Hi Dominic,

Good to see you briefly the other day. Forgot to tell you I’m going out to China next week. Just wondered what to expect. I know you have experience doing business there. Don’t want to put my foot in it with potential business partners. Could you let me know anything I should be particularly aware of?

Thanks

Paul

Dominic’s reply:

Hi Paul

Glad to hear you are going out to China. I think you’ll enjoy it. Not Shanghai, is it? Let me know maybe I can fix you up with couples of contacts. Anyway, my advice:

-Take plenty of business cards- Chinese people always give you theirs (make sure read them carefully). It’s embarrassing if you don’t have one in return.

-Keep the name and address of your hotel with you when you go out. Visitors are always getting into trouble because they can’t remember where they are staying.

 

-The Chinese love their food and are very proud of it. They’ll offer you some unusual dishes. Just be adventurous and be grateful.

 

Good luck and speak soon.

 

Dominic
