B2b Marketplace of Global Trade Leads for Importers and Exporters
Category: Import and Export | Dec 10, 2009 |
Trading is described as the intentional exchange of goods only, services only, or both. It started out as the direct barter of goods and services. Nowadays, traders utilize money as its medium of exchange.
Because of modern technology, trading now becomes easier. You do not have to be meeting the exporter, importer, manufacturer, wholesaler or supplier in person. Transaction can now be made through the internet. Buying from the different suppliers can be made by browsing the different products of the different manufacturers. On the other hand, if you are selling your merchandise, you can make a product catalog and post them in the net to be readily accessible to whoever is interested in them.
There are several online services that aid in connection between buyers and sellers wherever they are throughout the world. Tradenote.net e-Marketplace is among them. And they offer their service for free. All the interested manufacturers should do is to register its company.
Sellers, exporters, suppliers, wholesalers or manufacturers can promote their product through the Tradenote.net e-Marketplace. The process is so easy. First, register the company name and viola! You get a free website, you can create the product catalog which will be available online, you can post an advertisement for the product you are selling and you can get inquiries through email from international buyers. All members who registered for free can now post and advertise up to 30 trade leads or tradeleads and 30 products. And here’s more, if you opt to be a paying member, you get to post more products and at the same time the company is given a higher rank in searches, and their products are advertised more.
On the other hand, the site also requires buyers to register before getting the chance to buy any product. Buyers can now search and choose through the site the products that the different sellers have posted. It is now easier for them to select the suitable seller through the company directory, who offers the right package. All they need is to submit the buying application. Likewise, these buyers can also make their list of merchandise that they are interested to purchase by submitting inquiries. Then the buyer will now be receiving alerts from other traders who wish to start business with them.
Tradenote.net e-Marketplace’ mission is to advertise and at the same time consolidate various services and resources into one site. In this way, small to medium-sized companies will be able to compete and penetrate international trade and global trade. Even small businesses have the chance to go international.

nice 5 star
At this time the Internet is not taxed in the US. You do not need a license to do an online business.
However if you plan to ship books or materials to the students you might have to pay extra. You can get around that by trying to find all your materials somewhere like Amazon.com (get an affiliate acount and you can still get some money off of what the students purchase there). Or, if you make your own materials for the class, consider making them somewhere like CafePress.com so that its a US company shipping them (mention OddThotz as a reference if you create a CafePress shop)
nice glitch
there are people who are exporting andhave just one room office in their house. they don't have any manufacturing unit or any godown, but they surely have the market knowledge and demand of the overseas buyers.
Products like handicraft items, homefurnishing, fashion accessories, arificial & immitation jewelery, cotton bags, rugs & carpets and lot many products are manufactured in remote areas of India and can be sourced from there.
but to choose a product you have to analyse few parameters like which country you want to target & products which have high demand in overseas market…. you can get this details from htttp://www.cybex.in
unfortunately, you need connections. i have a the same degree and the only job that i could even get an interview with were sales positions. it sucks that you can't get a job without experience, but you can't get experience without a job! my suggestion is to get an internship in this field during your last semester. if you can't find one in import/export, just get one in another business field. any experience (whether paid or not) is better than none.
good luck!
You can't do it unless you have a home base.You need tractors trailers,drivers,you need alot of money to do this.One tractor trailer combination unit alone used would cost you a small fortune.You need a license to open the business, insurance and the list goes on and on.I would venture to say at least $500,000 to get started.You would be better off to be an oo (owner operator) and drive coast to coast.I thought about doing it,and my father drove he said even oo's don't make much $ any more,he told me to drive for UPS one rout back and forth.Really good money.Especially double trailers,like go to NJ,spend the night,drive back,hook,drive back,spend the night,over and over.Depends on where you drop and hook,that's just an example.But it would always be the same rout,talk about easy money,and you work a week then 3 days off,then over and so on.
You might check with your bank to see if they have an ExIm department. They can give you some advice on the licensing and provide the necessary Letters of Credit, etc.
I don't know if this site is any good, but it seems to be marketing to you….

Be aware that there are very complicated export licensing laws and there is a lot of liability for criminal violations if you mess up. But, since you are an accountant, you are probably very detail-oriented.
Try contacting exporters and importers in your area, send an email to sell@epog.org for information
You don't. That field is covered by regular companies, and if anybody claims they can "set you up" in homebased import/export they are LYING!
I've heard this is a good business. You should start getting some information from places like http://www.sitesell.com/salary.html , and just soak in all the information you can. Good luck, and thank me later!
