| About | To help us, we need a serious local agent (not a distributor, nor a wholesaler, nor a trading company) who has a good experience, a good import/export skill and very important who has a good business address book. I explain: We are two french associates, computing engineering graduated and also alibaba? S free member. Alibaba was for us a revolutionary concept which has linked the East and the West for business purpose. It has placed special focus to supplier everywhere in the world and easy Access to foreign supplier. Moreover, alibaba. Com is a beautiful virtual place to find ideas and products to sell. However, at this time we think this model has some limitation and we want to try another way to extend this concept. 1. Problems for buyer are: - Language - Formality - Difficulty to determine total Price including shipping, VAT and Custom fees - Samples - Trust - Payment terms - Distance Problems for sellers are: - Language - Samples - Trust - Update selling lead with new products - Reply buying lead - Manage inquiries for samples 2. Our Goal We want to change the rules. In France, we want to start the first samples showroom which will be the window in EU of china suppliers? Products. Our company will propose different services? Packages to help buyers and sellers to handle these barriers. 3. Our concept First of all, you have to understand that we don? T want to be another wholesaler. We don? T want to impose the products that we will select ourselves. On the contrary, the concept is to enable the Suppliers to send the following messages to buyers:? Hey man, I have these products to propose, are you interested?? How? Instead of sending samples to each request, the supplier will send us samples and could inform the buyer that samples could be viewed and tested in our office. These samples will not be sold without supplier agreement. In parallel, we will build a communication system to inform all potential buyers that they will be able to visit and test the products in our showroom. Then, for interested buyers, we will offer them our different packages to help them to conclude the transactions. 4. Why we need local agent's help? Alibaba. Com propose a multitude of products and we are not able to receive all samples so we need to select some products categories before, then we will count on serious agents to propose some products from the categories. To stay impartial, we need to have a qualified partner in China who could select the correct supplier, the correct products, to check and guarantee the quality of the item and the serious of the sellers and of course who could negotiate prices. Moreover, for each concluded Transactions, we will need that our partner manage all the China? S side operation (products control, shipping negotiation, etc? ) then we will manage reception? S operation. 5. Business Revenue For each concluded transactions, we will stay transparent and will give buyers the detailed prices with our commission (included agent's commission part and ours). We will demonstrate to the buyers that they will gain if they use our services. You should understand that we will gain only for concluded transactions. With suppliers, agent, we should have a win-win-win team. 6. Our market We want to start this project by China and France markets because this is the easiest way to start. Moreover, we think that China is the ideal country to find products because we think that it is the first or at least the second country where new products arrive. In the future, we would be able to open the concept to other markets. If you are interested or if you want to know more about us or our running project, please let us know. |
