How do you build a start-up team of foreign trade dealers

Read so many media on the foreign trade in the report, have you ever thought that you also come to play a? Confucius taught us: it is a pleasure to learn while learning. Today I combine some of my own experience, and we share how to form a start-up of the Foreign Trade Corps team.

At the beginning of 2010, the first fast-selling, the author opened the shop, looking for cargo goods to take delivery of a full package, and so sold a inescapable after the discovery, the profit and I was just a number backstage, not in my pocket, my life is not because the backstage of that number and become better, but the days over the tighter. I just graduated from college, no money in hand, fast-selling lending policy is not so flexible now, my capital turnover is not open, shops stopped. After that, I stopped being a platform.

So, at the beginning of the article, need to define the content of the discussion, the foreign trade electric business play a lot of, do business-to-business calculation, do the speed of the Dunhuang count, do ebay,amazon calculate, do Etsy,souq and so on small platform also calculate, even the media now the sea Amoy such business also fall to the scope of cross-border electricity. But these, I am not familiar with, have no say.

The only thing I can share with you is: the foreign trade of the Independent website, the grassroots background, how to form a start-up team. Why do you choose to build your own independent web site? Second, the site is their own, want to change on the change. Three, the flow cost is their own, so the core of the team is to solve the marketing problem.

A registered company?

Although from yesterday (March 1), in the mainland can also register 1 Yuan company, but this does not mean that you need to register a company. If you do not intend to open a bank transfer in this collection channel, it is not even necessary to register as a foreign trade company as an offshore company. As long as your employees do not with you than this true, to get a business license of the matter first, the later business up again not too late. Set up a team, some people have the ideal is enough.

What kind of person are you looking for?

Pay attention to the "find" people I use, not "recruit" people, hiring is for large companies. In the early days of entrepreneurship, no one has no money, no spacious office, no beauty, the traditional recruitment channels recruited people, see the Empty writing room (also may be two bedroom) in you alone, may not dare to come to work. This time to "find someone", before looking for someone, first step to know who to look for? Generally speaking, it is shegang to recruit people by post. Want to come out singled out independent foreign trade, common is the following two kinds of background: first, there have been previous experience, the second is the traditional foreign trade bosses want to be electrocuted. Foreign trade and domestic electricity dealers from the post, there is no difference. All need technology, marketing, operations, procurement, logistics, these five functional modules. The Personnel administration finance? Well, before you make any money, you have to work hard.

Technology: Grassroots team, their own development from beginning to end of the work of the bar, open source of the CMS. Front end? No, a PHP programmer is enough, follow a few excellent peer website, give me a fit version, the following flow came in and then gradually optimized.

Operation: Good listening point on the operation, the early days is the translation + repair map + shelves, operation is fine live, need to have the money come in slowly fine. Domestic operations to do the best electric business case should be Taobao small second operation.

Procurement & Logistics: All over the flexible arrangements according to their own circumstances, is the network procurement, or file mouth to take goods, or on behalf of the delivery, according to the resources at hand flexible arrangements. It should be explained that the procurement and logistics is the best of their own, not responsible staff not only lack of awareness of cost control, but also to the customer's receiving experience becomes worse. The initial stage of playing overseas warehouse is not a grassroots team, not in this article discussion scope.

Marketing: Put it in the end, because this is the lifeblood of the start-up company. Start-up early, the site did a good job, the product description again beautiful, procurement and logistics smoother, no traffic everything is zero. This is the main contradiction, to be placed in the first priority. can be responsible for their own best, do not understand, you must find a general sits. Want to play good foreign trade, the founder in the initial stage must be proficient in these 5 modules to master 1-2 modules, only to grasp the odds. Not familiar with every link? Then you should save the money for other projects. OK, now back to the question of how to find someone:

Technology: to the training institutions to ask, said you can provide a job here, so that the other teachers to recommend a few fast graduate students, the requirements of entrepreneurial spirit. PHP programmers, just graduated general monthly salary to 5-6k can be written into their training website "Outstanding students" case.

Operation: Three-stream University, English majors, go directly to their school employment service department dignitaries, General monthly salary 3-4k or so, can recruit the best girls from rural origin, willing to endure hardship, self-motivated strong.

Procurement & Logistics: As I said before, be flexible with the resources you have on hand.

Marketing: The general traditional industry bosses, easy to have a naïve idea: because they do not understand, hope that the marketing outsourcing. Borrow Mr.hua: We firmly believe that network marketing can only rely on their own. The cost of the wages saved in the previous three departments is spent on the marketing department. Marketing people can not be done. Don't start if you can't find a general. Take out the list of Jichang to find litsea teeth of the spirit, well look for you responsible for the flow of people. Such a person can not be asked, you need to start around with the power to start to find.

High-tension line: For people who have had previous experience, another easy mistake is to pull people from the original company. Especially in the foreign trade electric business this competition without the bottom line has had the Nanjing brother to curse the industry. Ma Yun once said a word: "If one day you intend to come out to start a business, go on your own, do not take away others." Or sooner or later, one of your men will learn your kind. "So no matter from the moral level or the business level, this kind of thing still do not good." This industry circle is too small, everyone looked down to see, there is no need to do something for the benefit of their own later very embarrassed. Well, if you are lucky enough, perhaps a short period of time to find the right person, the formation of their own foreign trade power Corps team.

The author's conclusion: I do not have a few years of work, the first time to write articles, should webjust of the students told: to connect the atmosphere, if the start-up team. Do not know whether it is useful to everyone, thank you for your support!
