The cause for creating this online platform are my personal experiences with my Chinese wife and my internship at a Chinese agency. I found out that manners matter not only when you are with your family in law, but also when you are doing business.

Most important are manners when you are doing business with Chinese.China is one of the biggest countrie worldwide when it comes to import and export in Holland.Therefor it would be quite important for the Dutch to know the insights of the Chinese manners in order to build up a good business relation with them. Chinese people still do business based on good feeling, respect and trust. Off course you are allowed to make a mistake, but by showing some interest in a Chinese and his manners and traditions you will make him feel comfortable and respected. And eventually this will give you a lead start when doing business.

Manguru will give Dutch business people a lead start by letting them see the Chinese manners and traditions through the eyes of and expert or native. This in order to build up a bridge between both cultures.

Manguru is an online platform that allows users to post and share business manners do’s and don’ts from China. It can be useful for Dutch business man to know about Chinese business manners when you aretravelling, doing business or when you are researching the Chinese culture. The platform transcends existing references on manners because it does not only describe manners generically. It gives deep insights in the contexts and practical use of manners and related manners. Based on all this information a do’s and don’ts list is created for each category of manners in a certain region.Therefore by using this platform you will never act inappropriate when dealing with the Chinese culture as a Dutch businessman.

Doing business with China is booming these days. Also the Dutch see the use of doing business in China. As said before China is one of the biggest countries for import and export not only in Holland but also worldwide. But this does not mean that doing business with Chinese is easy and always goes smooth. The Chinese culture is very rich of manners and traditions, which they still hang on to very much. When you could show Chinese that you have enriched yourself with some of their manners and traditions you sure will make a good impression on them!

By browsing in some books and websites you can find a lot of manners but mostly all of these products are quite general in providing you information. Also when you read books you are the one who needs to filter the information and decide what is important for you. This usually is not possible when you dont know enough about a culture and its manners. Manners consist of many key factors that a person needs to know before using them.

These key factors are region, religion, ethnic group, job function, traditions and environment. All the books and websites do not provide these key factors well enough. Another issue is that in this modern time we need information anytime and anywhere. The perfect solution to this problem is an online platform where you can prepare yourself anytime and anywhere before doing business in China. With Manguru you will always be well prepared!

Who are we?

Manguru is an online platform that allows users to post and share Chinese business manners For who?

The target group of this platform will be the Dutch business people, since they will have the biggest profits with a platform like this.

Why?

There is a strong need for more unique information with insights in key factors such as country, region, ethnic group, religion and tradition that can be provided by natives and experts only. This information needs to be provided anytime, anywhere, short, simple and easy at one central place online. The fact that this information is povided by experts and natives only makes the information very reliable.

Proposition of Manguru 1/3

Page 9: Manguru bidbook 4.0

8

What do they need?

Deeper information on manners provided by experts and natives with different social layers from either Holland or China.

What do we offer?

An online platform that is easy accessible anytime and anywhere. Where manners are shared by natives and discussed by them with other users and experts. Allowing users to understand and respect different cultures more and better. The eventual data produced on the platform is stored and re-used into clear and short datasheets, which can be used by users while travelling or as a marketing tool. Also moderators (who consist of cultural experts) will create custom made do’s and don’ts lists for each category of manners that are located in a certain region of Holland or China. This will allow business people to get a fast, clear and short total overview of what are currently the main trends on manners at the location where they are, or going to be.

Proposition of Manguru 2/3

Page 10: Manguru bidbook 4.0

Competition

There is much competition in analogue and digital way. Only the main issue is that these competitors offer information that is too general, too long and most of the time not provided by natives. Their websites and books make it hard to share the information fast and everywhere.Also when people read a long book they will only remember parts of the manners which is a shame of the time spend on reading it. Another thing is that people reading a book will also decide themselves what is most important to them, this while experts could now make that choice for them.This is where Manguru steps in.

Why are we different?

Thanks to our user generated content (from natives) and feedback from experts, professionals and other users from different social layers on manners we can offer trustworthy information with unique insights. With one central point of information Manguru also offers users the opportunity to form a community, which will create a better bond between different cultures. This will lead to better understanding and respect for each other’s manners and culture. And since the data on the platform is stored in a unique way users can vieuw statistics, infographics and short do’s and don’ts lists provided on the platform.

Give users a good preparation (guide them) before doing business in China with Chinese

Primarygoalofthisproject

SubgoalofthisplatformTo get a cultural heritage that has unique information, that is structured and mapped thanks to the users who generated the content themselves. And achieve the 2 main question points when I started this project

• How to let people post on a online platform?

• How to let people see each others culture through each others eyes?

Page 48: Manguru bidbook 4.0

47

Where to promote it?

• Airports, where business people from all over the world hang out (Schiphol Airport in Holland as example)

• Embassy’s of China and Holland

• Cultural events related to China or Holland

• Social media! Twitter, Facebook and Linkedin

• Business meetings or conferences

• Online groups and communities

By promoting the platform on these places business people and experts will be contacted in every possible way. This so a wide variety of business users will visit the platform.

Promotion strategy

Digintosocialmediaanditsstrengths Creating profiles and interact with business people online to draw them to the platform. React on their questions and manner related posts on Twitter and Facebook. But also by making a Linkedin group so business people are more easy to find and connect to.The social media will be: Twitter, Facebook and Linkedin The campaign With this campaign I want to provoke Dutch business people who are active and China, but also Chinese experts and natives. I hope to pursue them to set things straight and come to visit the platform. The idea is to show a manner, or to mention something about a culture which is absolutely not true. In this way I want to give people the feeling that they have to set things straight or correct this issue about their culture. By showing the link to the platform people will get the chance to react on the manner at the platform and share their true story and vision. When they visit the website they will see more manners and questions and I hope this will trigger theme to keep visit this platform. This campaign can be promoted at the following places: • Airports: For now Schiphol Airport in Holland • Embassy’s of China and Holland • Cultural events • Business meetings or conferences • Online groups and communities

How to promote it?
