Mailman Group is a technology and social media agency in China. Based in Shanghai, Mailman manages the digital presence of international brands in the sports, entertainment, and travel industries. One of the first agencies to enter the digital Chinese market, Mailman has pioneered many of China’s early technology and social media initiatives, aiding the growth of international brands on Chinese social media by allowing brands to pull content from Facebook and Twitter, sites that are banned in China, and publish directly onto Chinese social media.

Some of the more notable clients Mailman is trusted by include Liverpool F.C., Bundesliga, Manchester United F.C., the Ultimate Fighting Championship, Novak Djokovic and several teams from the National Football League and the Australian Football League.

History

Mailman Group was established in 1999 as Mailman China and focused mainly on postcard media. However, the name and focus changed when current CEO Andrew Collins acquired the company in 2007. Since the acquisition, the company, now Mailman Group, has gone completely digital and has been associated with the development of many other funds, projects and organizations.

Organization

Mailman consists of a variety of separate partnerships, investments and ventures that focus on the sports, entertainment, and tourism industries. They include:

Because of the Great Firewall, many key social media networks are blocked in China. KAWO is a social media management technology that lets brands get onto Chinese social media by integrating the key western social media channels, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, with key Chinese ones, Weibo, Tencent Weibo, and WeChat. KAWO gives brands digital access to over 600 million people by automatically pulling their existing Facebook and Twitter content onto a central dashboard, where moderators translate and then push it via KAWO directly on a brand’s Chinese social network accounts
