FTN Exporting official publication "International Trade and the Successful Intermediary"(ITSI) is about to be released world wide (December 2009) by the prestigious U.K publishing firm Gower's (U.K) and is listed on Amazon.com (Keyword: International Trade Intermediary) ITSI is ostensibly the first uniform intermediary trading doctrine of its kind, and will become the standard intermediary practice world wide in years to come.

Question Surfing the internet for ages @ times without stumbling on such a great value added edge like yours makes me really bitter for the time wasted.
I am really impressed and encouraged so to say that i should not drop the idea of still legitimately being an import export INTERMEDIARY, AGENT and BROKER.
Unfortunately, the internet provides a very effective medium for fraudsters, who find it easy enough to build attractive websites, send persuasive emails, and generate convincing Corporate Offers.
It has indeed been difficult for me to make a legitimate living trading with the Internet peppered with these dishonest and fraudulent offers.
I have wasted years, attempting to do business with these frauds.
Rather than wasting anymore of my time and risking my reputation on completely unverifiable sources, i have resolved @ this point to humbly ask for your hand in closing deals.
For the first time ever am beginning not to feel lost.
I need your mentorship to be an import export INTERMEDIARY that will finally close deals.
Just let me know where to start and i would be glad to comply.
Regards,
Luqman.
Answer
Dear Luqman
Thank you for your compliments.I know what you are feeling I wasted 6 or 7 years doing the same when i started in 1988. I went to college and although there was was plenty of lessons and advicde on how an exporter deals with an importer directly in a two party deal but nothing to assist intermediaires- To add insult to injury LOI,BCL, ICPO, NCNA MPA and all the other nonsense we see on the net today never appared once in any module I was studying-
Slowly and surely it all starting to make sense . The rules were already in place for an intermediary to act as a third party in a two party deal- The understading of the term "seller and buyer" was the key that unlocked everything- A seller is anyoneone who sells goods - this means a Supplier who has possession of goods is defined in the same manner as a a Taxi driver who is also trying to "Sell" something- Like wise the buyer could mean an end buyer buying goods and taking possession of goods or a Butcher shop owner who was trying to also "buy" such goods-
Intermediaries never deal in possesion of goods - only "title " to such goods-
This revelation hit me like a ton of bricks. I simply used the same rules and laws that an end buyer uses when buying from a supplier- I adopted and adapted such rules to define a set of proceudres that legally allows a intermediary to "Buy" and "sell" such goods. I Produced TWIY ( The World is Yours ) in 2005 -and Now offer my master works defined as FYBR IV (see: www.ftnexporting.com )
Later this year Gower's Publishers U.K is going to release our basic works world wide as ITSI.
It's the end of the road for LOI/BCL/ICPO traders-
I have becoem ostensibly by default the leading "Intermediary" expert on the planet today-Home trader , lawyers, bankers have all been studying my Doctrine - many have complimented me of the advice- a few have recorded trading success late last year-Many have gotten close to a real deal than ever before-
These deals are very complex- if one is going to trade they must be prepared to trade while they learn and study the doctrine - Experience finally sets in -in being able to identify false deal in 30 seconds flat- eventualy when that one real deal finally falls on your lap, the FYBR intermediary will know what to do to close such a deal.
One is learning the most commerical trading application in the world today . To trade is exciting- and Big dollars could to be earned with great effort and understanding to close one deal for huge gains-in a legally enforceable and effective manner. The intermediary MUST act as a sourcing intermediary in one isntance , then convert his position in a Live deal to take control of the deal as a legally defined " Buyer/seller"
The Buyer/seller deals with the Supplier. The Buyer/seller deals with the end buyer . The Buyer/sellers controls the deal. The Buyer/seller cannot be circumvented because one side never meets the other . The Buyer/seller pays all thoses who assisted him there fair commission- the Buyer/seller in charge 100%-
THe Buyer seller BUYS goods from HIS supplier using the funds of the HIS end Buyer to do so with full support of Laws, delivery rules and banking rules -
There is not other effective way to close such deals -My doctrine teaches the procedures. Skill, ability and effort of the intermediary over the long terms palys its part as well - together, the intermediary closes the deal when one becomes apparent-
The first golden rule- the first part of starting any deal is to secure the suppier- If that has not been done the deal NEVER starts-
Even if 1000 assumed "deals" come your way, if you or other attached to you are not unable to secure supply and disclose such to you ..NO DEAL
Once you have supply confirmed then and only then, following strict procedure you allow INTERMEDIARIES to source end buyer on you behlaf for commission protection-
Many time you'll secure supply but cannot secure an end buyer - until one day , it happens- and you have a real deal in your hand.That's your chance- Thats't the deal you have been waiting for- You close it Because YOU KNOW EXACTLEY WHAT TO DO -
I hope the abopve is clear and of help - it take 700 pages to define every step as per the above premise. If you are going to chase such deals then at the very least you MUST be informed and Know what you are doing- Traders today on the net will NOT earn you a cent of commission no matter how long one trades for because such flawed procedures simply don't work in the first place.
