Pack your bags?

'Closer than you think'? Well, a non-stop flight from NYC to Shanghai is 15 hours plus another 100 miles to Hangzhou (Dahua/Hikvision/Uniview HQ), if that is closer than what you thought.

A new joint promotion by US distributor CCTV.net and mini-mega Chinese manufacturer, Uniview, is offering a 'free trip to China.' In this note, we examine the move, Uniview's sales and marketing problems, plus contrast it to Dahua and Hikvision trips to China.
