With Q4 underway and the Christmas selling season fast approaching and little time to source from international suppliers now, I\u2019ve received a few requests for help regarding the easiest way to source products from genuine suppliers in the UK.<\/p>\n
Although \u2018what\u2019s the easiest way to source products in the UK?\u2019 appears to be quite a straightforward question, it is in fact a rather non-specific question, because to source products successfully depends on a number of different factors.<\/p>\n
Factors such as:<\/p>\n
All of these factors must be considered before you start your research. I don\u2019t mean to make it sound like it\u2019s impossible because of course it\u2019s not \u2013 I am proof that successful sourcing can be achieved – but it did occur to me that it\u2019s very easy to assume that you can get \u2018one for all\u2019 type information online\u2026but in doing it that way, it actually may be more of a hindrance to your product sourcing than a help.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve been sourcing products for over 12 years now and so I have experience and skill at doing this which is one of the reasons why I created The Source Report \u2013 my exclusive membership site that deals with all things \u2018sourcing\u2019 \u2013 and a whole lot more besides!<\/p>\n
Incidentally, I believe that I am the only online selling expert to offer full net profit calculations for all the products I suggest on The Source Report, so if me doing all the hard work for you is something that interests you please take a look here for more information on my trial offer here<\/u><\/a>.<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n Because I have product sourcing experience, I am more than aware that one of the hardest things to do when selling online is to find those genuine, reputable suppliers that will provide you with products at decent wholesale prices, enabling you to make a profit.<\/p>\n And I know how easy it is to get side-tracked and jump at the first product you see that looks like it can make you some money.<\/p>\n That product though must be a hot seller online (so research into the product is key) and it must also come from a reliable, genuine supplier and if you don\u2019t do your research you might find yourself in a bit of a situation. So today, I want to give you some useful information about finding genuine UK suppliers so that you can start to source products easily and safely.<\/p>\n Whilst sourcing from overseas is of course a strategy that you should without doubt consider, I know that suppliers that are \u2018close to home\u2019 are preferable for many people in the UK and of course there are advantages to sourcing from within the UK too.<\/p>\n For example:<\/p>\n Sometimes though, even though you have these advantages, you just won\u2019t get the absolute best prices when sourcing this way, even taking in to account extra customs and import charges if you source from overseas.<\/p>\n In your quest to find UK products and suppliers, it\u2019s easy to be taken in by offers of \u2018UK wholesale supplier lists\u2019 and \u2018directories\u2019 available to purchase on the internet.<\/p>\n What you need to be aware of is that it\u2019s easy to be sucked in by the offer of a \u2018wholesale list\u2019, thinking that it will be the answer to your prayers. But in fact this is exactly what you want to avoid.<\/p>\n Right now there are many UK wholesale lists and directories out there, all claiming to be the best, but only a tiny percentage of these are actually established, up to date, reliable and well known. Unfortunately so many of the paid for lists and directories that you can easily find on the internet \u2013 usually for specific niches – contain out-dated information, dead-links and not a lot else.<\/p>\n So if you want to find suppliers and source your products from the UK, how do you decide whether a wholesale directory is right for you and will help you find genuine UK based suppliers and isn\u2019t full of absolute rubbish?<\/p>\n Well, once again it\u2019s all about research. First up, anything advertised as a \u2018list\u2019 is probably not worth the paper it\u2019s typed on \u2013 and that\u2019s exactly what it will be \u2013 a typed list simply emailed to you containing information that you could easily have discovered yourself online with a small bit of research.<\/p>\n A good wholesale directory will provide you with details of genuine wholesalers, usually all in one place such as on a members website that you can log in to at any time.<\/p>\n So, if you want to subscribe to or purchase a UK wholesale directory to get you started on the product sourcing route you should make sure you do your research first.<\/p>\n So here\u2019s the key. If you want to use a UK supplier, once you have decided on your niche and product and know exactly what you are looking for try a \u2018wholesale directory\u2019 first \u2013 but make sure you choose the right one and you\u2019ll be sure to find excellent UK suppliers that will provide you with the genuine services that you require.<\/p>\n There is no \u2018easy way\u2019 to source products and find genuine suppliers \u2013 it takes time and research, plus practice \u2013 and don\u2019t forget, if you are stuck and you want all the hard work done for you, I can help you over at The Source Report<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" How to get your product sourcing off the ground in the UK\u2026and what to avoid!
