efficacious motive force.
 
The study of Fortune Business Card is from by Chinese Astrology, Fung Shui and Yi Jing numerology. A good design fortune business card can empower your career and business ability and increase your wealth and reputation.


Common Feng Shui mistakes on business cards:

1.  Company's name and Name are separated by lines
- interpretation: Discontented with company; centripetal force is insufficient

2. Addition of Frame around the business card
-business limitation, difficulty to break through

3. Person's name on central position of the card
- a lot of work to handle,  pressured and trouble some

4. Logo or graphics with sharp lines  or angle/s pointing to the company logo or person's name
- company reputation damaged, or person to have bloody accident

5. Cluttered or complicated design; wordy; crowded
- No marketing result; pay more effect and gain less; (bad) influence in business expansion
