In short, this means you’ll have a higher chance of succeeding and the ability to grow faster.
But what does this mean for you in practical terms? Let’s break it down.
Reach an Optimal Strategy Faster
Our approach involves taking your existing strategy, refining it to align with Chinese market dynamics, and implementing it effectively.
Using a lean process, we will continuously improve your strategy based on real market feedback.
Drive Attention With Targeted Advertising
Using highly targeted ads on major Chinese platforms such as Baidu, WeChat, and Xiaohongshu, you’ll attract people who want what you provide.
We understand the importance of precision targeting.
Businesses of all sizes trust us to manage their ads proactively, so they don’t need to.
Convert More Website Visitors
You provide the source web content, and we’ll give you a persuasive, polished Chinese-language website.
Feel free to forget about the details of hosting, government regulations, and Baidu SEO. That’s all taken care of.
We’ll even pre-qualify leads via real-time chat, increasing the quantity and quality of leads.
Earn The Trust of Your Future Customers
Legal and regulatory services can be complex. Before your future clients are ready to buy, they’ll need to learn about your company and how you can help solve their problems. They will need to trust you.
We’ll “transcreate” your English source content into articles and videos. After that, we’ll share this transcreated content on your Chinese website, the super-app WeChat, and the Q&A platform Zhihu.
You’ve already established yourself as a credible expert within your niche, and we’re going to make that known to Chinese buyers, regardless of where they seek information.

Chinese Legal Services Marketing FAQ
Overall, legal services are not heavily regulated. You can use Baidu, WeChat, and Xiaohongshu for advertising and organic content marketing. However, some parts are still restricted, such as law firms, investment, and immigration.
To advertise on Baidu, you must provide a digital version of your business license (certificate of incorporation) and a screenshot of your bank statement (transaction amounts can be obscured using mosaic). If you are a law firm, you will be required to provide law firm credentials.
Services related to immigration cannot be advertised on WeChat and Xiaohongshu, nor can the providers use their own official websites for Baidu.
Therefore, please contact us before starting your promotion so we can assist in assessing the situation.
It’s unlikely you need to be concerned about your website being blocked. Even If you use Google Analytics on your website, it also will not have a problem.
There is a chance your website loads slowly in China. We will help you check. If that is the case, we will recommend one of several options such as modifying your website, creating a new Chinese website, or using a landing page hosted by Baidu.
If your content and videos are hosted on a major Western platform such as YouTube, they certainly will not load in China.
From the decision to start to the start of promotion, it can take as little as two weeks, but more commonly takes a month. The first step is to reach out to us and have a meeting. After that, we normally respond with a quote in two work days.
In 99.9% of cases, you need a Chinese website. Even if your target audience speaks English, a Chinese website (Google Translate does not count) will enhance their experience. Additionally, the Chinese content used on the website might also be repurposed for use on WeChat, Xiaohongshu, and other platforms.
You provide us with the English content in any format, and we will adapt it for use in China. Good articles and videos are essential, as is the basic information about the services.
If you don’t yet have it on your English site, it’s also great to gather information about the neighborhood. Chinese legal services buyers care about service quality, reliability, client testimonials, and compliance with local regulations and standards. We will ask you for this information. If you provide it, you’ll find you get more inquiries from potential buyers.
We will share a visual report of the previous month’s promotional results with you every month and set the promotion plan for the following month together. Quarterly, we will review and brainstorm ideas for where to concentrate our efforts. Of course, in the early stages of your project, communication will be more frequent, with weekly meetings or daily messages via WeChat, Slack, and email.
We have successfully generated leads for Interseroh+, a sustainability service provider from Germany. By employing a strategy comprising Baidu search ads, WeChat customer service, and China-specific copywriting, we helped increase orders and brand awareness for their online platform Lizenzero. Since launching the campaign in late 2021, the number of orders on Lizenzero has grown to 150–200 per month. This is just one example of our successful campaigns.
First, contact us to have a meeting with a strategy consultant. We will learn more about your current situation and goals. We can usually provide guidance to you in that meeting. Then, if you want a proposal, we can create one in two work days on average (slower during busy periods). Once everything is ready, you can start your China market promotion.
Our clients usually have us handle everything from project initiation to implementation and strategy. If you want to be more involved or need to control accounts, we also welcome it.
We also offer services as simple as account setup and one-time consulting.
