CTC Service Menu:

Professional Due Diligence & Certification Services: Like America, China is full of scammers and professional con artists, both Chinese locals and foreigners. Their frauds are sophisticated and often appear to be very legitimate. Forged documents and photos are frequently used to support non-existent connections ("Guanxi"). There are over 2,000 "front-fee consultants" in Beijing alone- only 29 of them are legitimate. Our database of fraudsters now exceeds 28,000 individuals and companies in 23 Provinces of China, Canada,The U.K., and the United States. Likewise, we will be able to vouch for you with an endorsement when businesses and individuals inquire about the safety and risks of doing business with your company. Be safe not sorry!     (Non-Member: $5,000)
Professional Referral Services: Whether you need a reliable & trustworthy lawyer, nanny, accountant, language instructor, banker, driver, travel agent, mover, spa, golf club, or real estate agent, we will provide you the names and contact numbers of the companies/individuals with the least number of complaints filed (Very few companies have zero complaints!) connections ("Guanxi"). Again, many fraudsters waiting to take advantage of your ignorance as the "new guy in town" and many even have luxury offices/store fronts that would fool even the police! We will provide you three referrals per month and refer your company when inquiries are received. Members always get preferential endorsements over non-members.     (Non-Member: $500)
Professional Visa, Translation, Corporate Services & Virtual Offices: Do you need to open an office in China, Canada, America, or the U.K.? We can assistant you with full or partial services to make sure you are legally registered and have a professional presence. We can provide a staffed office or merely accept/forward your calls and mail. When you or your staff need working or business visas (or extensions) we provide quick service at reasonable costs – all without fear of being swindled. Need a translator? Whether it be for a meeting or documents, we can help with a competent translator on short notice. Succeeding abroad is not easy if you do not have the right paperwork, image, or you cannot communicate!     (Non-Member: Call)
Joint Venture, Distributor, & Funding Facilitation: Do you need a reliable and honest partner, distributor, or investor in China, America, Canada or the U.K.? We can usually find you an acceptable match with a verifiable history of performance. Thus far we have been 76% successful. Our fee is based on a percentage and contingent upon success. Our staff of business specialists will work diligently to screen out the frauds and problems so you can meet potential applicants with a good degree of confidence without wasting valuable time with aggravating BS.     (Non-Members: Call for requirements and a meeting)
   Professional Cross-Cultural & Language Training: Do you know how Chinese business people think or expect from you? Do you know how to avoid major deal-killing embarrassment and mistakes? Do you know how to meet, wine & dine, and handle requests for bribes? Reading books on this subject will not get you past first base. We can provide you 1-3 full days of professional training. If you don't take this training you will probably join the 60% of foreigners who go home frustrated within 6 months! We provide the same training to Chinese businessmen wanting to do business in the West. This training will eliminate many misunderstandings and can mean the difference between success and failure. This our most popular program.    (Non-Member: $1,000 per day)
Professional Covert Quality Control & Corruption Checks: Once you have a partner overseas, you need to know that they are not cheating your company, a very common problem overseas. We can find out for you by sending our experienced people to pose as potential customers and/or employees. You'd be surprised how quickly your new partner might cheat you for some quick bribe money. We can also evaluate customer service levels and ethical business practices (or lack of). For example how long does it take a sales person to Call a prospect after an inquiry is made? We'll tell you if your employees friendly, courteous, and professional.    (Non-Member: Call for pricing)
   Professional Scholarship, Job, & Intern Placement Service: Want to study or work abroad in China, America, Canada, or the U.K.? We can make things a lot easier for you with our network of members all over the world who often require interns or bi-lingual employees in a variety of career fields. We will also process the mountain of paperwork that is often required in English and/or Chinese. We cannot always guarantee success since this mainly depends on the qualifications and experience of the applicant, but thus far we have a success rate of 68%. We also work with agencies in America, Canada, Australia, and the U.K. to place qualified candidates with full time employment and internships in China. Need a foreign employee? Contact us!     (Non-Member: Call for an application)
Professional Concierge, Emergency, & Social Services: When traveling abroad do you need a tour guide, escort, massage, concierge, bodyguard, limousine, florist, hotel room, apartment, travel agent, or other services provided on a discreet and affordable basis? Can't find a certain medication or don't know how to ask for Viagra or some special entertainment? Have a problem with the local police? We can discreetly handle all of these matters for you on relatively short notice at reasonable pricing, without ever revealing your identity.     (Sorry this service is only available to our members)
   Professional Immigration & Emigration/Expatriation Service: Want to live, study, work, or move abroad to China, America, Canada, or the U.K.? Trying to do this on your own is almost impossible and a nightmare of paperwork. We can make this important journey easier, cheaper, and less stressful for you and your family. We have helped over 300 families successfully since we started offering this service five years ago. Whether you need permanent residence status or want citizenship, our contacts will give you a better chance of success. The bulk of our fees are contingent upon your success.    (Non-Member: Call for an application)
Professional Asset Expatriation/Protection & Legal Tax Avoidance: Want to shelter your earnings from taxes or move your funds with the least penalties? We have various safe ways to do so and we can even help you acquire properties with financing if required. We can also provide you with instant credit in America or Canada. Our asset expatriation and protection staff are quite resourceful and successful in providing, discreet and timely service. Please keep in mind that what may be illegal in Western countries is legal in China and vice versa. Knowing the laws and the exemptions, and the loopholes, makes all the difference between paying 30% or 5% in taxes, and where and how you can repatriate your own money without penalties.    (Non-Member: Call)
   Professional Collection & Aribitration Services: If an when you get swindled, cheated, or simply become a victim of non-payment by a local Chinese or foreigner, do not waste your money on lawyers, until we sit down and talk. Unlike most venues, the rule of law does not often prevail. Suing someone in America or China can take years and thousands of dollars. Thus far we have been 87% successful in our collection efforts since 2006. We have also been providing professional and fair arbitration services since 1996.

Community Affairs & Social Responsibility Programs: As you will soon learn, doing business within different cultures can be very frustrating and slow-paced. Relationships based on personal friendships and trust is the key in China and the quickest way to establish good-will and remove the fears that you are only interested in short term gains, is to participate in some community affairs programs as a sponsor or co-sponsor. The CTC regularly designs and sponsors such programs like those  listed HERE and our current CREATIVE KIDS SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM. No matter what culture you are from we are all parents and can relate to children. Most all of our programs are designed to help child development in the arts, sports, skills, or education.    (Non-Member: Call)
Just like America, China has many professional con-artists and scammers that prey on foreigners and "newbies". No matter what you are told, do not sign any contracts or transfer any moneys until you read this article here, and obtain a professional due diligence report on the people you are planning to do business with. The CTC has identified over 1,239 scams in China and over 847 in the West. Some of these frauds are very believable and supported with forged documents. Be safe - not sorry!
