| 1- Quality of the communication and prodcuts information |
When talking about wholesalers, we are talking about professionals. Most of them are managing huge stocks and are not common with being friendly. Just imagine an hundred faxes and phone calls per day, with customers asking you to always give them lower prices (Yes, that’s you!).
However it can be stressful, wholesalers know that a single price error can be fatal to their business. If you loose by mistake 50 cents on each 2,500 products sold, the total loss is 1,250 $. A company cannot handle such a loss two times in a year. Be sure that wholesalers know their job and are very accurate when spreading information.
The first thing you will be able to verify is their ability to communicate information. Maybe you will not get very friendly emails, but be sure that any information you will have asked will be given.
Think about something: scammers never have the products they are selling. If you ask a very technical question, a wholesaler will give you an accurate response, while a scammer will ignore it or will mumble about it.
A checking example: “Will the Ipod Nanos have the good AC/DC plug, I need the 220/240V European norm?”
The scammer’s answer will be: “Yes of course, we have the European models!”, when the professional’s one will be: “Since Nanos are charging via an USB 2.0 cable, power plug is an option. They will charge on any computer on earth equipod with USB 2.0. Language can be chosen at first start or changed later”.
Don’t hesitate to ask pitfalls questions like this one, you will immediately know who you are in contact with. You are a seller, all you want are sexy products, you are not assuming to know all about them, don’t fear to ask even silly questions.
