Talk with the Real People.

Call manufacturers directly - this can help you get in touch with the very best of their retail suppliers, and if you can call and say "Hi, I'm Mike. Gary from Precision Manufacturing gave me your number and told me you are the man to talk to about...".

Use Online Wholesale Directories

Doba lists over 8,000 of the very best suppliers on the web such as :-

  • i-citymall.com (NextCom Studio Technologies)
  • xoticpc.com (Xotic PC)
  • buydig.com (BuyDig)
  • amatteroffax.com (A Matter of Fax)
  • SuperDigitalCity.com (SuperDigitalCity)
  • WorldJewels.com (WorldJewels)
  • gsmliberty.net (Gsm Liberty Inc)
  • monoprice.com (Mono Price)
  • newegg.com (Newegg Inc.)
  • computerlx.com (Computer LX)
  • ibuypower.com (iBuy Power)
  • markertek.com (Market Tech)

Go Beyond the Internet.

There are other ways to find great suppliers - try trade magazines and trade shows - a great way to build all-important relationships with suppliers.

Avoid any Suppliers who Charge Extra Fees.

This will help to keep your costs per unit down and there are plenty of suppliers out there who will not charge any extra fees such as monthly memberships or charges to access their web site's store - you wouldn't pay a supermarket to look around at what they have to offer would you? So don't do it with any suppliers!

Be Prepared to Ppend a Lot of Time Do Conducting Pricing Research.

This is absolutely essential for all retailer sellers. Top sellers differ from other sellers in that they understand the amount of time that goes into pricing research and they get stuck in and do it! Pricing research will help you to determine whether it is possible for you to compete in a particular market.* Go for suppliers who offer a guarantee or warranty for all items they sell to you. This is very important for keeping your costs down and profits up, as if you end up with a few faulty items, you need to be able to return them to your supplier, rather than refund your buyer yourself. This also helps to increase your sales as it gives buyers confidence in your products and your customer service. Usually, the warranty will be between you and the supplier - meaning if the items proves to be faulty, your buyer will return it to you then you will return the item to your supplier for a refund or exchange.

Import Your Items

You can save (and make!) a lot of money by importing goods from abroad. Countries such as in Asia are much cheaper to produce items in than Western countries which means you can make a lot of money when you sell them in your own country.
