Selling Your Products via Hong Kong E-Commerce – Global From Asia episode 102!
Things are drying up nicely here in the South of China, had a massive typhoon the other week that was like permanent rain day and night. Sun is out and life is good. Though Google Now does keep warning me that the air pollution is at the danger levels. Guess it is the trade off for the nicer weather.

Also – this podcast is now every other week – that is because we have Global From Asia TV alternating. So if you want to watch some talking head videos of me – check it out. I’m collecting feedback from people and getting better at video – 3 episodes deep there, and a few more in the queue. Video is a lot more complex, but reaching new people and I love connecting.
As always, any feedback on the show, topic ideas, etc – please shoot them over mike @ globalfromasia
And if you like the show – please support it with an iTunes review, we podcasters are always begging listeners for this one but it does help (supposedly) in the rankings and for us to get more awesome listeners like yourselves
