Job Opportunity: How To Start Your Importation Business

Yes, You Can Do It

Well, it is true that you have to pay for information sometimes but not all the time.I learnt about importation myself. I did not pay anybody. This is why I am ready to guide people through everything.
You can start importation today with any capital you have depending on what you want to import. There are a wide range of things to import from fashion products, jewelries, wristwatches, laptops, android tablets, phones etc. As a way of starting, there are a couple of popular site where u can import stuffs from China. One of them is www.aliexpress.com and www.dhgate.com .

Do Your Research

The truth is it is not as difficult as some people paint it. All you need is some careful research. If you intend importing stuffs to sell, then you have to do a good research to know the things that can easily be marketed. You can find so many things on the site that you may end up getting distracted which is why you have to be focused on importing the stuffs that have a good potential for selling here. I have sold so many things with 100% profit. In fact, that is my usual target. Sometimes, a little below that but most times above that. It depends on what I'm selling and who I'm selling to.

Know Your marketing Strategy and Pricing

The truth is that it depends on your marketing strategy. For example, you can import just some little quantity for a start so youu can show to people and you can start telling people about it using social media such as face book and BBM. As people get interested you can increase the quantity you order. This is the strategy I personally used and it worked for me. You can also sell stuffs on wholesales. In this case, you will sell it cheaper than you will sell it at the retail price but this is good because you will make your money instantly.
There are a lot of hot selling products but it still depends on creating the market for it. For example, there are a lot of cheap laptops on the site that u can sell for 20 to 25k and still make profit. U can go to secondary schools and market it to students and teachers since the truth is that most of them may not be able to afford the usual expensive laptops like the dell and HP laptops. If you can get a good one, you can easily market it to them.

Communicate With Supplier

In order to know a genuine seller, you have to make sure the seller has sold a good number of the products ‘cos you will need to go through the feedbacks sellers drop after the purchase. From the feedbacks, you will have an idea of the problems people are having with the products. Also the rating is important. I usually will not go for a supplier whose rating is less than 94%. Make sure you browse through before placing your order because difference suppliers sell the same products at diff prices so you should go for the supplier with the lowest price and who also have a good reputation.
Finally, make sure you chat with the supplier before placing your order to confirm if the goods are available and to be sure of the quality and also if he can send them to Nigeria. If he can't, you can always find another supplier of the products.

Payment System

You don't need PayPal neither do u need any special credit card. You can easily pay with your GTB naira MasterCard. If you don't have one, you can go open an account with them to get one.
Also, if you follow the due process, you cannot get scammed. Always pay only through aliexpress and don't ever try to pay the supplier directly. Aliexpress uses the escrow payment system. This system withholds your money after you have paid and will only release it to the supplier after you have confirmed that you have received your order and they are in good condition. Of not, you can always ask for a refund and if your claims are true
