While difficult to fully describe everything that is
CIC culture, it most definitely provides a competitive
advantage as well as a valuable asset for our clients.
CIC is youthful, and experienced; passionate and professional,
detailed and open-minded. We talk the talk, but we also
walk the walk the power of IWOM. To understand what
we do, see www.cicdata.com,
but to understand what we think and feel, see our blog
on www.seeisee.com.
On our internal wiki and our internal BBS, you will
find our team members sharing ideas on how to improve
what we do and how we do it (as well as occasional rants
and raves about the latest net star or Web 2.0 application).
We have intense ping-pong
tournaments, take occasional trips to barbeque Dianshan
Hu, and sometimes order out Xiaolong Xia.To get a feel
for our daily life, check out our pics on Flickr.
Some of us lived through the first dot com boom in
China, so while we have an appreciation of the essence
and power of web 2.0, including online communities,
we also understand that some of the talk, is, well,
excessive.
We have international understanding with a local focus.
We have local Chinese managers from leading international
firms (including market research) and an American founder
who worked with a leading local firm. We speak English,
Mandarin, and Shanghainese (and American Southern Dialect).
We also speak the language of Chinese Net Culture and
have developed our own CIC language.
Our analysts advise and consult leading marketing,
advertising and PR agencies on IWOM as well as work
with executives and managers leading and visionary Fortune
500 brands doing business in China. We have been doing
this stuff in China longer than anyone else we know.
We love what we do, and we would love to contribute
to your organization's success.
