Serving Greater Los Angeles & Orange County

Why this market

Reach the Chinese customers already around you.

Chinese American consumers are among the highest-spending customers in many U.S. markets. For restaurants, clinics, real estate and other local services, they are often the largest untapped source of growth.

They live in a different feed

Most speak English well. But when they decide where to eat, which doctor to see or whom to hire, they open Xiaohongshu (REDnote) and WeChat.

Mainstream marketing misses them

English-language ads and social media rarely show up in those apps, so reaching this audience takes a dedicated effort.

Trust comes from their own community

A recommendation from a creator they follow, in their own language, is what turns interest into a visit.

Client feedback

“Many Chinese customers visited over the past weekend. It looks like the Xiaohongshu marketing is working effectively!”
A message from our client contact after speaking with the owner of Moobongri. The first round of creator visits brought a visible weekend rush of Chinese diners, so the restaurant moved to four creator visits every month.
