I love the way you edited this video by pausing the interview for a further explanation.

[@SourcingWithKian]

Thanks bro much appreciated! There were too many gems in there that could have got lost so had to break it down haha 🙏

[@lindab7113]

Kian, super helpful as always. I loved visiting China last year. It was great seeing the factories, meeting the supplier face to face and having dinner and drinks with them. It is also a plus when you can pull out your Mandarin speaking skills, even if it’s super basic and terrible. I wish we could have visited this year but I plan on going every year.

[@SourcingWithKian]

For sure, was so much fun being there with you too! Going to enjoy the next trip so much more haha

[@fatihaamin3811]

This is wonderful content. I love the respect and humilty that you portrayed during the interview. It says alot about you. Thank you very much for this interesting content

[@SourcingWithKian]

Thank you so much Fatiha I really appreciate that! Going back to China next month so plenty more content like this coming up :)

[@BenLeavitt]

Kian has all the secrets 🤫🤫

[@SourcingWithKian]

Haha thanks bro, learned the KZbin secrets from you though!

[@mariammohamud3890]

Wooooowww we should all see our manufacturers as soon as we can. Imagine the product specific knowledge they could give us. 👍👍👍

[@SourcingWithKian]

Haha yesss! Can't wait to get back out there 👀📦🇨🇳🏭

[@LigneDesign]

Kian, such an interesting interview confirming several hypotheses of mine! You must make numerous such videos! What else do suppliers dream of telling us? In addition, it would be just as interesting to do the same but with not-so-good suppliers too! In short, many different point of views, etc!

[@SourcingWithKian]

Thanks for your feedback! I'd love to make more videos like this, as soon as we can go back to China I'm going to make much more content like this :)

[@sabrinamichaels8159]

You're my favourite coach! God bless you for the wealth of information you share!

[@SourcingWithKian]

Thanks Sabrina much appreciated! Glad you are enjoying the channel, much more to come 🙏

[@keirdoubas]

Some huge nuggets in there from the Factory boss and things from his side of the equation. He has great english today. Once again thanks for making this video Kian. It's the only one of its kind i've found on KZbin so far.. I'm enjoying bingewatching all your episodes. Nearly finished :)

[@darrenbarrett8508]

Great Video Kian it was really good to see Eddie giving so many tips

[@SourcingWithKian]

Thanks buddy much appreciated! As soon as we can get back out to China I'll be making more content like this 👊

[@1414141x]

Lovely video. Really cool to be able to see the trading between buyers and sellers from the sellers perspective. Eddie seems a pleasant chap.

[@SourcingWithKian]

Cheers mate glad you enjoyed the video, yeah Eddie is a legend! 🙏

[@rsalinas15]

Awesome video Kian, full of gold in it. Thanks 🙏

[@SourcingWithKian]

[@anthonyfletchersgdbrbyu5621]

I love you content and will continue to follow you. I want to launch my first product but I am finding difficult to deal with manufacturer in China so I am waisting much time. The last time I was told that the lead time is 60-70days so I had to drop them so I am at square one after 6 weeks of negotiations.

[@danielsouza1843]

I like the way how do You adapted Your English / accent to talk with Chinese people. My English is not so good, my accent is terrible, but I`m used to talk with people from ALL around the world. I also like the natural way that You created " Rapport" to better interact etc...Most part of communication is not only words. In another video, I notice how attention You gave when you received a business card, reading the name and taking some time to look to the business card. (some people don`t even look into the other eyes when shaking hands, or take the card and put directly on their pockets..)...

[@SourcingWithKian]

Thanks bro well noticed and much appreciated 🙏

[@richochet]

Another gem.

Incredible content, man!!

Thanks Shenali much appreciated!

[@BgFutre]

Another great show. Great gems. Okay I'm sold on going to China for a face-to-face meeting. When's the next trip?

[@godfreylyimo4177]

How can I get the contacts of different manufacturers in China? Plss assists

[@SourcingWithKian]

Hey Godfrey thanks for your question, if you watch this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/mn_FnXuhmtNpqMU from start to finish, it will help you find the best manufacturers online 🙏

[@aaronsutherland23]

Really informative insights, thanks Kian 👍

Nice video Kian. Thank you.

[@SourcingWithKian]

Thanks Abbas much appreciated! Hope you're well

[@gemini0662]

Hi Kian, thank you for giving this service to business community. I would like to know more about Eddie's products, can I find his company in Alibaba? or maybe a website where I can see his products?

[@SourcingWithKian]

Hey Joseph, glad you enjoyed the content, he's not actually on Alibaba, but is doing the outdoor bag business mainly. I actually interview him again for my next KZbin video which will be posting tomorrow - hope you enjoy it 🙏

[@jewellui]

Great video, would love to see more interviews with suppliers.

[@SourcingWithKian]

Absolutely! I have a few interviews on this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eqXTppeffpqtm9k but I'll get more when we can go back to China 😆

[@bluegiant13]

Good stuff man

[@SourcingWithKian]

Thanks buddy much appreciated! 🙏

[@G2xo]

Great video.Isn’t it hard to enter China for Covid? How about the Vietnam or Thailand suppliers if possible?

[@hamadhamad3622]

Nice video, thanks

Thank you too for watching! 🙏

@@SourcingWithKian You as well! Come visit Florida

[@Breath-Relax-Release]

Your videos are very informative. How can I find out about quality backpack companies in China?

[@sanjuwa2677]

Where the big customers go for sourcing products ?

[@mgross6125]

Thanks for the video - some amazing tips! How can a non-chinese resident get Wechat?

[@osho711]

Kian, Thank you for the video. How to find out more about the product quality and material being used? From my experience, they don't offer this information easily. How do you find non-Alibaba suppliers once you are ready to go high in quantity?

[@SourcingWithKian]

Hey Ajay glad the video was helpful! For the product quality and material being used all information should be on the specification sheet that the supplier submits to you or they make to the standard that you submit to them, and you can get this verified by a 3rd party testing house like Intertek or SGS. Once you visit China you can also ask to visit the raw material factory where you can learn more about the materials, prices and process etc. Non-Alibaba suppliers either utilize the online or the real canton fair depending on when it re-opens, as it happens I just released a video on this yesterday, but check out this playlist to see what the real canton fair looks like too! kzbin.info/aero/PLAVj5pdoryFY0T-tPYULXjZURexh4S5Eh

[@osho711]

@@SourcingWithKian Thanks again> One more question, it is a bit generic. Would you recommend a supplier from canton fair over Alibaba supplier? I find that prices are better with Non-Alibaba suppliers.

[@osho711]

Nevermind, you answered this in Canton fair video.

[@Breath-Relax-Release]

Hey my name Terry, I am very interested in learning more about how to Ordering how can I get more information.

[@mercyndlovu9654]

hello kian i love your videos they are very informative i have already started looking for an agent in China because i am new into this but i cant find any please or recommend someone for me i would really appreciate it thank you

[@SourcingWithKian]

Hey Mercy thanks for reaching out and glad you enjoy the videos! I don't actually personally know any good sourcing agents since i've never hired one myself, but if you like feel free to send what you're looking for and estimated QTY to [e-mail] and I'll see if it's something I can help with - take care

[@morocCaNhmed]

Where are from Kian?

[@theiamnatalie718]

Thank you for this!! Appreciate it greatly. Will you clarify for me what is high and low season? I understood Q4 as high, but what about the rest of the year?

[@theiamnatalie718]

And we need to get you a mic 🎙!

[@SourcingWithKian]

Hey Natalie, sure High season is basically their busiest time of the year for production and Low season is their quietest time of the year for production. Depending on the prouduct, lets say it's halloween costumes or Christmas lights, there's going to be a time where they will be very busy and not so busy. If you can place your order when they are not so busy you are far more likely to get a lower MOQ and better price. And you can also ask them straight up when is your high season and when is your low season and they will be impressed and happy that you asked :)

[@SourcingWithKian]

Haha I have got a mic since this video, it was filmed last year though when I was operating with just a small go-pro, now I've got the works :)

[@言自在]

not exactly😂, we company use alibaba. because our product only sold in China before. big factory, 400 million sales per year. alibaba is one of our channel to get customers
