Greetings! Are you talking about setting up an import connection in the U.S to sell large quantities of furniture? Or are you talking about reaching out to the individual consumer via online sales, such as through eBay?

Recently, I have a partnership with a chinese party in China who is able to produce such outdoor furniture ( synthetic woven wicker furniture) . As a newly startup ,I do not have much customer contact or a proper business and marketing plan but I know that there are huge demand for such furniture in Europe and America. I have thought of participating in exibitions but my budget dont allow me to do so. I have also tried sending emails to many customers in US but no one seems to be replying. I hope you can give me some professional advice . Thank You

This is just an idea, perhaps you should hire a distributor in US, or a "multi cards" sales person. Some sales or distributors work for multi companies.

I am wanting to start selling outdoor patio furniture as a seperate business. I own a patio and water feature business here in georgia. I would like to talk to you more on this and just get a good idea of what I might be getting into. This industry would run parralell with my business, in that one would and could sell the other. So if you get a chance write me back and give me an idea of what your looking forward to doing.

Thanks, John Davis

Do you have any plan for such business in India as well? I can partner with
you for India if you think
it is lucrative to expand towards India.
