I have been doing this business for the past 10 months without any success..It's acting as a agent for customers who want to buy or sell their products. Can anyone help me to do business the right way.

I look forward to some help

I am interested in learning what you are doing so far to help your buyers and sellers and what products you are selling or buying, and lastly what markets you are selling into or buying out of.


It sounds as if you are a Broker, selling the goods of others, if this is the case I need to know if you are attempting to sell via the internet, phone, in person...


When acting as a buyer what are you buying and in what quantities are you buying?


The answers to these questions will certainly help me send you in the right direction.

First off, if your acting as an agent, its going to be quite difficult to get your start unless you actually have established contacts in a particular field of products.  Prospective clients (buyers and sellers) need to know what value added service you are going to bring to the table with you.

To help you further, I need to understand your concept of what an agent actually is and does.

I have been a sourcing agent for over 27 years and I can tell you that clients will not just come to you and trust that you can help them.  Your going to need some references from people that know you and know what your capable of doing.  Once established word of mouth is your best advertising or can lead to your dimise, as there is nothing better than a satisfied client that talks of their success with other business people. 

The fact is that much of the business that has sustained me over these 27 years is word of mouth and the fact that clients both buyers and sellers keep coming back to me as they expand their product lines and supplier or customer base.

My advice, is if you dont know how to or have an understanding of the following things that you look to first to work with an already established agency to gain experience and contacts:

1. Complete due diligence reports
2. Understand International contract law (specifically contract law in the suppliers country)
3. Negotiation of contracts
4. Alternative payment methods and how they work as well as alternative financing of products
5. logistics
6. Export and Import customs laws
7. Getting Paid 

Thes are but a few basics but without them your not even ready to start.  Like I said earlier you need to have certain value added skills that you can bring to the table for your clients.
