Carrie Anne Yu-
"I was born and grew up in Hong Kong. My first job after graduation was as a primary school teacher, then I worked in one of the longest-running overseas educational groups in Hong Kong in a manager position, and after only 3 months I became a vice-principal. This proved to be one of the most challenging times of my career, as I took responsibility to help my new company get out of a HKD 5 million (around USD $640,000) debt.
With no previous experience in business or marketing, I had to work hard to weigh all the strategies that could turn the company from loss to profit. However, in only one year, I was able to create an amazing result for this educational group. Not only was I able to get the company out of the red, but the CEO told me I had created a record revenue that brought the company into its most profitable year in its 15-year history.
As a result of my efforts in 2013 and 2014, MediaZone named this company as one of the most valuable companies of the year in 2015. Over the following 5 years, the CEO invited me back to work for him every year; however, after my time with this educational group ended, I travelled for a while to explore more possibilities in my career and then began my self-employment journey.
During these past years I’ve focused on business consulting and training for Fortune 500 companies. I published a book, Create Lifetime Loyal Customers, to share marketing insights with business leaders. I’ve been able to share my knowledge of business management in presentations all over China. Meanwhile, my content on the Wechat social media platform has reached an audience of over 100,000, and I was recognized as one of the Top 10 Wechat Influencers in the Hong Kong district. Additionally, I’ve been honored to be interviewed as a guest on GuangDong TV in 2017 and 2019.
As a speaker, I’ve had the chance to speak both locally and around the world—in 2019, I visited 8 countries. Travelling excites me because it gives me the chance to connect with thought leaders, business owners and entrepreneurs around the world. I love empowering people to start and grow their dream businesses, no matter how big or small. I’m grateful for the trust that many business owners and entrepreneurs have placed in me as a profit strategist. Following my consultation, many businesses that have been struggling for over a year have seen success in just a few months.
My experience has allowed me to start my own company, Yu Ignite Ltd, which helps foreign businesses enter the Chinese market effectively. We also provide marketing solutions and business growth training, in one-on-one or group environments.
I’ve created a few online courses to empower people to start a business, in English and in Cantonese."
