Greetings. I am complimented by your invitation and readily accept.

I am a China Marketing Advisor with 20 years export development experience; speak Mandarin fairly well; and have an office in Beijing with my project partner.

My expertise focuses on strategic marketing, cultural insights and competitive intelligence; and gave a presentation on these topics at the recent SCIP conference in San Diego.

I am targeting the following industries to enter China: water purification and irrigation; value-added foods and food technologies; and higher education and executive training.

In addition, I am communicating with Chinese companies ready to enter markets in North America.

My site: www.VisionQuestIntelligence.com.

Respectfully,

David DeChant
Principal
