What does your company do ?
Had a meeting with some guys that were referred to me as being in the "web space" in China, so I thought let's go buy em coffee.
Little did I know ...
After formalities were over and we had a general chit chat, here is parts of conversation:
Me: What You guys do then?
Them: We create the solutions for the problems by using technology.
followed by 10 minutes of babbling about nothing.
Me: What specific areas are you targeted/working in/on?
Them: Which ever area our clients needs and desires require on a certain day.
followed by 10 minutes of babbling about nothing.
Me: What makes you different from your competitors?
Them: We only create solutions, NOT problems.
Me: So You mainly into SEO or PPC
Them: We like SEO because it looks good, but we never watch BBC.
Me: How do you see us working together if at all?
Them: You can maybe take our concept and sell to Western Companies.
So there ya have it folks, If this is the kind of company you need, then I am their official International representative.
