Common questions
What's the difference between the free checklist and the $47 Pack?
The free checklist tells you what to check (34 checkpoints). The Pack gives you the working tools: fill-in worksheets, ready-to-send email templates, the PI clause review sheet, the inspector brief and the freight decision math — the documents you actually use from first outreach to loading.
Who is the consult with? A salesperson?
With one of the four researchers who write this site — the same people who walk Yiwu District 1-5 and Huaqiangbei. It's advice, not a sourcing-agent pitch. We don't take commissions from factories, so we have nothing to steer you toward.
Can you be my sourcing agent and buy for me?
We deliberately don't do hands-on procurement — independence is the product. If your project needs full-service agents, the Custom Report includes directions to vetted ones (and how to check them).
What if the report isn't useful for my product?
If the report misses your category cluster or the benchmarks are off, tell us within 7 days — we redo it free or refund. We keep this promise because most buyers come back for consults anyway.
