WeChat Marketing: Market to Who?


Search on Google today for ‘WeChat Marketing Book English’ and it is hard to find one.  

Indeed, it is surprising to many, because Weixin, has been around since 2011.  Weixin was renamed WeChat when it was made available internationally in 2013.  To date, there are 1.15 billion WeChat users in the world in 21 languages.  About 10% of the users are outside China, so this amounts to 115 million international users. 

You may say this 115 million is small compared to the billions of users of Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram.  Compared to Twitter and LinkedIn, WeChat international users are relatively small.

Since we are NOT in China, why bother about WeChat?  Can we just focus on the other social media tools where the reach is much wider?  Indeed, this has been the question that people often asked me.  “Why bother to market on WeChat when you have other better choices?”  was the question asked by one director from a large government body in Singapore.

The question is back to why use WeChat?  Many people told me that it is to sell to the Chinese living in mainland China, and these 1.035 billion users have at least 30% that are middle income and above, and they amount to 310 million rich people in China.  “If I could easily capture 0.01% of the market, that is 31,000 rich people!” exclaimed one CEO of a European company.

But we all know that it is very hard to sell to the people in China if when you are outside China. Because China now has everything that is cheap and good, why should they buy from a stranger foreigner?  Unless this foreigner has something that they don’t have, which is rare. 

So, use WeChat to sell to who?  Living in Singapore allows me to sell to the China-born Chinese that lives in Singapore.  According to some statistics, there are 1 million China-born Chinese that lives in Singapore. These 1 million people are daily active WeChat users living in Singapore. They could be Singapore citizens (like my business partner Master Li Chengwei), or Permanent Residents, or holders of work permits, employment pass, S-pass, E-pass, 60-days social pass or just tourists.   

Since 2015, I Andy Ng have been using WeChat to market to 1 million China-born Chinese living in Singapore, and also to the estimated 200,000 Chinese here that use WeChat. To date, I have earned tens of thousands of dollars from WeChat marketing.  This book documents my own experiences that have worked for my humble business of training and consultancy. The strategies here works!

If Not You, Who Else?

I learnt this very powerful 5-word phrase from Singapore's highest ever box-office movie ever: "Ah Boys to Men II". In one scene, the recruits were about to start their 3-day field camp.  Their Officer-in-Command asked them, "Before we moved out, anybody not feeling well?"  All the soldiers replied loudly, "No Sir!!!" "Gentlemen", continued the Officer, "Every time the training gets tougher, one thought comes to your mind, 'Why Must I Serve National Service?' "My answer to you is, 'If Not You, Then Who Else?'" Wow!  What a powerful phrase!  If Not You, Who Else may mean: You are the most suitable person, and we can't find anyone better than you.  This is appreciation at the highest level How can you push this responsibility to someone else? I am making a request to you specifically, please don't reject my request Can you find me another person more suitable than you? Please refer me anot...

How I Became a Fortune Teller: Leveraging NLP, Fear and Greed, and Motivational Theories

Becoming a fortune teller wasn’t part of my childhood dreams. It started as an experiment, fueled by my curiosity about human behavior and the subtle forces that drive our decisions. Over time, what began as a study of psychology and human interaction evolved into an unexpected career—one where I use the tools of NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), the primal drivers of fear and greed, and motivational theories to help people uncover their paths. The First Step: Understanding the Human Psyche I was always fascinated by why people do what they do. During my university years, I studied psychology, particularly the works of Abraham Maslow, B.F. Skinner, and Victor Vroom. Their theories provided insights into motivation, reinforcement, and decision-making. But I wanted to move beyond the academic realm and see how these theories worked in real life. Around this time, I discovered NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming). This framework for understanding communication and behavior is based on the...
