Introduction
Scaling marketing efforts in China requires more than increasing ad spend—it demands a well-structured and integrated campaign strategy that aligns with local platforms, consumer behavior, and data systems. Overseas brands often struggle to scale effectively due to fragmented execution and lack of localization.
