Q10: How will our company’s Inquiry to Buy stand out?
A10: We place the Inquiries to Buy under separate Business Categories (Industries) such as Chemicals, Machinery, Franchising and Environment, among others. These categories are clearly divided for visual distinction. To insure that your Inquiry stands out, Make sure the title is clear; avoid vague language, symbol, and lengthy explanations. Remember, the supplier only skims through the Business Category (Industry ). So, unless your title is clear from the first time, he will miss it
Q11: Where did you come up with these Business Categories (Industries) from?

Q13: Sounds too good to be true!
A13: Actually no! It’s simply an effective way to do business.

3- Export to the United States is a safe, secure and reliable way of breaking into new markets and/or increasing market share for companies around the world
