Competitive Intelligence Global Trade Services
New Competitive Intelligence Services Online Database Provides Vital Global Trade Information For Importers And Exporters
Visiting online B2B sourcing marketplaces is often one of the first steps to gather market intelligence that many global traders employ. Unfortunately these global trade services web sites often provide very poor results since most are little more than platforms for paid-placement advertisements from factories and they are often cluttered with time-wasting free listings that are given to any want-to-be global trader as a lure to sell them advertising later.

Because the factories paying for advertising keep these web
sites up and running, they can write whatever they want about themselves. None of these leading
global trade service marketplaces adequately police their paid (or unpaid) advertisers to ensure factual reporting, so buyers
using these as a competitive intelligence solution are at a distinct
disadvantage.
Enter a new U.S. global trade services firm offering the most technologically advanced global trade
competitive intelligence online databases compiled from shipment manifest data for all ocean freight entering the country and
provides it to you in a user friendly easily searchable online format.
Subscribers to this new maritime data network service access records on all foreign shipping to US ports which makes it one of the most valuable competitive intelligence tools available to both importers and exporters.
In addition to being the most advanced user friendly
maritime data network available online for competitive marketing intelligence
purposes, this global trade service makes performing due diligence a cinch.
You simply type in a supplier’s name, and their search engine instantly returns detailed
global trade information on all of the supplier's U.S. bound shipments, including contact information for each
of their buyer's.
Using this competitive intelligence tool to check up on your current suppliers will
help you discover who else they are selling to, and what percentage of their U.S. sales your business represents.
You might ask, "how will global trade information like this help our
business?". Consider for a moment if you learn that your company is their biggest U.S. customer by a significant margin,
this may be time to negotiate better prices and marketing intelligence like this
gives you the edge in winning those negotiations.
importance of competitive intelligence and analysis in the world of international business
Perhaps the following will illustrate the importance of
competitive intelligence - you have direct access to data that will show you exactly where each of your competitors
source their products. You simply type in any U.S. importer’s name to immediately see a list of all the ocean freight shipments
they have received since January 2006. For each shipment, you’ll get the product description, date of arrival, weight, and number of units along with contact information for the overseas supplier.
This valuable competitive intelligence tool also allows you search by product, so you can instantly
identify all the companies importing any product type into the U.S.
and learn exactly where they bought that item overseas.
Used in this fashion, this new global trade service becomes a powerful competitive intelligence tool for market research, helping you determine how you size up against rivals you
may not have known you had.
According to the founders of this new competitive intelligence service, it is already being used by some of the world’s biggest companies to find new sources, analyze current suppliers, and monitor their competitors.
However, the company’s pricing models actually makes it affordable even for smaller import-export firms.
So let's sum this up with a few questions:
-
Would it help your company to know who your competitor's customers are and how many shipments they are shipping to them?
-
Would this type of competitive intelligence help you target the "best" potential customers, i.e., the companies that are already buying the products you sell?
-
Would your company benefit from learning exactly where each of your competitors is sourcing their products?
-
If you are importing and you could learn that your company is the biggest USA customer for a manufacturer/supplier and what percentage of their USA sales your business represented - would this marketing intelligence help you decide to negotiate for better prices?
-
Would your business benefit by learning what other companies your current suppliers may be selling to?
-
Would it help you to learn where and from what company a retailer or wholesaler is buying a product?
-
Would your sourcing due diligence become much easier if all you had to do is type in an importer's name and immediately have a list of all the ocean freight shipments they have received since January 2006 and who those shipments were from appear on your computer screen?
The above questions represent only a few you can get answered by gathering the right market
intelligence and this new service will provide you with answers to all of the questions.
You will be able to search by product and instantly identify all the companies importing any product type into the USA and
learn exactly where (and from whom) they bought that product.
Here is a list of some of the data you will get about each shipment:
-
Product description
-
Date of arrival
-
Weight
-
Number of units
-
Contact information for the overseas supplier!
Some of the
largest companies in the world are already using this new service to find new sources, analyze current suppliers,
and monitor their competitors. Best of all, your company does not need to be one of the world's biggest
to afford this new service. They have various packages, including a monthly
plan, all of which are affordable to smaller import-export firms.
In my humble, 20 years of experience opinion, this competitive intelligence
global trade service provides importers and exporters with the BEST possible
resource for finding "REAL" buyers and "REAL" sellers.
