perspective so that we understand alibaba business a little better but first i must welcome you new friends and old friends i love sharing my knowledge with you to help you improve your sourcing iq that's your knowledge and your sourcing eq that's your emotional intelligence your style your passion your attitude after sourcing for 20 years i understand bows are very important to get that great supplier jumping through hoops for you so if you haven't subscribed make sure you do that right now now let's take a look where these verified suppliers belong to alibaba business the reason the verified supplier exists is because alibaba is in the trust business without the trade assurance without the verified supplier alibaba cannot dominate this giant b2b ecommerce platform remember those days any supplier can sign up on alibaba.com that lead to bad people scammers start to damage and ruin alibaba's reputation that's why alibaba put their foot down putting the effort and investment to restructure their company and re-qualify these suppliers that's why we have this verified supplier but wait a minute who verified the supplier alibaba or independent third party let's check all right we're on alibaba.com searching for a beautiful yoga mat we're gonna apply the verified supplier filter here to find out who did the verification work for these factories first we notice that we have the trade assurance filter we have the verified supplier filter but we no longer have the gold supplier filter where did the gold supplier go why alibaba no longer has the independent filter for them don't worry i'm gonna explain all of that in section number four alibaba suppliers tier system so you understand the importance of each supplier in alibaba's database now we're going to apply verified supplier now we have a list of verified suppliers beautiful to check who did the verification work we can just click on supplier profile on the front page it says this agency tuv did the verification let's check another one this company it says sgs group did the verification as we continue to check we're gonna find three companies doing the factory verification work we have tov we have sgs can you guess the third one the third one is inter-tech these are the three independent agencies doing the verification work currently i'm actually very glad that alibaba is using these third parties to do the factory verification because that gave a lot of credibility and weight to this little verified supplier symbol since we're on the subject of the third party inspection i must give you a pro tip for your own product can you trust these verified suppliers internal quality control inspection of course you can but would you no you wouldn't in the mastermind course i teach the student each and every time you must hire your own independent third party inspection company to check quality one bad quality review it's gonna cost you hundreds of sales you might not even know it and i teach the student not only you hire a reputable third-party inspection agency you rotate three to prevent corruption now we're gonna check exactly what these agencies verify for each one of the suppliers on our verified supplier list this is alibaba's claim they said for each one of their verified suppliers they have these agency check six checkpoint the company business their trading capacity and the product capability related questions so we are going to put two of our suppliers top two suppliers side by side to see exactly what they have checked first one is the sense jiangsu environmental company second one is avarice fitness company by the name of a sans environmental technology company can you tell me is this a chinese company or is a foreign-owned company if you have watched the alibaba sourcing hack you should know the answer this is a foreign-owned company because their name already tell me so if you don't know why watch that video first now let's follow our inspection company tuv and do a company tour of this verified supplier first checkpoint is company overview it looks like each verified supplier has a 180 degree view of whatever they are proud of this company showcase their big building entrance and their warehouse and then the ever rice company showcase their production area and their showroom what i really want you to check is the middle section this is actually the meat of the company profile the business structure is here number of employee here and this section take you inside of the company you can see inside of their office employees and products inside of this section i want you to watch this two minutes video each one of these two minutes video seems to give you a lot more company details every fitness company limited is specialized in fitness equipment it is located in suzhou city nearby shanghai i think you get the point now let's move on to the second checkpoints main market their trading capability pay attention to the percentage that they trade with overseas supplier the more they trade with overseas customers the more experience they have and the better they can serve you look at this sense technology company they have domestic market percentage as 85 to me this company do huge volume and selling mostly into domestic chinese market every rice fitness company they trade with north america 55 south america 11 and they have three patents if you are private label seller which company would you choose to customize your product i heard what you said you said ever rise not too fast my friend because we're gonna do the third checkpoint production capability let's take a look we see bands we see workers behind these little parts and we see more of the same thing this is what they call production line workers work around the table and the warehouse if you have sourcing warriors mastermind you know exactly what you are looking at because we have a full factory audit checklist and i do a full tutorial to help you understand what you should be looking for in this picture do you see yoga mat production equipment none you see sewing machine you see belt cutting machine you see punching machine but you don't see any yoga production capability right now let's look at sense technology this is their production capability and they have a low density foaming production lines i know what you're thinking sense technology seems to have a better yoga mat production capability we're going to move forward to the first checkpoint quality control you probably can guess that every quality control will not be as good as sense technology as you can see here they have testing equipment nada it's verified they have nothing what about sense technology this is their quality control section they have these series of testing equipment these are such a great awesome data provided by tuv they tell us exactly what it is now let's move forward to the checkpoint number five rnd capability this is a very important section for you to check if your product requires certification this company actually posted three patents they have interesting the sense company they don't have any r d section here as i was wondering why this large company doesn't even have r d department i was able to download this pdf and see what they have in the r d department it indicates that they have 10 people working in the r d department this report is great it will give you the inspection detail every verified company has this pdf file you can download look our avarice inspection company has this too we are heading to the last checkpoint customer service ever rights company they are quite good 86 response rate and very fast within 24 hours and lately they have a 21 quotation performance our sense technology company they got nothing to reference six checkpoints for each verified display we're gonna do a quick review in just a little bit but first let's ask that question how do they verify the trading company let's take a look at this company sgs did the verification the company overview is here everything seems to be legit they even have the production capability why i'm suspecting this company is a trading company just look at their product we are seeing headband scarves notebook yoga mat phone cover mousepad here by the way i explained in great detail how you identify the trading company in the alibaba sourcing hack video so if we are thinking this supplier is a trading company who is this factory that sgs verified they look very legit they even have these equipment well according to alibaba when they verify the trading company they verify the association company the factory that is associated with the trading company what's the lesson for you when you look at the verified suppliers just because you see these production capability photos you don't assume this supplier is a direct oem you still have to check their product line to see what do they sell are they capable to customize my beautiful yoga mat we're almost done with this tutorial but i really wanted to give you the last tip that is alibaba suppliers tiers within the database now i want you to imagine there's a pyramid on the bottom there's a lot of suppliers applied to become alibaba suppliers then you pay to upgrade to become a gold supplier only after you become a gold supplier now you are qualified to become a third-party verified supplier now you have your independent filter but wait there is a little more on top of the pyramid among these verified suppliers some have these little circles some don't what are they these are supplier attacks this is alibaba's way to differentiate very good suppliers so when you run into the suppliers who has these little circles maybe gave a little more favor now let me show you where is our golden gold supplier if we uncheck the verified supplier filter we should be able to find the gold suppliers somewhere see here there's one the gold supplier no longer have the independent filter but they have a little symbol here underneath their name as you can see here this supplier doesn't have the verified supplier badge but they are the gold supplier as i explained earlier you pay to become a gold supplier and then you are qualified to be verified i love this because this is going to push the gold supplier to become a verified supplier to earn more trust from us buyers so today we did a full tutorial on alibaba's verified suppliers after this video you should be able to explain to your friend how does the verified supplier work who does the verification what are the six points they check once they get into the factory how do they verify the trading company most importantly where does this verified supplier belong in this pyramid the fact that alibaba is pushing more suppliers especially their gold suppliers to become verified supplier is alibaba's strategy to earn more buyers trust now i'm to ask the important question that we asked at the beginning of the video can we trust this verified supplier well finding this verified supplier is just the beginning step it's just the step that we feel safe to do business with this supplier whether we can turn this supplier from verified to a trustworthy supplier it has a lot to do with us too we as a buyer we have to communicate clearly of our expectations in terms of our design protection our quality expectation when there are problems we don't just through our hands and say hey i want my refund we work with them and we manage this verified supplier that's why we need both sourcing iq and sourcing eq to turn this verified supplier into a trust worthy supplier i would love to share everything i know with you in the sourcing warrior mastermind course if you haven't already check out the link and
