Vetting factories...
Negotiating with suppliers…
Ordering samples…
Navigating inspections…
Tracking the progress of your order...
All this adds up to A LOT of your valuable time, energy, and focus being drained on one area of your business.
And then you have the inevitable issues which always come up.
Your contact at the factory ‘goes dark’ and you have no communication for days on end…
Leaving you to stress and sweat over what’s happening with your order.
Your products arrive looking NOTHING like your specifications…
Which means going through the tiresome process of sending them back to the factory so they can start all over again.
Your order gets held up with failed inspections leaving you to try and sort it out by email or zoom without knowing the best resolution to move forward with...
So you’re now dealing with language barriers, time zones, foreign laws and a whole bunch of other stuff you did not sign up for when you started your Amazon Business.
All of this is going on when other areas of your business need your attention.
But what other options do you have?
You could hire a sourcing agent…
But you can’t be certain they’ll deliver.
You CAN count on them taking 5-10% commission on every order you make.
And will they even share the factory information with you?
You could hire and train a VA to handle your sourcing…
But with so many moving parts to the process and negotiations to be had that’s going to be close to impossible.
So what can you do?
