Description
Hello, it’s Mike and Dave! This is our first official podcast together. We figured a good first episode was to compare notes about our experiences with doing business in and with China. Dave and I both import our products from China and for the most part, we’ve both had great results from it. This topic will be a two-parter. Today we answer some questions about China. If you are thinking about getting into importing from China or any other foreign country, this two-part series will hopefully prepare you for what to expect. Here are some of the points we discussed today: When did we start importing from China? How the market has changed since we started our importing. Why China really is “the factory of the world.” What it is like to import from other countries, besides China. Dave’s tips for optimizing your inventory costs. The benefits of having a large product catalog. What we hate about doing business with China. What we love about doing business with China. Just a reminder, I am speaking at some events this year. Here is a list of those events. Ecommerce All Stars -- Austin, TX, August 4-5. Global Sources -- Hong Kong, October 17-19. EcommerceFuel Live -- Laguna Beach, CA, January 11-13, 2018. Also, keep in mind we are launching an Ecom Crew course around September. If you are interested in being part of that visit www.ecomcrew.com/course, if you sign-up we’ll let you know when the course is ready.
