From a 5×6-meter office in Beijing, China, one of our clients recently beat their competition, which has facilities exceeding 30,000 m2. How did he do it? How did he also manage to become an Internet Giant? In this post, alongside the ZARZA Engineers, discover the secret that can lead you and your organization to be among the new Internet Giants.
Internet Giants: The manufacturer, the distributor or the seller?
The question probably has no definitive answer; however, there is a maxim that at ZARZA we always share with our clients, and it is that on the Internet everyone plays under the same conditions, where regardless of whether the company manufacturing a product is a true regional giant, the Internet as a medium, an excellent and dynamic web design, and solutions properly advised by the ZARZA Engineers can lead a small distributor, or one of its sellers, to sell much more than the manufacturing company itself, to look the part and serve their customers like one of the Internet Giants.
In the case of our client in Beijing, who has been a ZARZA client since 2005, he started his business with a web page where he promoted the electronic products manufactured by a monumentally large company in the Dongcheng district, and from there began to position himself, despite the People’s Republic of China’s restrictions on free trade, as a successful distributor of the products, which basically focus on electronic components.
From a small office, in the company of his family, he runs his sales platform 24 hours a day and has managed, by virtue of speaking several languages, to place orders in many countries in the Americas and Europe, selling several million dollars per quarter, and is today one of the Internet Giants in China and the world.
When we told him we would write this article in his honor, while preserving his privacy, we asked him:
What do you imagine your customers think when placing an order on your website?
They see a professional site, much better developed than any other, in several languages, and which additionally always has an option for online chat with us; that has given us the advantage over the factory, where those who handle the business are not fluent, nor do they invest in their image.
In this case, the businessman, who focused on the basics and let himself be advised, today places most of the orders the factory works on — the same factory that once denied him the chance to work as just another of its employees… That is how the world is; the world belongs to the bold, and the bold seek to be Internet Giants.
