Explore, Create, Discover.
We approach work with the mantra of “探索 (explore)，创新 (create)，发现 (discover),” and believe in constant innovation and data-based analysis. This is implemented in our bi-weekly sprints, where we generate many new ideas, implement them, then analyze as a team.
Be truthful.
We believe in being truthful with our team members, clients, and the people who see our marketing materials. We share all of the documentation and reporting data transparently, then discuss problems and opportunities very openly.
Work smart, not long.
Why do so many companies in the marketing industry work such long hours, even when evidence points to it reducing overall effectiveness? Sane working hours, a good salary, and a rewards system tied to results are core elements to our success. These allow us to work smart—with clear processes and scrum-like sprints.
Be the bridge between cultures.
Every member of our team continuously strives to improve their understanding of other languages and cultures. We also help clients and online fans understand Chinese culture through our blog, newsletter, and YouTube videos.
Tait is from Edmonton, Canada, and first came into contact with the Chinese language in high school. At that time, China was seen more as the world’s factory, rather than as a source of consumers. We could say he saw the business potential, but that’s only half-true. Really, he mostly just liked the opportunity to interact with people in a very different language and culture.
In 2002, Tait started his first online business while in school, buying video game accessories from China and reselling in North America. He later came to Nanjing as a study abroad student as part of his Bachelor of Commerce degree from University of Alberta. There he met his Nanjingese girlfriend, who is now his wife.
Since founding Nanjing Marketing Group in 2008, Tait has overseen more than 100 client projects. He has a broad range of marketing skills including strategy, digital analytics & team formation as well as search marketing, SEO & content marketing. He oversees partnerships and our team of account managers.
Tait splits his time between China and Canada. He lives with his wife and two daughters.
