We are strategists, designers, and AI engineers — working together to build brands that break through in global markets. We cut your overseas marketing costs by up to 70%, and multiply what's left.
The traditional playbook for overseas brand-building is broken. We built VIK to fix it.
A local overseas marketing team runs ¥500K–1M per person per year. A competent agency costs ¥50K–200K monthly. A full brand project starts at ¥200K. For most Chinese SMEs, these numbers simply don't compute.

Someone who truly understands global markets, can execute brand strategy, and is fluent in modern AI tools is extraordinarily rare. Recruiting takes 3–6 months. Keeping them is harder still.

Content published. Ads running. Budget spent. Yet brand awareness is flat, enquiries haven't moved, conversions haven't improved. Without data-driven optimization, marketing becomes guesswork.

Not "we use AI." We use the right strategy, the right tools — and deliver measurable outcomes your business can build on.
AI automation replaces repetitive human labour — content production, social operations, data analysis, customer follow-up. Work that once required a team of 6–9 people, our AI workflows achieve with 2–3.
Custom AI workflows accelerate content production 10×, automate data analysis, and keep customer touchpoints alive around the clock. One smart person with the right tools produces what ten people used to.
We don't just help you sell. We build brand assets that belong to you — an independent website, an engaged audience, an email list. These are durable advantages no platform algorithm can take away.
From diagnosis to AI tooling, from brand strategy to execution — VIK connects every link in the chain so you never have to manage three separate agencies again.
We look for the truth. A systematic AI-powered audit of your entire overseas marketing chain — finding the specific bottlenecks that are costing you the most growth.
We design usable systems. A bespoke AI marketing stack built for your business — automating everything from content creation to customer acquisition.
We make you a team. We assess your existing people, redesign the structure for an AI-first era, and train every member to work at a new level of output.
We make ideas happen. We build your overseas brand from the ground up — positioning, visual identity, content, channels — and execute it. One partner. Full chain.
We don't deliver decks and disappear. We deliver executable SOPs, reusable AI workflows, and quantifiable KPIs — then we stay.
A Chinese outdoor equipment company generating ¥30M annually, stalled at $50K/month on Amazon for over eight months. Product quality was never the issue. Brand awareness was zero — the situation faced by the majority of Chinese exporters.
In 12 weeks, VIK completed the full diagnosis, deployed the AI tooling stack, and built a brand strategy that moved GreenPath out of pure price competition — and into a brand-led loop in North America they now own.
Total investment in VIK services, tools, and advertising: ¥480K. Incremental annual revenue generated: ¥4.62M. More importantly — GreenPath now owns its independent website, its audience, its email list. These are brand assets that Amazon can never take away.
The market has strategists. It has designers. It has AI engineers. VIK is the rare firm where all three work as one — and the result is something none of them can produce alone.
Our edge isn't that we know design. Or that we know AI. It's that we know all three — and deploy them as one integrated force. You don't need a strategy firm, a design studio, and an AI consultancy. VIK is the whole chain.

Three packages for three stages of the journey. Not sure where to begin? Let's talk first — the consultation is free.
Prices above are consulting service fees only, excluding third-party tool subscriptions (approx. ¥1,000–8,000/month, subscribed directly by client). Payment terms: 50% on signing + 30% at midpoint + 20% on delivery.
Precisely relevant. Large enterprises have the budget for McKinsey. Smaller companies need to make every yuan work harder. Our Explore package starts at ¥12,000 — it finds the most critical problem first, before you spend anything larger. Our philosophy is lean market entry: minimum investment, maximum leverage.
You can. Anyone can register for ChatGPT. Our value isn't teaching you to use it — it's knowing how your industry should compete overseas (strategy), knowing which AI tools work for your specific use case (selection), and connecting those tools into automated workflows that actually run (execution). Figuring this out solo typically takes 1–2 years and significant trial-and-error cost.
That's the whole point. We don't build dependency — we build capability. Every engagement delivers a complete set of AI workflow SOPs your team can operate from day one. Full training, documentation, and templates included. For ongoing support, our annual advisory retainer (¥36,000–60,000/year) keeps us available as you scale.
We define measurable KPIs with you at project kickoff. Timeline varies by channel: social media shows movement in 1–3 months, SEO in 3–6 months, brand awareness compounds over 6–12 months. Brand building is a long game — but we ensure every step is directionally correct and the data is always visible.
We cover all primary export destinations: North America (US and Canada), Europe, Southeast Asia, and Middle East / Latin America / Africa. Each market gets a matched strategy and toolset — SEA focuses on TikTok, Shopee, and Lazada; North America on Google SEO and Instagram; Europe on compliance and localised copywriting.
Traditional agencies run on headcount — large teams doing content, ads, and reporting manually. That means high cost, poor standardisation, and constant staff turnover risk. VIK replaces the majority of repetitive human labour with AI workflows, driving cost down while raising quality and consistency. And our 9 years of brand design heritage means the work doesn't just perform — it looks like it belongs on the world stage.
