How It Works What Product Sourcing Research is, and Why You Need It

The Biggest Question in ECommerce:

All the experts agree that the most-asked, and most important question in ECommerce is, "Where do I find products to sell online?"

The answer is simple: RESEARCH. However, while the answer may be simple, the actual research is not. It's extremely important to work with only Genuine, Factory-Authorized Wholesalers of the products you want to sell. If you don't, you'll pay too much for your products, and your competition will beat you every time. Finding those GENUINE Wholesalers is a lot harder than it may seem.

The Scammers know where you Search:

• The major Search Engines contain literally thousands of web sites run by Scam Artists who CLAIM to be real Wholesalers, but are NOT. They simply get in between you and the real Wholesaler, and raise your wholesale prices. They're very good at looking like real Wholesalers, and they fool a lot of people. They know they're cheating you, and they don't care.

• There are also dozens of "wholesale lists and directories" in the Search Engines. Their sites look very convincing as well. They make outrageous promises and sell junk "lists and directories" full of useless and outdated information at cheap prices. However, ALL THEY REALLY WANT is your personal contact information, so they can SELL your personal information to thousands of other internet marketers and "coaching" programs that will rip you off for thousands of dollars.

• REAL Factory Authorized Wholesalers generally do not advertise in the Search Engines. These are large Wholesale companies, and they don't believe it's worth their time and effort to advertise to small home-based business owners. They WILL work with you if you can find them, though.

For these reasons, looking for Wholesale Suppliers in the Search Engines is a waste of time. The Scammers know you're searching there, and that's where they focus their efforts. The real Wholesalers aren't there to begin with.

REAL Product Sourcing Research:

We are in the Wholesale Research and Verification business. Product Sourcing is what we do, full time.

We do the Product Sourcing Research, so you don't have to.

Over the past seven years, we have Researched tens of thousands of companies that claim to be Wholesalers.

Some companies we've Researched are real Wholesalers, and some are not. When we find Wholesale Suppliers that are real Wholesalers, we Research them even further. Our Full-Time Research Team talks personally with each and every one of them, to determine whether they are a good fit for our database.

We have very high standards, and even many companies who are real wholesalers don't "make the cut" to get listed in our database. Our Researchers' ONLY job is to qualify more and more legitimate Wholesale Suppliers who will agree to work with Home-based Internet Business Owners like you. Our staff works on that Research five days a week, all year 'round.

Here's How We Do It:

Step 1: Raw Materials

• We buy specialized raw contact lists of thousands of manufacturers and wholesale suppliers from large Lead Generation companies like Dunn & Bradstreet and InfoUSA. These raw data lists cost thousands of dollars each. The raw data is new and different each time. Each time we purchase raw leads, we choose 6 product markets to research, such as Sporting Goods, Baby Products, Electronics, etc. Each time after that, we choose 6 new categories.

When we buy this raw data, there is no way to know which of these companies is willing to Drop Ship, Light Bulk Wholesale, Liquidate, provide Instant Wholesale Buys, or even work with Home-based Internet Businesses at all. It is simply a huge amount of RAW CONTACT DATA on companies who make and wholesale products.

• We also attend the largest and most diverse Wholesale Trade Shows across the entire United States. Wholesale Trade shows are a great place to interact personally with large numbers of companies who may be willing to Drop Ship and/or Light Bulk Wholesale for your Home-based Internet Business.

There are hundreds of these shows every year, but only a few of the really big ones matter. The small ones are little more than glorified flea markets, which are not suitable places to find Manufacturers and Wholesalers for a continuous source of products to sell online. Because of that, we don't waste our time sitting around our local area waiting for dozens of cheap "gift and trinket" shows to come to us. We travel the country, from Atlanta to New York to Las Vegas to Los Angeles and more, meeting the REAL Players in this business at the REAL Wholesale Trade Shows. As a result, we bring back thousands of leads for our Research Team to follow up on.

There is NO other source of information in this business that can honestly claim to use both these methods to their full potential as extensively and effectively as we do!

Step 2: Initial Contact

We have our own in-house Research Team and Call Center. Our own Researchers know exactly the kind of Wholesale Suppliers you need for your Home-based Internet Business. Those Researchers telephone each and every Wholesale Supplier we find on our purchased Contact Lists and at Wholesale Trade Shows, over and over if necessary, until they speak to someone at each Wholesale Supplier.

Then they ask a series of questions that determines whether each company might be a good fit for our database. Each day, our Researchers review information with each other on those Suppliers.

Step 3: Qualification

Our in-house Research Staff then places a return call to each of those potential Suppliers who are approved by our Research Supervisor, and talks to those companies at length. If a Wholesale Supplier meets with our Researchers' initial approval process, they must fill out an extensive questionnaire. Then the Researchers verify the answers to those questions.

If that verification meets our approval, our Researcher will call them again with a final round of questions. Then the Researcher will do a final check into the company's background.

Once we decide that a Wholesale Supplier passes all of our more than twenty qualifications for Final Approval, a Corporate Officer of that company must sign an Agreement that guarantees compliance with all of our Qualifications.

Step 4: Final Processing

Finally, we load all of the verified Wholesale Supplier's product line, brand name information and contact details into our database and make the new supplier LIVE in our database.

As you can see, we are VERY serious about the quality of the information our company provides. We are NOT just some guy sitting in his basement, selling a worthless list of Search Engine Returns that took him an hour to put together. This full time Research is WHAT WE DO FOR A LIVING every day. It's our business. Our families, and the families of our employees depend on the quality we put into our work. We do not compromise that quality for any reason, ever!
