Spending over 12 days with some of the most succesful amazon sellers you learn so much and build real meaningful relationships. In some masterminds sellers become your friends, in china magic they become family.

Amazing, productive trip with amazing people

This was one of the best trips I’ve ever been on. Not only was it a great productive business trip, but I visited an amazing country and met amazing entrepreneurs at all levels. The mentors know their shtuff and were so helpful and willing to help. Highly recommend this trip!

China Magic is by far the most valuable event we have attended to date – and we have spent a lot of money on courses, masterminds, coaching, and conferences! We have had 2 key wins so far as a direct result of the learnings we got out of our China Magic sessions. One was on listing optimization – we made changes as suggested in one of the sessions and saw sales increase $1000 a day. The other was around product profitability and ROI – with the tools and information provided to us we were able to make small changes to a current product which saw it go from an 80% ROI and a 23% profit margin to a 190% ROI and a 37% profit margin. There are so many other valuable takeaways that we are still yet to implement that will make a huge impact on our business. I honestly can't recommend China Magic highly enough and can't wait for the next one.

I am confident that you will not find a better China trip for Amazon sellers anywhere, from anyone. The people that put on this trip are top-notch people and they really make sure that everyone gets a ton of value

Athena is the ECOM Queen!!

Athena is amazing, everything she does is always epic and always gives a 5 star experience. She is the ECOM Queen and networking with her is gold.

Not just knowledge... APPLIED Knowledge.

China Magic is an epic event! It has everything you need to start and scale a private label/brand business. The sourcing piece of the event is something you can't get at any other event. You also get the knowledge on what's working to sell effectively, scale properly, organize tasks, hire VAs/employees, and the list goes on. One of the best things about this event is the time you are able to get with mentors and other sellers who may be further down the road than you. There is plenty of time blocked out for you to talk through specific issues you are having in your business and get help from someone who has experience on what to do. I can't tell you how many events I've been to that are double or triple the price and only have stage talk from "experts". You leave with that "What do I do now?" feeling. Zero clarity. You will leave this event with absolute clarity on what you need to do next in your business to find success. Not many events can claim that. China Magic for the win.

Far exceeded my expectations

Taking this trip to China was definitely out of my comfort zone in terms of finance, time away from my family & business-wise, being a complete newb to Amazon. But I took the leap because I had seen Athena post about it for a while and the attendees she interviewed were having such incredible results. And I am SO GLAD I DID. This trip launched me into the business. Being able to source my products directly from manufacturers cut out all that back and forth you experience with Alibaba. It let me establish relationships in person which goes so much farther than email ever will. This was a fantastic part of the trip. But it comes second to the mentorship. The caliber of mentors that came on this trip and the tips, hacks, information and tools that they shared was invaluable. While a lot of it was for much more experienced sellers, I actually received the exact information I needed to take the next steps in my business. And it saved me MANY MONTHS of trial & error trying to figure it out on my own, without a doubt. The data you learn is immediately applicable to your business. It has propelled me forward, taking a lot of time out of getting off the ground. And the friendships you create on this trip are like no other. You're together with a group of fellow Amazon entrepreneurs, eating, sourcing, learning, networking and adventuring together for 12 straight days! When you leave you have this support network that stays with you - it's work family level 1200! I'm still working with and applying what I took away from the trip, still in touch with my China Magic family. And it'll keep me rolling till I head back next April!

The trip was beyond my expectations

The trip was beyond my expectations. To be on the ground in China, visiting my supplier and meeting new ones at Canton Fair was awesome enough but to have a group of people along side me, with immense support and expertise was immeasurable. Highly recommend, worth every penny!

I did not want to go on my own so joined the experts and going on this trip was a very valuable and a fun experience. You cannot do or see online what you can touch and feel and negotiate in person.

Beyond my expectations

Beyond my expectations This by far was the biggest needle moving event I've been to, in that the immediate action you can take in China with the help of the experts on the ground guiding you every step of the way. The new products we found, terms we negotiated and for me most importantly the friendships I've made with like minded entrepreneurs that we continue to support and help push each other to achieve our goals.

Very well organised and seamless management of all aspects of the trip.

China Magic was a GAME CHANGER!

China Magic was a game changer for my business! It expedited the process exponentially, but more importantly it built true, genuine relationships with my suppliers. Not to mention, the mentorship and training received from the leadership & mentors is priceless. Anyone in the e-commerce business should have the opportunity to attend China Magic. 10 Stars!!!

Grow your mind to grow your business

Such a tremendous trip with incredible people to discuss, strategise, work with and hear different opinions that will change the way you think and how you approach your business. Hearing how others do things while sharing your experiences is the key to a growth mindset and in turn a profitable business. Plus it is just plain fun!

China Magic was an Awesome trip

China Magic was an Awesome trip. Dan and Athena did an amazing job of creating a trip filled with training, usable skills to increase my companies income, tons of time for networking, site seeing, and so much more. China Magic trip is a great investment. They created an experience which will last a life time. I highly recommend China Magic.

Simply amazing and so much value!!

China Magic is one of the most comprehensive and in depth ecom/Amazon/sourcing training events I’ve ever experienced! I can’t even call it just a “training event” because it’s so much more than that. There is SO much value jam packed in every day plus it’s great that you get to navigate a foreign country with 70+ other people who you end up calling family by the end of the trip. You get to connect with industry experts on a personal level and will come back from China liberated and motivated to apply everything you learned (which is a lot by the way) to your business and take your business to new heights. The mentors are all so incredibly helpful and brilliant. Would highly recommend! 🙌🏼

Been following China magic since its first trip

I have followed China Magic since its first trip. It is the real deal. Quality mentoring and the absolute best hands on training you can receive if you are looking at expanding your business. The fact that I can experience some of the trip without being there and seeing the magic happen says it all. I hope to go one day!

LIFE-CHANGING EXPERIENCE!

I first went on the China Magic trip in October 2017 when I had just launched my first product. (I have been on the trip again since.) I got so much out of this trip in terms of product ideas, supplier relationships, mentoring, networking and FUN. I'm a mom with three kids and I can honestly say that this trip changed my life and changed my viewpoint about what I want for myself, for my family. It not only brought stability and expansion to my business but it completely revitalized my spirit of adventure. Cannot recommend highly enough!

China Magic - Clarity, Guidance and Sourcing Opportunities that make a difference

China Magic is the best investment I’ve made for my physical products business. I have been to a number of high profile very expensive masterminds and there is no comparison between them and China Magic. Athena and Dan provided more value than any other event for about 1/3 the price. Unlike other Masterminds that overpromise and underdeliver the leaders at China Magic give you concrete actionable training. This clarity helps you return home understanding with a plan to achieve your specific goals. Whether you just launched your first product or working on your 30th the trip will work for you. When you add this to the sourcing aspect you just cannot compare it with anything else.

Had an amazing experience

Had an amazing experience. It was such an adventure and even 4 months later we’re still learning and benefiting from our trip last April/May. If you’re an established seller then it will be so easy to increase revenue and even save on your existing operations just by meeting suppliers and visiting new ones!

China Magic was a Game Changer!

China Magic was such an incredible game changer for my business and my life. When I signed up, I was so nervous and intimidated but once I arrived, all of that fear melted away. I met so many people excited about life and the Amazon business. Navigating China and the Canton Fair is so much more fun in a group! The nightly masterminds are so valuable and mindblowing. I look forward to attending again!

I was blown away by the support and value I received from China magic. The mentors are all incredibly knowledgeable, and are always willing to help with any problems or questions you might have. Athena put an amazing amount of thought into every part of the trip, from the trainings to the social activities, making it not only a great business investment, but also a fun and memorable time!

33 Best Things To Know Before Visiting China 2024

As an avid traveller who has explored extensively across Asia, I was filled with equal parts excitement and anxiety when planning my first ever trip to China. Even as an experienced globetrotter.

I knew China would be totally different from anywhere I had ventured before. And it was! Those initial weeks in China definitely involved some hilarious missteps, confusing mishaps and newbie mistakes on my part.

Looking back now after dozens of return trips, it makes me chuckle remembering my earliest China adventures.

I can share hard-won advice to help first timers avoid the same snafus I made. Having proper expectations about China before you embark, my definitive China pre-travel guide highlights key things every new visitor should know beforehand – from vital apps to download like WeChat, packing tips like “BYOTP” (bring your own toilet paper), to navigating bizarre-but-tasty foods, transportation tricks and more.

Best Things To Know Before Visiting China

This comprehensive guide is packed with 30+ essential things to know before visiting China. From cultural nuances to practical tips, each point is detailed with real-life examples and local stories with these China travel tips, offering an engaging and insightful read for everything you need to know on how to prepare for a trip to China.

1. Understanding Chinese Visa Requirements

Before you go to China, it’s crucial to familiarise yourself with their visa policies . Unlike some destinations, China requires most travellers to obtain a visa before arrival.

The process involves filling out an application form, submitting a passport-sized photo, an itinerary or an invitation letter. Remember, the type of visa you need depends on the nature of your visit.

Whether it’s a tourist, business, or student visa, each has its specific requirements and validity periods. Planning a trip to China without a proper visa can result in being denied entry, which is a situation best avoided.

2. Understanding the Language Barrier

One of the most important China travel tips is to prepare for the language barrier. While Mandarin is the official language, dialects vary widely. English is taught in schools, however proficiency varies greatly.

Carry a translation app or a phrasebook to help with basic communication. Interestingly, learning a few Mandarin phrases not only eases interactions but also endears you to locals.

Learn how to say basics like “hello,” “thank you,” “how much does this cost” and “where is the bathroom.” Be sure to practice proper tonal pronunciation too. Apps like Pleco can translate menus or signs in a pinch too, these are a must know before visiting China. Locals appreciate when visitors try their language.

3. Cash is King

This is one of the top things to do before going to China. In China, cash still reigns supreme, especially in smaller towns and rural areas.

While larger cities have embraced digital payments through WeChat Pay or Alipay, always carry some cash for small vendors, taxis, and in places where digital payments aren’t accepted.

Understanding China’s currency, the Renminbi (RMB), and keeping smaller denominations handy can make transactions smoother.

As a first-time visitor to China, carry some cash, but set up a digital wallet if possible. I learned this the hard way when I couldn’t buy a train ticket with cash at a small station.

4. Use Alipay Over Credit Cards

Instead of stressing about whether your credit card will work abroad or dealing with foreign transaction fees, simply use Alipay. As a traveller, setting up these apps can be tricky due to the need for a Chinese bank account.

However, for foreigners visiting China, Alipay now offers a short-term feature known as Tour Pass.It serves the same purpose as WeChat Pay, allowing cashless payments through your mobile device, but has wider merchant acceptance internationally.

Set up Alipay and link your credit card before departure, this is one of the best things to know when going to China. Carrying small amounts of local currency in a money belt as backup is still wise though.

5. Brace for Culture Shock

Even seasoned travellers experience some degree of culture shock when first visiting China. The language barrier alone makes things challenging, while pushing and spitting indoors, questionable hygiene practices, absence of queues, smoking everywhere, and other cultural differences can surprise newcomers.

Come mentally prepared to embrace an utterly alien world where little makes sense at first. But that’s part of the fun and appeal too!

6. Get a VPN Before You Go – Navigating the Great Firewall of China

One of the must-knows before visiting China is about its internet censorship, famously known as the Great Firewall. Popular websites and apps like Google, Facebook, and Twitter are inaccessible.

It’s wise to download a reliable Virtual Private Network (VPN), set up before you go is essential, so you can access the sites and apps you rely on for travel planning, maps, communications and more.

Make sure to research VPNs that currently work well in China. Going without access to so much of what you’re used to online will be a major hassle otherwise, this is one of the top tips for travellers to China. However, be cautious as the use of VPNs is a gray area in Chinese law.

7. Public Transportation Tips

Travel tips in China must includes mastering their public transportation. China’s public transportation system is extensive and efficient, making it an ideal way to travel between cities and regions.

The high-speed train network, in particular, is a marvel, connecting major cities with comfort and speed. In cities, metros and buses are convenient and affordable, though they can be crowded.

It’s a great way to immerse yourself in local life. Remember to have your transportation card or change handy, as digital payments may not always be an option on buses.

Crowds and Etiquette: Trains and buses can be crowded, especially during rush hour or holidays. Practice patience and be prepared for close quarters.

8. Street Food: A Culinary Journey

Exploring street food is a must when visiting China for the first time. Each region offers its specialties, from spicy Sichuan skewers to the sweet, doughy treats of Shanghai.

Street food markets are not only a place to savour delicious bites but also to observe the hustle and bustle of local life. Be cautious about hygiene and choose stalls with high turnover and fresh ingredients is another of my top tips for visiting China.

9. Tipping Culture in China

Tipping is not customary in China. In restaurants, hotels, and taxis, it’s not expected to tip for services. This can be a pleasant surprise for travellers used to tipping cultures. However, if you receive exceptional service or are on a guided tour, a small gratuity is appreciated but not mandatory.

In a restaurant in Shanghai, I observed tourists insistently tipping a confused waiter, highlighting the importance of understanding such cultural nuances.

10. Shopping and Bargaining

Shopping in China can be an exhilarating experience, especially in local markets where bargaining is part of the culture. Sellers often start with higher prices, especially for tourists, so don’t be shy to negotiate.

However, do it respectfully and with a smile. For unique souvenirs, local handicrafts, and electronics, China offers a plethora of options. Travel tips in China – be cautious with too-good-to-be-true deals, as they might be counterfeit products.

11. Be Mindful of National Holidays

China’s tourist spots can be incredibly crowded, especially during national holidays and can significantly impact travel plans. Millions of people travel during these periods, leading to crowded transport and tourist sites.

Travelling to China tips – It’s advisable to plan your trip around these holidays or book well in advance. These periods also offer unique cultural experiences, with festive decorations, traditional events, and a bustling atmosphere.

12. Drinking Water Safety

Tap water in China is not safe to drink. Always opt for bottled water, which is widely available and inexpensive.

Even in hotels and restaurants, it’s better to use bottled water for drinking and brushing teeth. This precaution is a must-know before visiting China, ensuring you avoid any health issues during your trip.

13. Air Quality and Health Precautions

If it’s your first time in China, air pollution in major Chinese cities can be a concern, especially for those with respiratory issues.

Check the Air Quality Index (AQI) regularly and consider wearing a mask on high pollution days. Also, carry a basic first-aid kit with essential medicines, as pharmacies in China might not always stock what you’re used to. This is an important tip for travellers to China concerned about health.

14. BYOTP (Bring Your Own Toilet Paper)

What to know before travelling to China, carrying pocket packs of tissues or toilet paper is a China travel must-do.

While overall infrastructure and development has improved drastically, public bathrooms can still lack basics like toilet paper or soap. When nature calls, pull out your BYOTP so you’re prepared to handle business. Keeping hand sanitizer and face masks on hand is also wise.

15. Use a China SIM Card

Staying connected is easy in China. Purchasing local Chinese SIM cards for your unlocked smartphone upon arrival ensures affordable connectivity throughout your trip for calls, texts, maps and data.

China SIM cards can be purchased at airport shops after you disembark and show passport/visa. Top phone carriers are China Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom. This keeps travel communications way cheaper than pricey international roaming fees from your provider back home.

16. Respect Local Traditions and Customs

Knowing the local customs is a must know before visiting China. China is a land of diverse customs and traditions. Simple gestures like removing shoes before entering someone’s home, not sticking chopsticks upright in a bowl, and avoiding sensitive topics like politics can show respect for local customs.

Try to learn about the local traditions of the places you visit. This cultural sensitivity enhances your experience and deepens your understanding of China’s rich heritage.

17. Explore the Richness Beyond Cities

While cities like Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou are fascinating, China’s true beauty lies in its diverse landscapes and rural areas. Visit the terraced rice fields of Longsheng, the ancient town of Lijiang, or the karst mountains of Guilin.

These areas offer a glimpse into traditional Chinese life and stunning natural beauty. Be prepared for less English spoken and fewer western amenities but expect a more authentic and rewarding experience.

18. Safety in China

China is generally a safe country for tourists. However, like anywhere, it’s important to stay vigilant, especially in crowded areas to avoid pickpockets.

• Personal Safety: Petty crimes like pickpocketing can occur in crowded areas. Always be mindful of your belongings.
• Health Safety: While healthcare facilities are adequate, it’s wise to have travel insurance and carry a basic first aid kit.

19. Health Care for Travellers

While China has good health care facilities, especially in major cities, it’s advisable to have travel insurance. Pharmacies are plentiful, but communication can be a challenge, so learn basic health-related Mandarin phrases.

20. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)

TCM is widely practiced in China. Experiencing acupuncture or a traditional massage can be a unique aspect of your trip. However, be sure to visit reputable practitioners.

21. Photography: Capturing the Moments

China offers endless photographic opportunities, from bustling cityscapes to serene landscapes. Always ask for permission before photographing people, as a sign of respect.

22. Use WeChat for Almost Everything

WeChat is the super app of China – it’s used for messaging, payments, reservations, ordering taxis and so much more. Downloading WeChat before arrival and setting up WePay for payments is crucial.

Often even street food vendors or small shops will prefer payment via WeChat over cash. Having it set up ahead of time saves hassle, as you cannot link international credit cards once within China.

23. Bring Proper Power and Tech Adapters

While adapter plugs may seem like a small issue compared to VPNs and WeChat, not having the right power adapters can cause big headaches by draining your precious device batteries. China uses 220-volt electricity with socket types A, C and I.

So don’t forget your travel adapters and power converters, which allow devices from other countries work properly and charge safely.

24. Use DiDi Instead of Local Taxis

Hailing taxis off the street in China used to be common for travellers, but now apps like DiDi (essentially China’s version of Uber) offer safer, more reliable rides. Download and set up DiDi ahead of arrival.

Local taxis still exist too but are notorious for overcharging foreigners and taking “the long way” to destinations. With DiDi, you order cars to your exact location, pay securely through the app, and no money changes hands.

25. Respect the Long Lines

Whether it’s to see Chairman Mao’s Mausoleum, visit historic sites like the Great Wall, or even buy food at popular restaurants, be prepared for epic lines.

The large population means tourist queues get very long everywhere. Come equipped with patience, snacks, umbrellas for rain or sun, portable chargers, and anything else to make waiting in line more bearable. Going with a guide can help bypass some lines too.

26. Use a China-Based Travel Agency

While travel in China has gotten much easier for independent travellers, it can still be beneficial booking tours, guides or transportation through domestic Chinese agencies instead of global ones.

China-based companies have better local knowledge, contacts and resources that provide unique experiences most western companies don’t offer. From hiking the Great Wall to exploring minority villages in Yunnan or Xinjiang, domestic tour companies lead to more authentic adventures.

27. Avoid Certain Political Statements

This is one of the top thing to before you go to China. China has strict laws restricting speech on sensitive topics that oppose government policies or undermine unity. These include any talk supporting independence movements in Taiwan, Tibet and Xinjiang or references to protest events like Tiananmen Square.

Avoid these conversations completely while visiting. While the odds of getting arrested are low, saying the wrong thing could lead to detention or deportation. Don’t risk your trip unnecessarily.

28. Watch Where You Walk

If this is your first trip to China, pedestrian accidents can happen easier across China if you don’t pay attention, due to local traffic customs. Jaywalking lackadaisically is commonplace, drivers get priority, sidewalks have gaping holes and pop-up street vendors spread everywhere.

Elderly electric bikes whisk by without warning too. Don’t stare at sights while strolling – watch where you walk instead. That distraction could make you trip, crash or get hit by something unexpected from the wrong direction.

29. Perfect Your Chopstick Skills

Before you go to China, practice using chopsticks before your inaugural China trip, especially if you’ve never used them before. While forks may be available at some tourist restaurants, don’t expect to encounter knives at all.

Chopsticks are typically the sole utensil option across eateries nationwide. Learning proper form to grasp food avoids fumbled meals and embarrassment. Playing with Chinese takeout back home using only chopsticks speeds the familiarity curve too.

30. Pack Layers Regardless of Season

In this guide to visiting China, you should note that China’s vast landscape spans subarctic to subtropical climates, so packing appropriate apparel means dressing in adaptable layers. Northern areas by Russia range far colder than southern tropical zones by Southeast Asia.

Tips for China even if visiting one region, fluctuating temperatures between indoors and out or day and night means layering up is key. Additionally, super modern buildings blast arctic AC much colder than the steaming outdoors.

31. Be Decisive Using Roads

When crossing streets along China’s chaotic roadways, act swiftly and decisively – do not hesitate. Traffic flows appear anarchic to visitors, with vehicles swerving everywhere haphazardly. But locals navigate fluidly with an intuitive rhythm.

Match their boldness when on foot yourself. Don’t timidly stop mid-crossing if surprised by oncoming bikes, cars or buses – just maintain your chosen trajectory assertively. Indecisiveness causes accidents.

32. Pack Prescription Medications

Things to know before going to China is to bring more than enough medications in their clearly labelled original packaging if you take prescriptions or typically use over-the-counter healthcare products.

While pharmacies exist nationwide, don’t expect easy access equivalents for what you’re accustomed to back home, or anyone who speaks English. Trying to mime symptoms to find suitable medical substitutes rarely works well. Play it safe so health issues don’t ruin your trip.

33. Expect the Unexpected

When travelling in China, go with the flow when encountering the unexpected. Frustrations or complaints about unforeseen situations will not help you overcome problems any easier.

Language and cultural gaps mean you won’t always know what’s happening or why. Try to relax and remember this is all part of the adventure. You’ll laugh about it later. China’s magic lies in those unplanned moments where you must surrender to spontaneity.

Things To Know When Travelling To China

After reviewing these 32 vital China travel tips that I wish I had known before my own first trip, first-timers can now arrive far better equipped. By getting your VPN, WeChat, power adapters and other tech necessities handled ahead of time, you skip so much frustration.

Understanding important cultural differences – from long lines and spitting to jaywalking dangers and lack of queues – helps brace for Reverse Culture Shock too.

Our two-week China tour itinerary and how to plan a trip to China

After living in Beijing for a month , I knew our adventure in China would be no easy deal. We had two weeks to explore the country, and we wanted to see as much as possible in just 14 days. And China is huge, provinces differ from each other so much so we knew it will be a nice intro tour to China rather than exploring deeply. We had no time to lose and having noticed how long it took to just arrange train tickets from Beijing to Shanghai, we decided to ask some tour agencies in China for private tours around the country. Below follow some advice on how to plan a trip to China and our 2-week China itinerary.

Planning a trip to China

Our two-week itinerary in china, days 1-2 beijing and the great wall of china, days 3-4 shanghai, days 5-6 kunming and stone forest, day 8 lijiang, day 9 jade dragon mountain and tiger leaping gorge, day 10 shangri-la, days 11-13 guilin.

• Day 12 Li River cruise, Longji Terraced Fields and Yao village

Day 12 Li River cruise, Longji Terraced Fields, and Yao village

Here we are in the area of karst topography. The province is Guangxi, we start from the city of Guilin and we were taken by bus to Zhujiang Wharf. This port was our starting point for the Lijiang river cruise to Yangshuo. Then we sailed away to a new utopian world… The weather was against us so it started drizzling and then pouring while will were sailing the Li river. We reached the port of Yangshuo soaked but very mesmerized by the picturesque views. No wonder they used the view from the Li river for the 20 Yuan banknote.

The terrace fields called Longsheng Rice Terraces are at a two-hour picturesque drive through the mountains from Guilin. They cover an area of about 66 square kilometers, so, unfortunately, we cannot really say which terraces we visited. Still, despite the disagreeable weather, the place was incredible. Perhaps the prayers of the long-haired women from the Yao ethnic minority in the special village of Huangluo were heard and rain fell to water the crops.

We were mesmerized by the warm welcome the ladies gave us. They run the whole village, having organized a couple of souvenirs stalls, and a big performance hall where they entertain visitors. We watched a show full of dance, singing, and demonstration of different skills they have – e.g. rowing, knitting, and carrying heavy loads. They even allow some guys to “marry” them – just for the fun and to show everyone their wedding rituals.

It’s still a mystery how their hairs grow so long and shiny. Is it something they eat or drink, or is it their lifestyle as a whole? Yao women’s hair is an essential part of the show – they brush it, comb it, style it – it’s a fine art to put 2 meters of hair in order. Depending on their marital status, Yao women also wear their hair in a different style – with a single/double bun on top of the head, with/without a cloth covering the whole hair. At the end of the show, we joined the Yao ladies for a traditional dance that is danced hand to hand in a circle. It was the final celebration of being in the Kingdom of the Long Hairs in China.

It is true China is so vast and full of different places, people, and experience that you’ll need much more than half a month to explore it. We offered you our suggestions on how to plan a trip to P.R.C. and our two-week China tour itinerary. We hope you enjoyed it and got inspired to visit that unbelievable and huge chunk of the planet!

Do let us know your suggestions on other experiences and things to do in China. We will put them on our itinerary for our next visit! Xièxiè! 謝謝

So sorry for my late reply, I’m finally back home. I just wanted to say a huge thank you for organizing my tour, you were just amazing and I had the most fantastic time.

The tour arrangements have been amazing. Everything is very well planned and made our tour very relaxed. Isaac, the tour guide, has been great and is very flexible with our requests. We will definitely recommend your company to our friends who are planning a visit to China.

Back in Sydney at last!

The tour ran very smoothly and provided some special insights into the history, life and scenery of Inner Mongolia. We were met at the Hohhot Railway Station on time; the itinerary was full but manageable and unfolded as promised; the hotels were clean and comfortable; and our guide (Cherry) and driver were fun company and made us very welcome, despite the obvious language barrier. The only minor hiccup was that our tour started on a Monday and was meant to take in the Inner Mongolian Museum that first day, but museums in China are generally closed on a Monday. However, we were able to rearrange the last full day of the tour to fit in the Museum, which is well worth visiting.

I am happy to recommend your service to others.

Spending over 12 days with some of the most succesful amazon sellers you learn so much and build real meaningful relationships. In some masterminds sellers become your friends, in china magic they become family.

Amazing, productive trip with amazing people

This was one of the best trips I’ve ever been on. Not only was it a great productive business trip, but I visited an amazing country and met amazing entrepreneurs at all levels. The mentors know their shtuff and were so helpful and willing to help. Highly recommend this trip!

China Magic is by far the most valuable event we have attended to date – and we have spent a lot of money on courses, masterminds, coaching, and conferences! We have had 2 key wins so far as a direct result of the learnings we got out of our China Magic sessions. One was on listing optimization – we made changes as suggested in one of the sessions and saw sales increase $1000 a day. The other was around product profitability and ROI – with the tools and information provided to us we were able to make small changes to a current product which saw it go from an 80% ROI and a 23% profit margin to a 190% ROI and a 37% profit margin. There are so many other valuable takeaways that we are still yet to implement that will make a huge impact on our business. I honestly can't recommend China Magic highly enough and can't wait for the next one.

I am confident that you will not find a better China trip for Amazon sellers anywhere, from anyone. The people that put on this trip are top-notch people and they really make sure that everyone gets a ton of value

Athena is the ECOM Queen!!

Athena is amazing, everything she does is always epic and always gives a 5 star experience. She is the ECOM Queen and networking with her is gold.

Not just knowledge... APPLIED Knowledge.

China Magic is an epic event! It has everything you need to start and scale a private label/brand business. The sourcing piece of the event is something you can't get at any other event. You also get the knowledge on what's working to sell effectively, scale properly, organize tasks, hire VAs/employees, and the list goes on. One of the best things about this event is the time you are able to get with mentors and other sellers who may be further down the road than you. There is plenty of time blocked out for you to talk through specific issues you are having in your business and get help from someone who has experience on what to do. I can't tell you how many events I've been to that are double or triple the price and only have stage talk from "experts". You leave with that "What do I do now?" feeling. Zero clarity. You will leave this event with absolute clarity on what you need to do next in your business to find success. Not many events can claim that. China Magic for the win.

Far exceeded my expectations

Taking this trip to China was definitely out of my comfort zone in terms of finance, time away from my family & business-wise, being a complete newb to Amazon. But I took the leap because I had seen Athena post about it for a while and the attendees she interviewed were having such incredible results. And I am SO GLAD I DID. This trip launched me into the business. Being able to source my products directly from manufacturers cut out all that back and forth you experience with Alibaba. It let me establish relationships in person which goes so much farther than email ever will. This was a fantastic part of the trip. But it comes second to the mentorship. The caliber of mentors that came on this trip and the tips, hacks, information and tools that they shared was invaluable. While a lot of it was for much more experienced sellers, I actually received the exact information I needed to take the next steps in my business. And it saved me MANY MONTHS of trial & error trying to figure it out on my own, without a doubt. The data you learn is immediately applicable to your business. It has propelled me forward, taking a lot of time out of getting off the ground. And the friendships you create on this trip are like no other. You're together with a group of fellow Amazon entrepreneurs, eating, sourcing, learning, networking and adventuring together for 12 straight days! When you leave you have this support network that stays with you - it's work family level 1200! I'm still working with and applying what I took away from the trip, still in touch with my China Magic family. And it'll keep me rolling till I head back next April!

China magic is a great trip

China magic is a great trip, worth every penny for the knowledge you receive and the mentors you get access too!

Attending Chinamagic has made a huge impact on my business. My revenue has doubled in a matter of 2 months by implementing processes I’ve learned through the nightly masterminds, negotiating better prices with manufacturers and connecting with like minded people. This business trip was truly a priceless experience.

China magic...Pure Magic!!!

China magic is such an amazing trip for so much content and sourcing information from some of the most influential experts in e-commerce. there are so many things that the most successful e-commerce entrepreneurs are doing that you get upfront information that is being implemented on the spot and results immediately.I suggest anyone who wants to be successful in e-commerce invest in this trip.

China Magic is awesome

China Magic is awesome! You will learn more about you Amazon business in a couple of weeks than you will all year!
