Gua Sha Wholesale FAQs and Answers, How to Better Guasha Wholesale?

As a gua sha wholesale supplier and factory, we will receive many questions from customers in our daily communication with customers. So we started to think about whether we can collect the questions of customers and answer them one by one, hoping to give some help to customers who have doubts in the wholesale process. Hence this article. In this article, we will focus on analyzing some of the most frequently asked questions from customers during the inquiry process, and explain the answers. Of course, this article is not only applicable to gua sha products, some of the content here can also give you some help when you wholesale other products. Now let’s officially enter the main text. 1. How to Gua Sha Wholesale? How Does the Wholesale Process Unfold? This is one of the more frequently asked questions by customers in their first emails. The specific wholesale process may be different for each company. But generally follow the following order: The above is the basic process of wholesale jade gua sha. Each supplier may be slightly different before each process. In addition, some customers asked whether it is possible to open a wholesale account? This is not a problem. In fact, we archive every customer, which is actually equivalent to opening a wholesale account. 2. Is the Gua Sha Board Pure Natural? If you are referring specifically to the jade gua sha, it is natural in our factory. However, many people will collectively call facial guasha “jade gua sha”. In this case, we cannot guarantee that it is all natural. Because with the development of the facial guasha industry, more and more materials are used in facial gua sha. In addition to natural crystal, jade materials. Our common facial guasha materials include stainless steel, glass, resin and plastic (obviously, these are not natural materials). You can indicate to the supplier what kind of gua sha it is when you ask, and the supplier should tell you what materials they use. Also, our company will specifically point you to non-natural materials for facial guasha when you inquire. 3. Can You Provide A More Favorable Price of About Gua Sha Wholesale?   Discounting is an issue that is mentioned by almost all customers, regardless of the number of products ordered. Regarding the issue of discount, the biggest key point is the profit margin of the supplier. When the supplier’s profit margin is sufficient, they will be willing to make appropriate price reductions for you. Generally speaking, the supplier will be willing to reduce the price for you when the following two situations occur: Ps: When the price reduction offered by the supplier is very small, it often means that it has reached the limit of the profit margin that the supplier can accept. If you want to apply for a price reduction again, it is very difficult. 4. Can the Logo of Jade Gua Sha be Customized? can! We provide jade gua sha logo customization service. We only charge for basic logo engraving. But not all logos we can provide engraving. Generally, we have the following requirements for the logo: 5. I Want to Receive the Goods At the End of This Month, Is It Possible? The issue of delivery time is also a frequently raised issue by many customers. Especially when the holidays are approaching. But there are many factors involved in delivery: When the conditions are met, it is perfectly feasible to deliver within one month. 6. I Want All Gua Sha to be the Same Color and Texture, Is That Possible? The answer is yes and no. The color of the guasha board mainly considers the material problem. If you need man-made materials such as stainless steel, plastic, etc., the same color and texture are completely feasible. But if you buy a gua sha made of natural crystal or jade, you need them to maintain the same color and texture, which is impossible. Due to its natural formation, natural crystal or jade has uneven distribution of its substances, so various patterns and colors will be formed. Especially for lapis lazuli, blue point stone and other stones with many different color blocks, it is a fantasy to want two stones to keep the same color and texture. Even black flash stones with relatively uniform colors cannot do it. So if you want all the guasha pads you buy to keep the same color and texture, the only solution is to buy face gua sha pads made of artificial materials. 7. Can I Pay Part of the Amount in Advance And Pay the Rest After Receiving the Goods? The payment method of advance payment + balance payment is usually acceptable to us. However, we generally only accept the pre-payment deposit before production, and then the production is completed, and the final payment is settled before delivery. We generally do not accept the balance payment after the delivery of the goods (unless it is a very long-term cooperation, and we will accept this payment method when we have full trust.) Under normal circumstances, the payment ratio of deposit + balance payment has the following three types: 1.30% deposit + 70% balance 2.50% deposit + 50% balance 3.70% deposit + 30% balance If we are cooperating for the first time, we may be more willing to accept the cooperation method of 70% deposit + 30% balance payment, but as our cooperation deepens, we may also accept 30% deposit or a lower deposit ratio. 8. Can I Get the Sample Before the Formal Order? Is It Free? No problem, it is perfectly feasible to provide samples before the formal order. We are so confident in the quality of our products that we are happy to provide you with samples. As for the price of the samples, usually we can provide it to you for free, you just need to pay the freight. But for those high-cost products, or customized products, we will charge a certain fee (but not more than its production cost). 9. After Receiving the Product, Can I Make A

When Should You Use Gua Sha? Recommend Gua Sha Tools and Sellers

With the vigorous development of the gua sha industry, everyone has more and more opportunities to come into contact with guasha. But do you know when to use Gua Sha? Or what symptoms should you use Gua Sha when you have symptoms? Today, we will analyze all the secrets of Gua Sha in all directions and angles! The History and Effects of Gua Sha The History of Gua Sha Gua Sha originated in China. Gua Sha has a long history. Gua Sha is a kind of Bianstone therapy or pricking therapy. It has been spread among Chinese people for a long time, and it has been passed down from generation to generation. According to legend, in ancient times, when human beings invented fire, they felt very comfortable when they found that the fire was roasting certain parts of the body when using fire for heating. Later, humans discovered that when the stone was heated to stimulate the body, it could cure the disease. Later, humans discovered that the abscess was punctured by heating with a Bianstone stone. Gradually, people at that time felt that using hot stones could cure some diseases. This is the prototype of “gua sha” treatment. In the Bronze Age, people invented metallurgical technology. With the development of metallurgical technology, iron can be smelted. Iron is finer than Bianstone. Humans at that time made iron like needles used by modern people. With the development of the theory of acupuncture and meridians, the folks began to use blunt-edged copper coins, spoons, porcelain cup lids, coins, jades, buttons and other instruments to repeatedly scrape the relevant meridians on the skin surface until red or purple blood stasis appeared under the skin spot, to achieve the method of conditioning. In continuous practice, it has been interpreted as a natural therapy – gua sha health therapy. The earliest written record of gua sha was written by Wei Yilin, a physician in the Yuan Dynasty, in 1337 AD. The earliest “sand” refers to a disease syndrome. Because of the red, purple or dark blue-like “sand”-like spots on the surface of the skin that have been scraped for many diseases, people gradually call this therapy “gua sha therapy”. Moreover, with the research of later generations, there are no less than dozens of medical books related to gua sha. Now, with the gua sha frenzy rolled up through various social media, gua sha has spread from China to the world and is known to more and more people. The Effects of Gua Sha Although guasha has a very long history, so far, there is not enough scientific research to prove many of the effects of gua sha. Most of the efficacy is the experience summed up in the clinical treatment of traditional Chinese medicine. In summary, gua sha has the following effects: As we said, the main power of Gua Sha is to improve our “Qi and blood condition”. Therefore, it has a certain effect in the face of some problems involving qi and blood. Such as muscle soreness, headache and other symptoms as well as beauty. The main reason why Gua Sha can set off a craze all over the world is also because of the miraculous effects it brings in beauty! Gua Sha includes but is not limited to the following cosmetic benefits: Gua Sha is indeed embraced by many people in terms of beauty. What’s more, it can not only improve the condition of your skin through its own effect, it can also enhance the effect of your other beauty products, and more importantly, it belongs to natural beauty! But gua sha is not a panacea, nor is it a tool that can bring you miracles. It can only improve your base, not directly give you a drastic change. If you want to make you different in the short term, Gua Sha can’t do it, maybe make-up and cosmetic surgery can. (But we do not recommend plastic surgery, the risk is too high, and it has serious sequelae. If it is not because of birth defects, please stay away from plastic surgery.) How do You Use Gua Sha Correctly? How to use Gua Sha depends on what purpose you want to achieve. It is generally analyzed from two perspectives: cosmetic and therapeutic. Cosmetic Generally divided into home beauty and professional beauty shop care. We only briefly describe the use of home beauty care here. If you want to experience a deeper level of gua sha beauty, please find a local beauty place that can provide guasha, and they will give you professional services. First, you must clean your gua sha tool before using it. Then, apply your favorite serum or cream to your face. Now, officially enter the Gua Sha tutorial: The above four methods can basically meet your daily gua sha and beauty needs. Treat Gua sha for treatment. We recommend not to try it at home, please go to a regular gua sha place for treatment. Because guasha for the purpose of treatment, the force used is much heavier than that of beauty. Only in this way can the force penetrate deep into the muscles and achieve the effect of treatment. This requires personnel with professional skills and experience. If you try it yourself at home, there is a chance of more serious injury. Not worth the loss. If you must do it yourself at home, please consult enough information and fully understand the technique of gua sha before you try it. Precautions for Gua Sha Before Use: During Gua Sha: Try to scrape according to the instructions, do not change the guasha method at will. If you feel discomfort during the gua sha process, you should stop it immediately, and if it is serious, please go to the hospital for treatment. After Use: Recommended Gua Sha Tools There are many gua sha tools on the market today. Different styles, different materials, varied. If we say which guasha tools are worth recommending, we will consider from two aspects: material and style. Material: At present, there

How to Market Assessment for Your Product in 2023

“Hey, I think there’s a market for this product and I’m going to open a store to sell this product”. Half a year later, due to poor sales, the product was unsalable, and the store had no choice but to close. Brutal but true. Sometimes we find something that might have market potential, and we’re so excited that we’re ready to act. Starting a business can be exciting, but it can also be a lot of work — if you do it right. Market analysis is one of the first hurdles you need to overcome when you’re taking a business or product idea out of your head and onto paper. An accurate market assessment is your first step towards a successful business. What is A Market Assessment? A market assessment (or analysis) is an assessment or study of the market available in a particular niche or industry. The term “market” broadly refers to the state of who and how many people buy and sell a particular product or service. The idea is to study the dynamics of the field in which you intend to do business. It contains many aspects. You need to understand who your customers are, their spending habits and specific needs, the size of the market and other businesses you will be competing with. Whether you are starting a brand new business or an existing business is looking to enter a new market, market assessment is one of the essential steps. It will provide real data support for your business, not empty “I think”. These are the questions you need to focus on: Benefits of Conducting A Market Assessment: There’s a good reason that most, if not all, business loan providers need a business plan that includes market analysis — and it brings a lot of benefits. Let’s take a look at some of the key benefits below: These are some of the many benefits you will gain from conducting a market assessment or appraisal. Disadvantages of Conducting A Market Assessment The benefits of conducting a market assessment cannot be overemphasized. But it’s not all glitter and rainbows – there are some downsides to running a market assessment, especially with your first business. Here are some common drawbacks: This isn’t an exhaustive list of potential headwinds for market assessments, but you shouldn’t take it lightly — each one could prove to be a challenging hurdle. However, in most cases, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages. How to Conduct A Market Assessment 1. Determine Market Conditions. The first part of your market analysis should contain an overview or description of the industry you wish to operate in. Take a look at where the industry is headed. These are the questions your market overview should answer. However, while this section is always at the front of the document, it can be done more easily after you’ve done other research. You have multiple channels to investigate market conditions, such as Google Trends and the Keyword Planner within Google Ads. They can easily show you the search growth and search index of your product over a certain period of time. You can use this to understand basic market or industry trends. 2. Research Your Target Customers. Who your product is for, or what type of product your target customers need. This is what we will focus on next. No matter how great you think your product is, you can’t serve everyone in the world. Trying to do this will waste a lot of time. Therefore, your best bet is to focus on the customer base most likely to be interested in your product – this will be your niche. You need to define your segmentation strategy to help you identify individuals within your target audience. Targeted segments help you narrow down your audience based on shared sets of characteristics, such as: Accurate analysis of your target audience can maximize your conversion efficiency, especially when you promote your products through paid advertising. 3. Conduct Competitor Analysis Another important market segment is your competitors – it’s hard to identify a market need that no business has already met. In this section, you need to research which businesses you will be competing with for customers. Some of the main areas you need to cover are: After you’ve researched each competitor, it’s helpful to rank them according to their threat level: the most serious to the least threat to your business. At the same time, you can also optimize your product promotion through competitor analysis. For example, if you are planning to open an online store, you can gain a lot of useful information by analyzing your competitors. With this information, you can optimize your product promotion. You can directly use your competitor’s keywords for promotion, you can learn from your competitor’s promotion channels, and you can learn from your competitor’s audience to divide an audience. With this content, you can save a considerable amount of trial and error costs. For example. As the leading gua sha factory, our force keywords is about “gua sha wholesale”. So we googled to find out the competitors that existed. Then on https://www.semrush.com/: fill in the competitor’s URL, and finally we can see the main keywords of this website. It can be found that some are what we need and some are not suitable for us. For example, the keyword “gua sha wholesale”, as a gua sha factory, this B-end long-tail keyword is undoubtedly very suitable for our business model. However, the gua sha retail price is not suitable for our business model. Therefore, we can create corresponding content and advertising promotion for Gua Sha wholesale, and at the same time exclude the content and keywords of Gua Sha retail, so as to make our audience more accurate and improve our conversion rate. 4. Create Financial Forecasts You will try to find out the profit potential of your business in this area. The numbers you want to include are: If you’re doing market analysis for a new business, your forecasts will

How to Market Assessment for Your Product in 2023 Read More »

“Hey, I think there’s a market for this product and I’m going to open a store to sell this product”. Half a year later, due to poor sales, the product was unsalable, and the store had no choice but to close. Brutal but true. Sometimes we find something that might have market potential, and we’re so excited that we’re ready to act. Starting a business can be exciting, but it can also be a lot of work — if you do it right. Market analysis is one of the first hurdles you need to overcome when you’re taking a business or product idea out of your head and onto paper. An accurate market assessment is your first step towards a successful business. What is A Market Assessment? A market assessment (or analysis) is an assessment or study of the market available in a particular niche or industry. The term “market” broadly refers to the state of who and how many people buy and sell a particular product or service. The idea is to study the dynamics of the field in which you intend to do business. It contains many aspects. You need to understand who your customers are, their spending habits and specific needs, the size of the market and other businesses you will be competing with. Whether you are starting a brand new business or an existing business is looking to enter a new market, market assessment is one of the essential steps. It will provide real data support for your business, not empty “I think”. These are the questions you need to focus on: Benefits of Conducting A Market Assessment: There’s a good reason that most, if not all, business loan providers need a business plan that includes market analysis — and it brings a lot of benefits.

How to Leverage Retail Fulfillment to Boost Your Profits – The Ultimate Guide to Retail Fulfillment 2022

Retail fulfillment is the process of receiving and processing orders from customers and then delivering products to them. It’s an essential part of any retail business and can have a significant impact on a company’s bottom line. There are many facets to retail fulfillment design. Including but not limited to obtaining products from suppliers, inventory management, online sales, and return and exchange services. Good retail fulfillment is important. It is directly related to your customer’s sense of store experience. It directly affects the stability and long-term development of your store. There are several factors to consider when setting up a retail fulfillment operation, including the type of products sold, order volume, geographic areas served, and delivery methods used. Choosing the right combination of these factors is critical to ensuring smooth and efficient operation. When done right, retail fulfillment can be a major competitive advantage. It can help retailers gain market share by providing a better customer experience than their competitors. It also helps them save money by reducing inventory costs and maximizing space. Imagine you buy a product from a store and receive it a month later (advertised as 15 days in store). The goods are very poor quality, and the negotiation with the store is fruitless, and the goods cannot be returned or exchanged. So will you come back to buy products from this store? Of course not, everyone will reject this store after they buy it once. The Importance of Retail Fulfillment As mentioned earlier, retail fulfillment ultimately determines the customer experience. A well-run retail fulfillment business can be a major competitive advantage, but a poorly-run business can be a major source of frustration. There are several factors to consider when setting up a retail fulfillment operation, including the type of products sold, order volume, geographic areas served, and delivery methods used. When done right, retail fulfillment can deliver significant benefits, including: Start Optimizing Your Retail Fulfillment Process After learning about the importance of retail fulfillment and the benefits that good retail fulfillment can bring, the next step is to think about how to optimize our retail fulfillment process. Factors to consider when optimizing retail fulfillment operations include the type of products sold, order volume, geographic areas served, and delivery methods used. Retail Fulfillment Process Retail fulfillment involves several different activities. By understanding and optimizing every step of the process, you can ensure that your business is running as efficiently as possible. Receive Inventory Receive inventory is the first step in retail fulfillment. Getting this step right is critical, and it’s directly related to whether your store is on the right track. You need to pay attention to the following points to avoid mistakes. Make sure you have enough space for your inventory. And sorted, you definitely don’t want to find out where your products are when you need them. If you are concerned about not having enough stock to store your product, please look for a supplier who can help you stock it, such as us – the leading wholesale factory for jade rollers and gua sha stones. When you receive the goods from the supplier, please check whether there is any problem with the goods at the first time. If there is damage, please record it. It is a good idea to keep pictures and videos to communicate claims with suppliers. Keep your inventory records. Including total inventory, daily inventory purchases and sales. Make sure your products are always in a stable supply state and avoid sales being affected by insufficient inventory. Recording can be done using a simple spreadsheet or inventory system. Warehousing By assigning spaces to store inventory, businesses can keep track of what they have on hand and ensure that items are properly protected. When choosing a warehouse, it’s important to consider the size of the space, the type of inventory to store, and climate control needs. If you feel that you want to save the cost of inventory, you can choose a drop shipping business. Pick and Pack Picking and packing involves choosing the right products and packing them properly for shipping. This step is important to ensure that the product reaches its destination safely and is available to customers. Shipping Order Shipping an order involves choosing the right products and packing them properly for shipping. This step is important to ensure that the product reaches its destination safely and is available to customers. At the same time, choosing the right mode of transportation can save you costs to a large extent and improve the safety of your goods in transit. Especially if you have an order for international delivery. Process Returns When a customer returns a product, a business should first check that the return is within its return policy. If not, businesses should still inspect items for damage, track returned items, and provide customers with receipts. It is important to note that some items may not be returned due to hygiene reasons, especially personal items. For example, items such as underwear or swimwear may not be returned if they are worn. In these cases, businesses should offer customers store credits or a discount on their next order rather than a refund. By following these simple tips, businesses can ensure their returns process is smooth and efficient. Retail Fulfillment Model In addition to the above process, there are several alternative retail fulfillment models that businesses can use to distribute their products. The most common are direct sales, consignment, and direct-to-consumer (DTC). In dropshipping, the retailer does not have any inventory on hand. Instead, they simply take orders from customers and purchase products from third-party suppliers, who ship the products directly to customers. Dropshipping is often used by businesses that sell products that are difficult or expensive to store, such as electronics or furniture. Of course, dropshipping is a great option for some new store owners who have low start-up capital and don’t want to take on too much risk. Want to do direct Gua Sha sales? Choose us, we are

Product Pricing: How to Pricing Your Products Wholesale and Retail?

Every selling company has struggled with pricing their products at one time or another, be it wholesale or retail sellers. If you’re struggling with this, you’re not alone. There are many mathematical formulas used to determine a product’s price, profit, markup, markdown, profitability, and sales history. Thankfully, there are only a few things you need to know when pricing your direct-to-consumer sales and wholesale products. Here, we’ll walk you through some of those formulas and some steps you can take to create a successful pricing strategy for your products, whether you’re selling wholesale, retail, or both. Gua Sha Wholesale Price And Retail Price Wholesale and retail are two fundamentally different processes: Wholesale involves moving goods from manufacturing to distribution. Retailing involves acquiring goods and selling them to customers. Manufacturers or distributors sell goods to retailers at wholesale prices. The retailer then sells the same product to the consumer at a higher price (retail price). What is Gua Sha Wholesale Pricing? Wholesale pricing is a relatively favorable price offered by the seller to the buyer when the buyer provides the seller with an order of a considerable number of products. Usually the price offered by the wholesaler to the retailer. The goal of wholesale pricing is to sell a product at a price above the cost of the product, thereby earning a cost. For example, for the manufacture of a gua sha board, the sum of all costs such as labor costs is $1, then the wholesale price of the gua sha stone can be set at $1.50, so that there is a profit of $0.5 per piece of gua sha board sold. It should be noted that the wholesale price is not fixed, it will fluctuate up and down with the order quantity. What is the Gua Sha Retail Price? Retail price refers to the final selling price set by the retailer for the final consumer. Retail pricing is entirely up to your customers. i.e. how much your customers are willing to pay for your product. Your pricing can be less than their maximum affordability, but not more. This is the tricky part of retail pricing because the answer to this question is often fluid. Suppose a retailer gets a product at a wholesale price of $5 and wants to make a profit of $5. At this point, the retailer will price the product at $10 in-store. This is called cornerstone pricing. But if the retailer wants to make more profit, that price will go up. As a Gua Sha wholesaler, we sometimes offer our customers a suggested retail price (SPR). Customers do not have to follow our suggested retail price to set prices, we just provide a reference value. How to Calculate Wholesale Product Pricing? 1. Research your market: How to set your wholesale prices? First of all, you need to know your position clearly. High quality brand? A low-priced brand or a personalized brand? Different positioning determines your image in the eyes of customers and also determines your wholesale price. Generally speaking, in terms of price, the wholesale price positioning of brands that focus on personalized customization is the highest, followed by high-quality brands, and finally the brands that focus on low-price strategies. If a lower price point is your competitive advantage, keep that in mind when doing your research. Know your break-even point and use the break-even point formula to calculate that number. If your target customers are more budget-conscious or looking for high-quality, high-end products, consider these factors when conducting market research. 2. Calculate the Manufacturing Cost of Your Products Cost of Goods Manufactured (COGM) is the total cost of manufacturing or purchasing a product, including materials, labor, and any additional costs required to put the item in inventory and prepare it for sale, such as shipping and handling. The COGM of a product can be determined by the following calculation: Total Material Cost + Total Labor Cost + Additional Costs and Overheads = Cost of Manufactured Goods 3. Calculate Your Wholesale Price After researching the market and calculating the manufacturing cost of the product, we can start to calculate our final wholesale price. Absorption pricing refers to the consideration of all relevant costs, including fixed costs and profit margins, when determining a price. It is called “absorption” because all costs are consumed in the final price of the product. For example a rose quartz gua sha board costs $1.50 to manufacture and you want a 40% profit margin. Then the wholesale price is $1.5 + ($1.5 × 40%) = $2.1. It is easy to use and does not require any training or complex formulas Your profit is almost guaranteed. If you can count all your expenses, you can potentially make a decent profit Pricing gaps arise frequently and do not take into account any competitor pricing This approach does not consider value perception. You may be charging too much to send potential buyers to other providers. Differentiated pricing is a wholesale pricing method used to optimize return on investment by calculating demand for a product. In this case, different buyers in different situations pay different prices for the same product. Also known as demand pricing or time-based pricing, this approach is based on the idea of ​​a buyer accepting to determine the price in any given market condition. For example, if you sell swimsuits, you can sell them at above average market value during peak season. You’ll notice that at retail, swimsuit prices jump up quickly at the start of summer, then fall back when demand drops. This also applies to areas where there is less competition and customers typically buy products at higher prices, such as beach resorts or airports. Using differentiated pricing, wholesalers can also offer products at lower prices. For example, if you have too much old stock on hand, you can do a last-minute flash sale, walk away, and make some profit. Regardless, you need to set a price that buyers feel is fair to the value of the product

9 Effective Ways to Market Products in 2022

We have no shortage of product marketing strategies. But an eclectic mix of strategies, no matter how creative, will not result in a compelling marketing strategy. The different strategies and channels that work best will fit your product and business model. Good marketing must fit your market and ultimately meet the needs of your target market. This is where a strategic marketing strategy comes into play. This guide will cover the most effective ways to market your product and ultimately drive more sales. It is not only effective for scraping products, all products can refer to the following methods. As e-commerce expert Drew Sanocki explains in his three-multiplier framework, marketing for an e-commerce business is actually three-dimensional: Sustainable growth comes from increasing the total number of purchases per customer (purchase frequency, or F) , increase the average order value ( AOV ), and increase the total number of customers (C). Marketing that doesn’t address all three of these issues won’t scale. Now, we’ll recommend some possible ways to do this. They are not only effective in our Gua Sha or Jade Roller industry, but for all products. Let’s get to the point. 9 Best Ways to Market Products Create Repeat Customers Your repeat customers are like your back garden. They will bring you great value as long as you are willing to put in enough effort. For example, a customer might get a lot of value from your flagship product, but unlock more value by buying your product again or buying more from your full product line. Loyal repeat customers bring more unexpected value. Once a customer makes a second purchase, you don’t need to spend another marketing dollar on it. If they think your product is good enough, they will even recommend it to their family or friends. Your repeat customers are one of the best ways to learn how to market your products successfully. Repeat purchases are not free, though. You still need to invest strategically in the right areas and really focus on your target audience. While you could argue that “everything” has the potential to affect retention, brands should start with three main levers: Now, we’re talking about marketing, so let’s take a closer look. To increase the frequency of customer ordering, you need to develop a dedicated marketing plan. There are several common and effective product marketing strategies you can use. 1. Create A Customer Loyalty Program Loyalty programs can be paid or free. Special promotions are offered to subscribed customers through this program. For example, customers pay a lifetime membership fee of $39.99 in your store, and you offer them some promotions, such as 5% discount on all products, free returns and exchanges, etc. It can also be free. The point system used by many stores now is one of them. Customers can earn corresponding points for purchasing products in the store. They can use the points to get certain offers in your store, such as direct redemption for items or discounts by spending points on products. But whether it’s paid or free, the purpose is to hopefully provide some kind of promotion to give customers a reason to come back to your store. 2. Create Customer Win-Back Emails Email is the lifeblood of high-intent shoppers who have already visited your store and made a purchase. This makes it an ideal channel to encourage repeat purchases. It’s also a very effective way to re-engage existing customers who may not have purchased in a while. One of the most valuable sequences you can create for your product marketing strategy is called a win-back campaign, which is a type of lifecycle marketing designed to attract customers based on where they are in the customer journey. In this case, the customer is post-purchase, so the correct message sent to them is one that encourages the return trip. Drew Sanocki calls this type of win-back campaign a one-two punch because the goal is to convert first-time buyers (F1s) into repeat customers (F2s). Here’s how it works: Target audience for email marketing campaigns: Set up your email campaigns to target first-time customers. Set the first email to be sent 30 days after purchase, provided they don’t make a second purchase during that time. Every subsequent email will be sent to your first customer list. You can set parameters to remove anyone who makes a purchase at any time throughout the email sequence. You will then unsubscribe from anyone who has not been active or opened your emails in the past 60 days. You don’t have to use email in this win back campaign if you don’t want to. You can use pop-ups, paid social ads, direct mail postcards—whatever you think will resonate best with your customers. 3. Email or SMS Registration Voucher Email marketing is another effective strategy for your product marketing strategy. This is a great way to re-engage current and potential clients. To get people to opt-in to your list, consider using a popup when they visit your site for the first time and share an offer if they subscribe. This could be a 10% discount on their first order or free shipping. Not only will you now be able to email them, but they will be more inclined to make a purchase using the promotion you just offered. You can do the same with texting. Postscript is a Shopify plugin that allows you to keep in touch with your customers via SMS messages. 4. Publish New Projects on Schedule If you plan to have new products in your online store frequently, consider scheduling product launches on the same day of the week or the same day of the month. If your customers know about a new release date, they’re more likely to visit your website to see what it is, or more likely to open a notification email. For the loyal fans of your store, they will be excited about new products released every week. Increase Order Value to Increase Revenue Increasing the average value of your order

9 Effective Ways to Market Products in 2022 Read More »

We have no shortage of product marketing strategies. But an eclectic mix of strategies, no matter how creative, will not result in a compelling marketing strategy. The different strategies and channels that work best will fit your product and business model. Good marketing must fit your market and ultimately meet the needs of your target market. This is where a strategic marketing strategy comes into play. This guide will cover the most effective ways to market your product and ultimately drive more sales. It is not only effective for scraping products, all products can refer to the following methods. As e-commerce expert Drew Sanocki explains in his three-multiplier framework, marketing for an e-commerce business is actually three-dimensional: Sustainable growth comes from increasing the total number of purchases per customer (purchase frequency, or F) , increase the average order value ( AOV ), and increase the total number of customers (C). Marketing that doesn’t address all three of these issues won’t scale. Now, we’ll recommend some possible ways to do this. They are not only effective in our Gua Sha or Jade Roller industry, but for all products. Let’s get to the point. 9 Best Ways to Market Products Create Repeat Customers Your repeat customers are like your back garden. They will bring you great value as long as you are willing to put in enough effort. For example, a customer might get a lot of value from your flagship product, but unlock more value by buying your product again or buying more from your full product line. Loyal repeat customers bring more unexpected value. Once a customer makes a second purchase, you don’t need to spend another marketing dollar on it. If they think your product is good enough, they will even recommend it to their family or friends. Your repeat customers are one of the best ways to learn how to market your products successfully. Repeat purchases are not free, though. You still need to invest strategically in the right areas and really focus on your target audience. While you could argue that “everything” has the potential to affect retention, brands should start with three main levers: Now, we’re talking about marketing, so let’s take a closer look. To increase the frequency of customer ordering, you need to develop a dedicated marketing plan. There are several common and effective product marketing strategies you can use. 1. Create A Customer Loyalty Program Loyalty programs can be paid or free. Special promotions are offered to subscribed customers through this program. For example, customers pay a lifetime membership fee of $39.99 in your store, and you offer them some promotions, such as 5% discount on all products, free returns and exchanges, etc. It can also be free. The point system used by many stores now is one of them. Customers can earn corresponding points for purchasing products in the store. They can use the points to get certain offers in your store, such as direct redemption for items or discounts by spending points on products. But whether it’s paid or free, the purpose is to hopefully provide some kind of promotion to give customers a reason to come back to your store. 2. Create Customer Win-Back Emails Email is the lifeblood of high-intent shoppers who have already visited your store and made a purchase. This makes it an ideal channel to encourage repeat purchases. It’s also a very effective way to re-engage existing customers who may not have purchased in a while. One of the most valuable sequences you can create for your product marketing strategy is called a win-back campaign, which is a type of lifecycle marketing designed to attract customers based on where they are in the customer journey. In this case, the customer is post-purchase, so the correct message sent to them is one that encourages the return trip. Drew Sanocki calls this type of win-back campaign a one-two punch because the goal is to convert first-time buyers (F1s) into repeat customers (F2s). Here’s how it works: Target audience for email marketing campaigns: Set up your email campaigns to target first-time customers. Set the first email to be sent 30 days after purchase, provided they don’t make a second purchase during that time. Every subsequent email will be sent to your first customer list.

6 Ways to Consider to Significantly Boost Store’s Revenue (Non-Technical)

Are you a new gua sha store owner and urgently need to increase your store’s revenue? Or do you have a long-running store, but suffer from a long period of no growth in store profits? Today, you will get some inspiration from here. We won’t give you a hint from the operational technology side of this post, we’ll start from the more practical product and supply side. Combined with our own situation and the actual experience of various customers, you can find tips and methods to improve your store’s revenue. Here you will learn how to reduce the cost of purchase, improve the profit of a single product and maintain the stability of inventory. 1. Look for Gua Sha Manufacturers, Not Traders. Have you ever thought about whether your current supplier is a gua sha manufacturer or a supplier? If you’re happy with your current supplier prices, then you don’t need to pay too much attention to this topic. But if you want to reduce the cost of restocking, this is the most direct way. Choose a manufacturer instead of a trader and you’ll get at least 30-40% off. Take a look at the formula below: Manufacturer’s Price = Product Cost × (1 + Manufacturer’s Profit Percentage) Trader’s Price = Manufacturer’s Quote × (1 + Trader’s Profit Percentage) It’s easy to see from the formula that by choosing to source from the manufacturer, you’ll save the trader’s extra markup. 30%-40% off is no surprise. Besides the cost of the product, you can also get more benefits, more stable product quality, a more accurate production cycle, etc. We’ve covered how to find suppliers in an earlier article, and I’ll give a brief overview here. If you want to know more details, you can check our other article “How to Find Best Supplier?“. 1. Google Search This is our most recommended course of action. The Google search function is very powerful, you can find almost everything on it, whether it is cosmetic scraping roller products, or various electronic parts, etc., you can find the manufacturer you need. The trick is to add “factory” or “manufacturer” to the end of the keyword for the product you want, such as “gua sha wholesale” Try to choose the top-ranking website, and pay attention to identify the credibility of the website. 2. Alibaba When it comes to sourcing products from China, Alibaba is the most frequently mentioned platform. As China’s largest foreign trade wholesale platform, it has countless supplier information. Sounds great right? But it should be noted that if you want to find manufacturers from Alibaba, then you need to pay more time and effort than Google search. Because the store rankings on Alibaba are not for reference. If the supplier is willing to pay Alibaba a decent amount of money for the ranking, he can get a fairly high ranking, otherwise, your ranking will not be high. (It’s not just limited to ad rankings, but organic rankings as well.) 3. Made in China and Global Sources These two are international wholesale platforms similar to Alibaba. However, these two platforms are higher than Alibaba in terms of the average quality of suppliers due to higher registration thresholds and requirements than Alibaba. And, if you want to source electronics, these two platforms are better options. 4. Field trips If you have this condition, this is our most recommended course of action. You can have a direct dialogue with the manufacturer, which can give you a considerable level of confidence in your trade. But this approach requires many conditions. You need to spend a considerable amount of money and time, you need to prepare a corresponding entourage to ensure good communication between you and the manufacturer, and even you must always pay attention to the epidemic prevention requirements in different regions of China. Therefore, although this approach is the most direct and effective, it requires complex preliminary preparations and investment of funds and time. This is not the preferred way to be a novice seller or a small to the medium seller. So to sum up, our most recommended practice is still Google search, and platforms such as Alibaba and Made in China are also good choices, but it takes more effort and time to identify. 2. Choose the Shipping Method that Suits You Best What shipping methods are used for your imported goods? by sea? Air or ground? Sometimes, the right way to change transportation can bring unexpected benefits. Let’s briefly explain the advantages and disadvantages of each mode of transportation. Air freight: The advantage is that the transportation time is short, usually about a week. It is suitable for commodities with small quantities and urgent demand. The disadvantage is that it is relatively expensive and not suitable for transporting bulk commodities. Shipping: The advantage is that the price is relatively cheap, and it can undertake the transportation of bulk commodities. Dozens of tons and hundreds of tons can be transported. The disadvantage is that the shipping time is long, often more than a month or even longer. So do you know which shipping method is currently suitable for you? Or do you think your current shipping method must be the right one? You can think about these questions. It’s hard to say that there is one shipping method that works for everyone, and everyone’s needs will be different. About 80% of the customers we met initially That want to choose air freight. But in the end, only half of the customers still insist on choosing air freight. The reason is that they urgently need this shipment, either to catch up with promotions such as holidays or because he needs to deliver the product to his customers within the stipulated time. So they must choose air freight to meet their needs. From the results, it seems that a considerable number of people do not clearly know their needs for transportation methods, so they blindly choose the fast air transportation method. But if you want to save money,

How to choose product packaging? Check out the Ultimate Guide to Product Packaging!

There are many factors that influence how customers perceive your brand, and the product packaging you choose and design is definitely one of them. Product packaging generally boils down to how the product is presented, which is closely related to customer perception. It tells a story and sets the stage for how you want to represent your entire organization. Choosing a clean and modern look for your product packaging will make a different impression, rather than using a boring and clunky street design.  Product packaging explains your brand in fractions of a second, and customers sometimes judge the value or quality of a product at a glance. The right packaging can also differentiate your product from the competition and help you sell more, which is another great asset.  Packaging seems to be a small detail that too many merchants don’t notice until the last minute. However, packaging is an important part of your marketing and service strategy and should not be taken lightly. In this article, we’ll walk you through the process of choosing the product packaging that best represents your product and maximizes sales. Product Packaging: What You Need to Know Before Designing Product packaging design has a lot going on: color, visuals, size, shape, boxes, bags, packaging, materials, and more. Before you start making any decisions, it’s crucial to do some research first. There are four key things you need to know that will significantly impact your packaging design. These include: Types of Product Packaging to Consider There are three main types of product packaging that you may need, depending on the types of products you sell and how they bring them to consumers. Let’s take a look at each one. You need to package the product itself. This will instantly protect any product you sell. Think of the shampoo bottle, the wrapper for a candy bar, or the box of jewelry you’re selling. Product packaging also includes labels and/or hang tags (if applicable) on these products. For example, our products are made of natural crystal or jade. The body of the product is relatively fragile, so safe packaging is crucial. Straightforward product packaging will likely take center stage, so that’s where you should start. If customers see it on the shelf, what makes them want to get it? Both functionality and aesthetics are important here. When a person is shopping, the first impression is often one of the most important factors in his final decision, followed by factors such as price, quality, and function. If you ship your product to a customer, how do you package it? Envelopes, boxes or something else? Alternatively, you can hand out shelving boxes to sell these candy bars to boutiques or small local businesses; what do those boxes look like? The outer product packaging is the box or package in which your product will be delivered, this is especially important for shipping purposes, it will ensure that your product ends up in the customer’s hands intact. They usually include branded mailboxes, envelopes and stickers. This gives you the opportunity to impress customers the moment they see the package in the mail. If you need product packaging, you may also need product inner packaging. This includes everything inside the outer box or envelope that is not the product itself. It may include shredded paper or blister, used to hold everything in place, and to avoid or reduce collisions during transport. The main focus here is practicality. How can you ship the lotion in that glass bottle and make sure it doesn’t break? For example, wrapping the item in a cloth bag or paper and sticking it in shredded paper can help protect it. All of these can be branded to give your packaging a more uniform look so your brand looks mature and professional. It also gives you control over the complete customer experience when it comes to how they receive your product. How to pack a product: 6 things you need to put on a box. When designing product packaging, there are six things to keep in mind every time. These include: How to Design Ecommerce Packaging: 6 Key Steps The brand packaging process involves six key steps. Let’s take a look at each one.  1. Do your research Do your research in advance. We covered this in an earlier post. You need to know who your audience is, what’s going on in the market right now, and what you want your packaging to say about the product you’re selling. Competitor and market research will be important here, and also useful if you haven’t developed buyer personas for each individual product.  Branding and packaging go hand in hand. Please keep this in mind.  2. Select your product container type It is important to decide what type of product container you may need before you make any further decisions. Different options for product packaging include: Remember to choose something that meets all of the following criteria: 3. Decide what you need Once you’ve chosen the exact type of product container you want to use, it’s time to look at everything else you might need.  Consider how your products will get from your store to your customers from a practical and aesthetic standpoint. You will need a shipping container, such as a mailing envelope or box. But what else do you need to make sure everything looks great and the product is protected so that customers have the best experience? In addition to that brand of shipping box, you may also want to buy a brand of packing tape. Maybe you have a standard product kit that can easily benefit from a custom mailing insert, or maybe you realize you need to pack peanuts or shredded paper to ensure your products reach customers safely.

How to choose product packaging? Check out the Ultimate Guide to Product Packaging! Read More »

There are many factors that influence how customers perceive your brand, and the product packaging you choose and design is definitely one of them. Product packaging generally boils down to how the product is presented, which is closely related to customer perception. It tells a story and sets the stage for how you want to represent your entire organization. Choosing a clean and modern look for your product packaging will make a different impression, rather than using a boring and clunky street design.  Product packaging explains your brand in fractions of a second, and customers sometimes judge the value or quality of a product at a glance. The right packaging can also differentiate your product from the competition and help you sell more, which is another great asset.  Packaging seems to be a small detail that too many merchants don’t notice until the last minute. However, packaging is an important part of your marketing and service strategy and should not be taken lightly. In this article, we’ll walk you through the process of choosing the product packaging that best represents your product and maximizes sales. Product Packaging: What You Need to Know Before Designing Product packaging design has a lot going on: color, visuals, size, shape, boxes, bags, packaging, materials, and more. Before you start making any decisions, it’s crucial to do some research first. There are four key things you need to know that will significantly impact your packaging design. These include: Types of Product Packaging to Consider There are three main types of product packaging that you may need, depending on the types of products you sell and how they bring them to consumers. Let’s take a look at each one. You need to package the product itself. This will instantly protect any product you sell. Think of the shampoo bottle, the wrapper for a candy bar, or the box of jewelry you’re selling. Product packaging also includes labels and/or hang tags (if applicable) on these products. For example, our products are made of natural crystal or jade. The body of the product is relatively fragile, so safe packaging is crucial. Straightforward product packaging will likely take center stage, so that’s where you should start. If customers see it on the shelf, what makes them want to get it? Both functionality and aesthetics are important here. When a person is shopping, the first impression is often one of the most important factors in his final decision, followed by factors such as price, quality, and function. If you ship your product to a customer, how do you package it? Envelopes, boxes or something else? Alternatively, you can hand out shelving boxes to sell these candy bars to boutiques or small local businesses; what do those boxes look like? The outer product packaging is the box or package in which your product will be delivered, this is especially important for shipping purposes, it will ensure that your product ends up in the customer’s hands intact. They usually include branded mailboxes, envelopes and stickers. This gives you the opportunity to impress customers the moment they see the package in the mail. If you need product packaging, you may also need product inner packaging. This includes everything inside the outer box or envelope that is not the product itself. It may include shredded paper or blister, used to hold everything in place, and to avoid or reduce collisions during transport. The main focus here is practicality. How can you ship the lotion in that glass bottle and make sure it doesn’t break? For example, wrapping the item in a cloth bag or paper and sticking it in shredded paper can help protect it. All of these can be branded to give your packaging a more uniform look so your brand looks mature and professional. It also gives you control over the complete customer experience when it comes to how they receive your product. How to pack a product: 6 things you need to put on a box. When designing product packaging, there are six things to keep in mind every time. These include: How to Design Ecommerce Packaging: 6 Key Steps The brand packaging process involves six key steps. Let’s take a look at each one.  1. Do your research Do your research in advance. We covered this in an earlier post. You need to know who your audience is, what’s going on in the market right now, and what you want your packaging to say about the product you’re selling. Competitor and market research will be important here, and also useful if you haven’t developed buyer personas for each individual product.  Branding and packaging go hand in hand. Please keep this in mind.  2. Select your product container type It is important to decide what type of product container you may need before you make any further decisions. Different options for product packaging include: Remember to choose something that meets all of the following criteria: 3. Decide what you need Once you’ve chosen the exact type of product container you want to use, it’s time to look at everything else you might need.  Consider how your products will get from your store to your customers from a practical and aesthetic standpoint. You will need a shipping container, such as a mailing envelope or box. But what else do you need to make sure everything looks great and the product is protected so that customers have the best experience? In addition to that brand of shipping box, you may also want to buy a brand of packing tape. Maybe you have a standard product kit that can easily benefit from a custom mailing insert, or maybe you realize you need to pack peanuts or shredded paper to ensure your products reach customers safely. Consider all of this and list everything you need. Moving forward is important. 4.

Private label customization generally includes three aspects. Product logo customization, gift box customization and product customization. Because of the difficulty of production, these three customization methods also have different requirements for orders. We will next make recommendations based on customer type. We divide different customers into several types. 1.Small Sellers Who Have Their Own Store on Amazon or have An Independent Online Station. According to our experience, this type of seller has limited funds and needs to prepare a wide enough variety of products to improve the attractiveness of their store. Therefore, the number of orders for a single type of product is often small, probably more than 50 and less than 500, and there are also big constraints in terms of budget. If you are this type of seller, choosing product logo customization is a better choice. The order MOQ requirements are low, the unit cost is the lowest, and the customization cycle is the shortest. is the least risky option. 2.Large Online Sales Websites, or Supermarket Chains.

Orders are in moderate demand and can reflect your brand from the outside to the inside, increasing product differentiation. Of course, different industries will also lead to different customization requirements. Some industries have low requirements, so it is not impossible for a small and medium-sized seller to carry out a full set of customization. However, some industries are extremely demanding in terms of customization. In this case, large sellers will think twice when choosing a full set of customization. Therefore, it is best for you to understand the basic requirements of customized services in your industry before you consider them. How to Find the Right Private Label Supplier? Before you enter your new private label business, there are a few things to consider. The first and most important thing is to be clear about what you are selling. The great thing about private label is that you can find just about anything you could possibly want, including beauty products, homewares, and groceries. As you review your options, consider what you’re trying to sell — but be sure to balance your personal preferences with some market research. Maybe you’ll be very disappointed to find out that people don’t like your product as much as you do! Here’s how you can do some market research to “validate” your idea and try to make sure people are actually interested: And after knowing and confirming the product you need, here are a few ways to find a private label supplier that can give you some tips: 1.Google Search. You can find almost everything you need on Google. From big machinery to small pencils and more, there’s nothing you won’t find. So googling is a good option. And there’s an added bonus to googling. Compared to well-known wholesale platforms such as Alibaba, Google search organic rankings are more trustworthy, but just in case, double check that their website is trustworthy. Remember to include private labeling when searching to ensure more accurate information. 2.Alibaba Alibaba is one of the largest e-commerce companies in the world. Alibaba, with about $72 billion in revenue in 2020, thrives by offering one of the most comprehensive supplier directories, connecting merchants with suppliers everywhere. Through Alibaba’s catalog, you can access a variety of suppliers selling items in categories such as agricultural products, food and beverages, textiles, jewelry, and more. While Alibaba doesn’t offer a Shopify app, there are so many private label manufacturers involved that it’s worth a look. You can print custom logos and designs on almost any product, and you can buy items in bulk to reduce inventory costs. But like we mentioned earlier, Alibaba’s search rankings don’t always seem convincing.

How to Find Reliable Chinese Wholesale Suppliers of Gua Sha Stone?

How to Find Reliable Chinese Wholesale Suppliers of Gua Sha Stone? Over the years, we have helped many people who wish to import goods from China find the right product for them. These products include our own products as well as products from other industries. How do you choose the best product for you from a wide variety of different suppliers? This is really a headache. So, today, it is necessary for me to share some personal experiences of finding the right supplier. This information may be useful and reliable to you. Read it patiently, I believe you will gain a lot. Let’s jump right into the subject. Through What Channels to Find Chinese Wholesale Suppliers? Search for Suppliers Through Chinese Wholesale websites. There are many Chinese wholesale websites where you can find suppliers. We mainly list a few common Chinese wholesale websites for your reference: In fact, the process of finding suppliers through online wholesale platforms is similar. You need to find the most suitable one from countless suppliers. But they are also different. Next, we will analyze them one by one: Alibaba Anyone who wants to import products from China has more or less heard of Alibaba. This is indeed a great place to find Chinese suppliers, but there are a few places that need your attention. 1. Not being a verified supplier member is necessarily good. In fact, we are also one of Alibaba’s verified suppliers. So we know Alibaba’s rules. In the past, Alibaba had a “Gold Vendor” membership. But you will find that almost all suppliers are “Gold Suppliers”. But now that title has been replaced by “Verified Supplier”. To be precise, these signs indicate “paid membership” certification. It has a certain reference value, but it cannot be used as the main criterion for judging whether it is a good supplier. 2. First place in search results is not always good. This is a common problem with almost all online wholesale platforms. Alibaba’s search results are different from those of Google, and its excellent rankings often come from expensive advertising costs. When you search for a product, the top three or five places it shows up on your page are ranked through paid advertising. Typically, the more money a supplier spends on Alibaba, the better his ranking, whether paid or organic. So, if you look for a supplier through the top few search results on Alibaba, you can get a well-funded supplier, but not necessarily the information on the source factory. Made in China or Global Sources If you’re sick of Alibaba’s dizzying list of suppliers, Made in China and Global Sources are a better choice. Fewer suppliers but also more reliable. Because both sites have stricter audit standards and higher membership fees than Alibaba. So you have a higher chance of finding a reliable supplier on these two sites and a higher chance of finding a direct factory. In fact, you can find the same suppliers on Alibaba, Made in China, and Global Sources. Therefore, the MOQ or product category you find on these platforms may not be different.However, the latter two sites focus on different Alibaba products. If you are doing electromechanical products, I suggest you go to Global Sources & Made in China. For example, if you want to develop a Bluetooth headset based on your design, it would be more efficient to look for suppliers on these two sites. In addition, suppliers are also more professional. AliExpress This is also an Ali-based website. Compared with Alibaba, it has a low MOQ requirement. If you are new to the business and just want to place an order for a few hundred dollars, you can visit AliExpress. When you reorder from the same supplier, the quality of the product may differ from your first order. Since suppliers at both sites usually source the same product from different factories, they cannot guarantee consistent quality. But don’t let one bad experience make you doubt the safety of buying from AliExpress. In fact, most AliExpress sellers are legitimate. You should try to stay in close contact with them to avoid such problems. You can find suppliers who sell private label products. They will pay more attention to product quality. But it’s hard for you to differentiate yourself from other competitors because other people buy these brands too. In short, if you’re running a long-term business, or an Amazon seller, I wouldn’t recommend buying from either of these sites. If you are new, please make sure you know how to use Aliexpress safely before buying. Of course, AliExpress is also a website that is seriously affected by advertising, which is a common problem with websites owned by Alibaba. 1688 1688 is a wholesale market only for Chinese buyers, so there is only Chinese version. Also, some people think that 1688 suppliers are all factories, unfortunately that is not true. There are factories and distributors here. Actually, you can find the same suppliers on 1688 and Alibaba. That is to say, there are trading companies and factories on the 1688 website, just like Alibaba. If you want to buy from 1688, you will have a lot of trouble. In short, it is not a suitable platform for non-Chinese. Find Chinese Suppliers Through Search Engines Such As Google. When we introduced the first way, we introduced that Alibaba is heavily influenced by advertising, which is different from Google. Google ads will affect their site’s paid rankings, but will not affect their site’s organic rankings. So, if you want to source a certain item from China, the top three organic Google results tend to be higher-quality suppliers. Remember to add e.g. wholesale to your search so that you don’t search for the final seller of retail instead of the supplier. Of course, this does not ensure that you can directly find factories, especially those that do not open foreign trade sales services. How do you make sure you find the source factory? This requires careful consideration when you enter
