“ I’m Vicky and I’m from YKS Group. My company is a cross border e-commerce business in China. It is my first time in Cross border Summit. First of all it is a great chance to know the different people from different countries. A good chance to know what foreign people think of China.”
- Vicky

Great insight from people on the ground
★★★★★
“ Michael could probably fill a podcast with just his own experiences and the guests he brings in just multiply that. My todo list of things to look into and books to read is growing with almost every episode, so this is indeed actionable advice.”
- SjorsP

Mike helped me to write a business plan to show to the bank.
★★★★★
“ Everything was pretty easy from perspective of me handling it, I don’t really need to do anything. Mike helped me to write a business plan to show to the bank. I got the bank account right away. The incorporation just took us 1 day. I would recommend the service to anyone who wants to setup shop in Hong Kong.”
- Julian – Entrepreneur from Germany

I bought Mike’s Supercharged book
★★★★★

international business podcast with honest and real entrepreneurs
★★★★★
“ The Global from Asia podcast provides you with a great insight on different aspects of international business, my favorites consist of international trading and ecommerce. Not only does Michael come off as a genuine, trustworthy host – but he does a great job in choosing other like-minded genuine guest speakers who provide real world advice and stories that hit close to home. Their stories have motivated me to start getting involved with international business. I truly enjoy listening to the Global from Asia podcast and would certainly recommend it to anyone interested in international business or doing business with China.”

Thanks Heaps For the Podcast
★★★★★
“ Hi Michael. My name is Narinda and i live in Australia. Looks like the global summit [correction: should be Cross Border Summit] was awesome. Its my dream to go to China and improve my Amazon business. I love your podcast so thank you heaps for that”
- Narinda Sandry

What a Relief!
★★★★★
“ I was really worried. Do you know anyone that just exit Shenzhen, walk across the immigration to the HK side and then turn around to re-enter Shenzhen? I’m wondering if you can get away with that. Your blog is so great and informative. Thank you for doing that. It benefits so many people. You must have put a lot of work into doing it. I know how time consuming and difficult to write and maintain a blog.”
- Silvia Comeau

Best Business Podcast for Entrepreneurs in China
★★★★★
“ I stumbled across the Global from Asia podcast by accident almost a year ago now and I’m very glad I did. I’ve listened to every episode since and have gained a huge amount of knowledge in the process. Michael provides an authentic and insightful view of business in China & Hong Kong, particularly for those within the entrepreneurial space, and his range of guests he interviews are always fascinating, bringing with them a fresh perspective on what can be a very complex region.”
- ShaunCunningham

Your Site Is Wonderful
★★★★★
“ Reminds me a bit of mixergy.com but for Amazon in China, great stuff!! Thanks for what you’re doing, I’m a newbie for Amazon but selling on Alibaba, looking to expand into Amazon also. Taking notes and paying attention!”
- Irv in Zhejiang

Hands down the best Podcast on how to do business out of China and Hong Kong!
★★★★★
“ Michael’s podcast is choc-full of great interviews with folks who either have set up their business in China or Hong Kong, or representatives from Companies based in China/HK that can help you. Each episode provides awesome advice and clever tips from the people who have already gone through the grind, made some mistakes – info that’ll help you navigate your way through the “maze” quickly and relatively stress free. From setting up a company and bank acccount in Asia, to international logistics (and tons more besides) this is an absolute, “must listen” podcast. 5 Stars from me.”
- Chris at Hibermate

Thanks for Email Course
★★★★★
“ I also want to thank you for the Global from Asia podcast as I enjoy listening and find the blog fun, intriguing, and educational. I am now in a situation where I believe that a HK company might be right for me, however I greatly appreciate any advise. I am excited about the future and look forward to always learning and growing. I am not sure if this is the right email address to reply to but thank you and keep on keeping on.”
- Eric

this is one podcast I’ve kept subscribing to!
★★★★★
“ I listen to a lot of podcasts: I have a habit of subscribing and unsubscribing after a couple of episodes, but this is one podcast I’ve kept subscribing to! It’s refreshing to hear an entrepreneur talking completely honestly with specific tips, advice about starting a business in China/Hong Kong/Asia. I know a lot of people are interested in setting up a company or doing business in this growing part of the world – there’s a lot of BS and out-dated advice out there but this podcast keeps it totally real. Highly recommend (and check out Michael Michelini’s books too – they continue the mix of personal journey plus actionable advice)”
- AC8888HK in Hong Kong

A must listen if you are into ecommerce and sourcing from China
★★★★★
“ Thank you for the show! I have been following it for almost a year and always get out some very useful and practical informations that I was not able to find elsewhere. Also the variety and caliber of people being interviewed ensure that topics are revisited but always with a different angle. More of the same please!”
- TomTom1300 from United Kingdom

Just Want to Say Thanks
★★★★★
“ Just wanted to reach out and thank you for the great content. I started listening your GFA podcast because I am fairly advanced down the track of trying to producing an original multiple component product china (agent, samples, prototype etc). Something I have been working on for a while and am very passionate about. Hard work though. I stumbled into your GFAE series a couple of weeks ago and have found it to be a bit of an eye opener. Only up to ep. 21, can’t wait to see how it works out! I am still committed to finishing my product but am now looking seriously at getting some basic FBA action going as well (I hope the GFAE series has a happy ending!!!!). Keep up the good work, if things start to move perhaps I’ll even make it to a Cross Border event in the future. Cheers”
- Iain

Thanks for The contacts and help
★★★★★
“ Was an invaluable experience, Mike helped guide me to the best decision for me and my companies, and the resources available in China and Hong Kong.” It was great to talk to you too! Yes, the information you provided was invaluable! Thank you so much for the introductions, I will follow up on them. Thank you for the contract, it’s greatly appreciated! I’ll be sure to keep it to myself. I look forward to joining the community of individuals trading in Asia!”
- Matt Kowald

Resourceful and Super Fun!
★★★★★
“ I Love everything Michael produces. From his blogs, to his ebooks, to the Podcasts. Every time I read or listen to Micahel’s content I come out feeling more knowledgeable and ready to get back into the hustle of doing business with my Chinese counterparts. Excellent Podcast highly recommended!”
- Omar Abu

A knowledgeable, humble host spills the beans on Hong Kong
★★★★★
“ Michael knows what he’s talking about. His expertise on Hong Kong is only matched by his humbleness about it. What he knows, he shares and what he doesn’t, he’s honest about. It makes his advice and voiced thoughts a lot more dependable than others who’s main objective is to only appear knowledgeable (even at the cost of authenticity or potential misinformation). If you’re thinking of doing business with Hong Kong and other places in the region, his podcast is a great place to get started.”
- Karsten From Thailand

Must Listen to Podcast For China business
★★★★★
“ If you looking to do business in China or move to China this is the one podcast you need to listen to. Having been there for over 10 years Mike interviews a variety of guests from importing, exporting, hiring Chinese employees, Amazon FBA, cross border payments and setting up Hong Kong companies for tax advantages. This is your go to weekly digest in doing business in asia.”
- Lawster101

So greatful for friendship
★★★★★
“ You need to go to China to meet this man. Or hear him on his podcasts, I guess. Michael is amazing. And does amazing things. Started building businesses in China in his 20’s and continues to do more and more epic things. He broke into the world of the unknown: MAINLAND CHINA through tenacity and a positive outlook- and helps other entrepreneurs figure it out too. I got to join him on a Trade Zone trip in Shenzhen and my world got even bigger and the dots continue to connect. It’s amazing what he is in the middle of and I’m grateful I got to be immersed in what China is becoming. Just you wait… Keep being you!”
- Amy Elizabeth Call

Fabulous for all those NOT living in the US
★★★★★
“ Michaels podcast is one of the best. He provides a really different perspective than so many of the others that are very American centric and tend to revisit the same stuff. I have heard things on Global from Asia that I have never heard anywhere else and I’ve listened to over 1000 ecommerce and Amazon selling podcasts because of the guests he interviews. I always wish they were longer !!!!”
- Mummarin from Australia

didn't expect Such Amazing value
★★★★★
“ My friend introduced himself to you last week in Irish Pub in Futian. I checked your YouTube channel and also your website and I can say that honestly, I didn’t expect so many motivational videos and blogs, which are truly helpful, since I’ve just moved to Shenzhen. People like you are much needed in today’s world, the ones that inspire and motivate people with their own stories. When things get tough, I will watch your videos again and again for sure. Thank you for sharing your story and thank you for doing your best to help others. I wish you a lot of success with your work, I truly hope that your business will grow and become global.”
- V.B.

Enjoyed your Video Course
★★★★★
“ I really enjoyed your video course [Hong Kong Supercharged]! Currently I am studying International Business Administration in Vienna. During my summer brake I am planning to go to Hong Kong. Your video course strengthened me in that decision! I am writing you in the hope that you could give me some tips how and where to start looking for an internship. What really interests me is the e-commerce business! I would appreciate some information or contacts from your side a lot! Drinking a beer with you in Hong Kong would be high on my agenda. Corresponding to the beer I would love to bring you a cigar from my last trip to Cuba. Enjoy your weekend! Best regard from Vienna”
