What about automotive parts?

Gringo entrepreneur friends of mine in Medellin and Peru are constantly bringing up two points to me:

1. Automotive parts are in short supply and high demand in Colombia/peru

2. There is a free trade agreement between Colombia/Peru/Chile and the United States.

I smell ecommerce opportunities.

I'm working on getting in with an auto manufacturer but he is already global and may not need me. I know about the trade agreements we have with he rest of the world and I'm working on exploiting them now. Auto Parts would be sweet but you can get so many parts from mexico for much cheaper than USA parts although people trust USA parts more.

YMG, What are your thoughts on Alibaba.com for ecommerce vs its competitors? I hear mixed reviews about it.

Mixed reviews is a good way to approach and think about Alibaba in general. I've used it on a few occasions and still today.

I would write more but this is a better and more credible response:

Mexico may be cheaper but if people trust the US brand more than that could be a competitive advantage. Go for the higher end. My two cents. It's not always about undercutting.

This is my guiding philosophy at the moment. As a little guy its real hard to compete on price. Much better to sell high end and with a personal service to customer that they won't get from a big company.

I can source aftermarket auto parts in China. I won't be going back to China until October though, but if someone has distribution channels, I may be interested.

These presentations will end up becoming screencast videos and core module content for a range of digital products in the careers/business space.

Hey guys, I've gotten some positive responses and good feedback from the members here. Many people want to get in the oil business but there are lots of politics behind the scenes and you have to know the right people to get in with refiners, packagers, and blenders. I have those connections and that's why I charge for other people to work with them but through me. I am a middleman and business is about being a good middleman. I am acquiring more suppliers right now and I will have some access to auto parts as well for limited markets like south america. I may have diesel fuel for export pretty soon as well.

If anyone is interested in working with my company obviously I will require some paperwork to be filled out by you. I will also have to do my due diligence and make sure you're not trans-shipping fuel from dubai to Iran for example as that could get me in serious hot water.

Look forward to collaborating with you guys.

Cheers

I can see how those could pay for themselves and then some. Can you give some tips on how to use the vids most effectively? I mean, how to get them seen by people. The obvious way is to put them on the business website, to increase point of sale, but do your clients have tricks to get them seen in other venues?

Your imagination will set a border for this. A video these days can be applied basically everywhere. Along with having it shine on the first page of your website, make sure it gets uploaded to major videosites like YouTube and Vimeo. Furthermore, there's a great opportunity in putting your video to a targeted niche via Google AdWords. That's a gem. You can also spin it with having it on a landing page, directed from PPC marketing.

[Laner]

Here is a video that we did, with rates in a similar ballpark as Staros.

This video was about $2000.

Do you provide the video text, or must that be written by the buyer? If you write it, is that based just on basic product info?

China just signed an FTA with Switzerland.



http://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/busi...35986.html

Switzerland mainly sells watches, pharmaceuticals and chemicals, as well as machinery to China, which ships mostly textiles and machinery back to Switzerland.


BEIJING: China and Switzerland on Saturday signed a free trade agreement (FTA) -- Beijing's first in continental Europe -- in a deal that comes against a backdrop of trade tensions between the Asian giant and the European Union (EU).

Chinese Commerce Minister Gao Hucheng and Swiss Economy Minister Johann Schneider-Ammann inked the accord in a ceremony at the Commerce Ministry in Beijing before officials and reporters.

Afterwards, they clinked glasses of champagne in celebration of the agreement, which aims to increase the $26.3 billion in bilateral trade they recorded in 2012.

China in April signed its first FTA with a European country -- non-EU member Iceland -- but Saturday's deal marks the first with an economy in mainland Europe.

Switzerland ranked as the world's 19th-largest economy in 2012, according to the World Bank. China is the world's second-biggest.

"This free trade agreement has an important significance for the relationship between the two countries," Schneider-Ammann told AFP after Saturday's signing ceremony.

He noted that China is the world's single biggest developing market with potential for a growing middle-class.

Fiercely independent Switzerland is not a member of the EU and even waited decades to join the United Nations.

Nonetheless, it is an economic heavyweight known for high-value luxury goods such as its world famous watches and as a financial centre.

Switzerland mainly sells watches, pharmaceuticals and chemicals, as well as machinery to China, which ships mostly textiles and machinery back to Switzerland.

Unlike most western countries, Switzerland enjoys a huge trade surplus with China to the tune of $22.8 billion last year.

Switzerland and China had signed a preliminary FTA agreement in May during a visit to the landlocked European nation by Chinese Premier Li Keqiang.

Schneider-Ammann said the deal is also important for hedging risks.

"We get a chance to spread out the risk of the Swiss economy a little bit over the borders of our European neighbourhood," he said. "It has a great importance."

The EU economy has experienced serious turmoil over the past several years in the wake of the global financial crisis and due to sovereign debt instability that engulfed Greece and other member states including Spain, Italy and Portugal.

The 28-member bloc and China have jousted over mutual claims of unfair trade practices in sectors including Chinese solar panels and European wine, leading to worries that the dispute could spiral out of control.

A visit to Beijing last month by the EU's trade chief, who held talks with Gao, helped damp down tensions and increased optimism the two sides can come to terms on their differences.

Schneider-Ammann said doing so was vital for smaller countries like his own.

"It's absolutely important that the bigger economies find ways to keep open their markets because (the) more open the global market... the better the chances to do business," he said.

The deal still needs approval by the Swiss parliament before it can take effect.

3. Projects you have going on or projects you'd like to find help for

I have been working/been a partner on a few projects. One a nightlife company that has ran music festivals and events that is seeking capital for expansion to bring a larger artist out beyond the normal organized events. With my current network from the last nightlife company I worked on, I plan to bring out key headliners in the coming months.

I have just begun actively seeking investment for a project, I am limited in the description I care to post on a public forum, but in essence it is for a web business that has been running that uses a system developed for generating and monetizing web traffic that is unique and has a high barrier to entry. The investor or investors will receive a passive income paid out either monthly or bi-weekly dependent on the terms agreed upon. It will be secured with provisions we decide after negotiation as I am still debating allowing non-US investors, it is dependent on your country location. Your ROI will range from $xxx-$x,xxx a month dependent on a variety of factors that will be discussed. I have references, a traffic record, as well as examples of previous ventures.

If anyone in the States wants to take advantage of the U.S.-Colombia Free Trade Agreement (FTA) or "Tratado de Libre Comercio" (TLC), as it is known in Spanish, and needs a trustworthy partner here, I am an American guy located in Bogotá. My background is in linguistics, education, and translation, but I'm looking to branch out into the import/export business. I've done the rounds at the chamber of commerce and have been counseled on some aspects of how to set it up, but I'm still looking for the right product/partner company from the States.

1. What value you have to offer

Setting Up Membership Websites - This is my main gig at the moment, and I've helped a lot of very well known online marketers set up and manage membership sites.

This includes consulting on the marketing approach, installing the software, integrating payment processor, building out the members area, setting up video with Amazon S3/Cloudfront, integrating autoresponder, content delivery, etc.

For more details, testimonials, and software that I work with, check out my business thread on the Warrior Forum:

Membership Site Setup


Creating Information Products From Scratch - I've created several digital information products from scratch, starting with the very first thing I did online after leaving my previous career as an opera sing, which was a video course and eBook on how to sing opera (http://www.singoperanow.com). Sells well to this day.

I also built a six pack abs product for a client in the US over the course of 6 months. Unfortunately, they pulled the plug before the marketing snowballed and they own the rights to the product. May be presumptuous of me, but I think this was on track to compete with the big boys (six pack shortcuts, truth about abs, etc.)

I also created a video course on performing keyword research which sold quite well on the Warrior Forum and through JVs with various bloggers/online marketers, but tapered off after the google updates (http://www.smartkeywordresearch.net)

My main focus right now is on creating my own information products in the seduction niche. I'm passionate about it, know what I'm talking about, and looking for a few good men to potentially partner and build a profitable, customer-focused boutique information product company in this niche.

For more on my seduction related activities, please check out www.realnaturalseduction.com


2. What you are looking for or could benefit from

I'm looking for long term business partners and potentially investors who love the idea of creating an information business in the seduction/men's improvement space.

More than anything right now, I need:

1. A great copywriter who lives and breathes copy and has a track record for writing copy that converts. Or at least is willing to learn.

2. A traffic 'getter' for lack of a better term. A guy who can go out and find opportunities for guest posts, interviews, media ops, etc.

*Requirement: you have to have game! And you have to understand the seduction niche intimately from having actually been in it and gone through the trials and tribulations to get good at this stuff!


3. Projects you have going on or projects you'd like to find help for

I'm about 70% done with creating my first information product in the seduction niche. It's a 'niche' product that solves a specific issue (think: "how to pick up fat asian girls" or what have you)

Once it's created (about a month from now I should be wrapping up), I'll need some great sales copy and lots of traffic. Will be testing this and optimizing for conversion.

Hopefully, this first product will allow me to fund the creation of further niche products and to create an information product catalog.

The distinguishing feature I want for my company is accountability for the material I present. In other words, every product will have exercises and other built in devices to ensure students aren't just mentally masturbating, but are applying the material and being rewarded for action and punished for sloth. I believe this is a unique value proposition as most PUA literature is self-indulgent brain dump with little concern for information usability.

I am a 22 year old college student at a rather large university studying the pre-health field. I am located in Connecticut so I'm right between New York City and Boston. I speak Russian fluently and have a good understanding of Spanish. I do not have much technical experience but am a quick learner.

[theArbiter]

I'm planning on chilling until November/December hits before I start hustling with import/export and other side projects, but just thought I might throw this out there in case I can immediately add some value.

I'm currently living in the Guangdong region of China in basically the "lighting capital" of China (over 50% of lights in the Chinese market is sourced from here). Street after street, all you see is a barrage of storefronts (and multi-story plazas of the same thing) showcasing their lighting products, everything from LED lights, chandeliers, street lamps, household lighting, etc. I also have relatives here who own several factories rented out to these light suppliers to assist me on Chinese business culture, quality control, product selection, etc. I speak the local language as well, so I'm your go-to-guy for sourcing light products, quality control, joint ventures, or anything else you can think of.

I also live near two towns that specialize in Locks/Hardware/Electronic Acoustics and Electric Household Appliances, so I can help you check those out as well.
