As an Australian Bronze member you will receive the following:

DOOR TO DOOR EXPORT - IMPORT SERVICE

Between our employees and myself we have over 20 years experience in exporting and importing from China. We can provide a range of services depending on the nature of your exports. We can export FCL (full container load) and LCL less than container load. To most major ports in the world using China Shipping or other major shipping lines. We arrange the entire process from exporting your goods from China to delivering to your door.

For any of you who have 'dabbled' in importing goods from outside the Australia before, you may have found that once your goods arrived you got a nasty surprise when you were invoiced for the import fees .Unfortunately many people pay over the odds when they are importing. Yes there are essential costs, GST and Duty etc. But all the other charges freight, paperwork, document handling, port charges, customs clearance and transport. are often charges much higher than they should be. At EASY IMEX we look after our members interests not just with exporting but the entire import process right up to getting your goods to your door. You will find all the fees are the cheapest possible rates due to the volume we bring in and we are very transparent about these charges from the outset.

MONTHLY EXPORT

Once per month we run an export which is made up of smaller orders from our members. This means we can export smaller quantities of goods for our members in a way that gives them the same cost advantage as companies that import their own container loads. This is a very unique service and one that offers smaller companies and individuals the chance to compete, if not beat the big players on price! Our monthly exports to Australia come into Sydney and are then forwarded to your door from Sydney.

Exporting and Importing are both complete minefields if you are not experienced in these areas. At EASY IMEX we make import & export EASY!

CUSTOMS TAX & DUTY

One of the things that puts many people off importing is the minefield of customs clearance, tax, duty, commodity codes etc. As an EASY IMEX member we arrange for your goods to be cleared through customs and handle all paperwork on your behalf, we take care of all tax and duty and handle the whole lot in the most cost effective way. In short, as a member of EASY IMEX we take care of all of this for you. We will explain and educate you how it all works as we believe that in order to build the best trading relationships an appreciation of how each others business works goes a long way. If you are an experienced importer and wish to handle your own imports, naturally this is fine with us.

OUR CREDIBILITY AND REPUTATION

Once purchasing a membership to EASY IMEX we will supply to you all of our companies contact details, including email address, phone numbers, skype ID, and our office address. We are a Ltd company in the UK, Australia Chinese mainland and Hong Kong. You can check this with Companies house in the UK if you would like to verify this for yourself. Also, if you wish we can provide you many references from other business's, eBay power sellers and importers in the UK, Australia, USA, Canada and New Zealand all of whom are members and I can assure you are 110% delighted with the services we offer.

OUR EXPERIENCE

Between myself and my employees we have over 20 years experience in import & export. We have seen plenty of success stories and at the same time seen many things fail.

We often get people asking for products we either know will not work or there is just too little profit in it which would not make it feasible. I am a very direct person and I know this is something most importers prefer. If we know something’s not going to work nor has no profit in it, we will tell you straight. We find that most people often think of importing fancy/sexy products of high value such as Plasma screen TV’s. My response to people like this is why import something of such high value, which is going down in price all the time? Is one of the most competitive products to sell, and if your lucky, you may make 100 bucks per screen. It also requires a great deal of capital to buy a small amount of stock, when you can sell things like garden lights all day long and make a 50% mark up? In short, not only will we source and export to you, but we will stop you making obvious mistakes we have already made or seen. We are not here to do research for you, to offer you a great product on a plate (though we often do) but if you are new to importing and need a nudge in the right direction we will do so!

I would love to give some detailed explanations at this stage to enlighten people about what products are great to import. However, these are ‘trade secrets’ and not something I would want to broadcast to the world, as there have been plenty of people on eBay in the last 12 months ‘knocking off’ what we are offering when really they have no clue!

At the end of the day, if our members don’t make money, they won’t come back and spend more, so naturally it’s in our interest too!

COMMUNICATION

Once you have become a member of EASY IMEX, we will naturally pass over all our contact details. This will enable you to have direct contact with our different departments, account managers, sourcing team and myself.

As well as email and phone communication we run regular online support sessions for members over Skype. This way you can instant message, phone or teleconference with us. For those of you who don’t know what Skype is, it’s a way of talking over the Internet for free and works as good as a real phone. All you need is a headset or USB phone. The reason we like to use Skype is because what can sometimes take several emails to explain can be explained over the phone in seconds.

Although we have several Chinese employees, whom you may deal with from time to time, initially most of your communication will be via myself. I will provide you with all of my personal contact details so I am contactable at all times.

Been trying to locate a product in China? Not sure where to start looking? Or are you fed up of contacting agents on global sources and alibaba pretending they are factories and getting silly quotes? Not sure who to trust?

EASY IMEX is a member of two Chinese government associations, which have been set up for the sole purpose of encouraging foreign export. This gives us direct access to 80,000 factories all over China. Not agents, like you will find on the Internet claiming ‘they are the factory’ we deal with the factories direct. In addition to this we also have Chinese employees who are experienced in sourcing and work with us to support your requirements.

One point I will make here. Sourcing goods, getting the information, negotiating the minimum order quantities can still take hours of work. We will endeavour to do our best to source any product you're after. However, at the same time we are here to be productive, to trade and make money.
China produces almost 70% of the worlds GDP. China is the world’s factory. Therefore the choice of products is immense. As a member of EASY IMEX you will be able to import most things. However, there’s quite a bit to take in to consideration before you decide which goods to import. As a member we will, if you chose guide you through which products are worth importing, and which ones are not.

Once we have sourced the products you are after we will also negotiate on your behalf the quantity and price. Before we export your goods we run quality control checks to make sure that what you have ordered is exactly what we are exporting for you.
As a member of EASY IMEX we also provide a ‘Product of the week’ suggestion of goods we feel are 'hot' to import.

IMPORTANT NOTE!

EASY IMEX does not export brand name goods.

At EASY IMEX we provide three levels of membership. Our range of memberships cater for individuals wanting to import on smaller scales, to business wanting to import multiple container loads.

Our membership levels are divided into Bronze, Silver & Gold. Please see the tables below to see a clear outline of what services we provide with corresponding membership levels and to which countries we offer these services to.

OUR GOAL FOR NEW MEMBERS

Ultimately we would like each of our members to be purchasing goods via the container load. However, we all have to start somewhere and here we are offering a solution for anyone to start importing. Even with limited capital we are able to get you importing using our monthly export service. We don’t promise people we can make them rich over night, importing is a slow process. Although we have a unique set up here and can offer major price advantages for people to start trading even with limited capital.

All we ask is for people to be as serious about building up their business as we are ours. If your purchasing anything less than $1000 per month from us, all we ask is instead of spending a few hundred dollars worth of profit down the pub, you keep re-investing in buying stock as ultimately, we would like to see members bringing in their own container loads! Manufacturing and export from China is a trend which will not change for at least the next twenty years. We are in this for the long term and we hope that all of our members are as well.

The bottom line is, we are not a charity, we are in this for the money, and the more you order from us, the more we all make.

One of the single most important parts of the process of importing goods from China is Quality control. Truth be told and common knowledge to any experienced importer. The quality of goods from many Chinese factories is in many cases below standard. This is probably the single biggest problem of importing goods from China not the risk of not getting goods, but basically the risk of importing goods which don’t work / are the wrong power supply / such poor quality thy are not fit for porous / and generally not what you ordered! Many errors occur due to communication issues or making assumptions when ordering goods.

Quality control is a vast area and obviously varies for different types of product. At EASY IMEX we quality control all goods before they are exported. We have different levels of quality control that we implement using a network of engineers and specialist Chinese companies. This is an essential part of the import process if you want to get it right, and is something that we manage on your behalf with the factories.

When you place an order with EASY IMEX you will automatically be covered against loss or damage during transit. As your goods are travelling from China half way across the world there are many things that can occur which result in goods being damaged. We try and limit these problems as much as possible by making sure the goods and containers are packed correctly in the first place. Unfortunately ships do sink, containers go over board, rough seas, poor handling at the ports and through customs can result in badly damaged goods.

At EASY IMEX your goods are fully insured by us meaning if once you receive your goods they are badly damaged you have seven days to make a claim. Importing CAN be a risky business, using our experience and our services Importing with EASY IMEX is simple, and risk free.

PERSONAL ACCOUNT MANAGER

For Silver and Gold members only we will assign you your own personal Account Manager who will look supervise your day to day requirements with us, invoices, quotes, questions and more.

SOURCING MATCHES PER MONTH

Each level of membership, Gold, Silver & Bronze we allow a different number of sourcing requests. Sourcing products and gaining all required information is a process that can take hours. For a member who's first order is going to be $1000 and bearing in mind that each product has a Minimum order quantity (although we will negotiate this for you as best as we can) there is little point sourcing 50 products for a budget that will only be able to start importing a handful. We all have a mutual aim to trade and from experience we have found that concentrating on a smaller number of products in the earlier stages achieves better results towards getting trading.

MINIMUM ORDER VALUE

For each membership level, Gold Silver and Bronze there is a different MINIMUM ORDER VALUE. The minimum order value is the minimum amount of an order we will accept for your corresponding membership. The Minimum order value is the value of the products only and does not include tax duty and freight. As a Bronze member, your initial order MUST be a MINIMUM of $1000 AUD, however, you should allow another 30-50% of this value to cover tax, duty & freight.

COUNTRIES AND SERVICES SUPPORTED BY EASY IMEX

WHY WE CHARGE FOR MEMBERSHIPS?

We have in the past listed similar auctions to this and many people have been baffeled, some almost offended and can't understand why we charge an upfront fee for our services. If you are one of these people please allow me to explain.

When we purchase products from factories, we add on a 3% - 10% margin on top of the value of the goods our customers have order. This depends on the size, work evolved and nature of the order.

Out of this margin just like any Business we have to pay for our overheads, administration charges from Chinese customs, my employees wages, office rent , tax etc etc.

So when people want to order relatively small quantities of goods, lets say around $1000 the most we make a gross profit of just $100 which hardly pays the bills. We don't mind taking on people who want to start with smaller quantities to begin with, but we need to work with people, over time so that their exports and our 3% - 10% actually does pay our bills! (please see our Goal for New Members.)

We have in the past helped many people who have asked for items, unfortunately though there are far to many 'window shoppers' and after wasting hours upon hours sourcing goods, calculating export charges, freight rates, duty & Tax, inland freight from the docks to their door most people either never go ahead with a transaction or want to order very small amounts of stock. In short the ratio of work from our side/money we make does not make it feasible. We do not and can not sell to 'the mass's'. Its not the way our business works. We exist to gain new members and work with everyone of them on a close and personal basis. To do this can take many hours from ourside before it becomes profitable for us. We need to work with Business or individuals who are serious about developing and growing business, otherwise its just not worth it for us.

So other than that why else do we charge for memberships to EASY IMEX? I have spent over three years living in China, travelling to different factories. When I first moved to Shanghai I couldn't even find a post office, yet alone have the ability to contact over 80,000 factories AND then be able to export from anyone of them.

Like most westerners do when they come to China, I tried to do business with Chinese the western way. Thinking the western way is fair, direct and that any Chinese companies who want to do business with me should do business on my terms as this was the correct way to do business! I still see westerners come to China all the time and do exactly the same thing everyday!

I have had to learn how to do business in a very different culture, which has been very stressful to say the least. I have spent thousands of hours learning the language over coming obstacles in order for EASY IMEX to now be able to offer you these services.

So, what has taken me and my employees thousands of hours, a hell of a lot of stress, learning Mandarin and how to do business in China we are offering you the benefit of all of this for a one off fee.

So, if you think we should not be charging for memberships to EASY IMEX, I only have one message for you....
COME TO CHINA AND DO IT YOURSELF!
