To anybody considering Min Min,

I can't say enough good things about Min Min. I run a small business in the United States and this past Januray (2010) was my first time visiting China. Myself and two other people were traveling there with the goal of creating a new product. Needless to say there was a lot to learn and do before we got there. Min Min researched factories that might be able to manufacture our product. She contacted them prior to us arriving, weeded out the bad ones and set up meetings with the legitimate ones. She coordinated EVERYTHING for us. I don't know if you quite understand how big of a relief that is. She had train tickets waiting for us, drivers reserved for the days we had to travel where trains did not and the local knowledge to take a taxi when nothing more was needed. We really had to worry about absolutely nothing except for talking with the factories once we were there.

When it came to the translating during the meetings she was perfect. She understood everything we were saying. She even got our sarcasm which is a true sign that she understands English very well. We never had to talk slow or repeat ourselves. It was like talking with a co-worker from the United States. She paid attention and after the 2nd or 3rd factory she knew exactly what we wanted. So from then on we'd all walk in and Min Min would just start talking on behalf of our company. She caught on very quickly to all the little things we were looking for. She certainly has dealt with tough businessmen before and had no problem handing herself.

I could truly write another 5 paragraphs about how great of an experience we had with her. Point is our product is being made as I type this. She is honest, on time, a hard worker and fun to be around. One experience best sums up Min Min: During one of our factory visits we were talking with a "middle man" regarding manufacturing our products. The moment we left the factory the middle man called Min Min and told her that if she could get us to do business with him he'd give her a percentage of the profits. Obviously we are all aware this stuff happens. BUT the point is Min Min immediately made us aware of the situation without ever thinking twice about taking the deal. She was appaled that the guy would even think she'd do something like that to her clients. And she could have made a lot of money off that deal.
