Hello from the middle of Mainland China – we are recording live at our Yiwu sourcing Trip. It is a pleasure to bring back Ino on the show from Insight Quality – and discuss how things went with the moka pot sourcing and other items in the past – and how we should do it better this time around.

We have a conversation at the workshop – and after the interview I talk about what we accomplished during the event and the sourcing plans for going forward, enjoy!

Topics Covered in this Episode

  • Welcome Ino

    Hey, Ino – welcome back!

  • How you felt things went

    How was our first year of sourcing from Yiwu, to you, Ino

  • What we could have done better

    Discussing decision making process

  • Going forward - more products

    Getting more products added, faster – with lower MOQ

  • Talk about Packaging

    One strategy we learned from Meir is more generic products with custom packaging – a kind of one size fits all solution.
