To act as an agent for imported skateboards, you can follow these steps:

First, regarding procedures, you need to register a legal company with business scope including relevant categories such as sports goods. You also need to handle procedures related to the right to operate import and export, such as filing and registration with departments like the Bureau of Commerce, Customs, and State Administration of Foreign Exchange.

Next, to find sources of goods, by participating in international skateboard exhibitions, you can directly get in touch with many foreign skateboard brand manufacturers and learn about their products and cooperation policies. You can also use cross - border e - commerce platforms to screen high - quality imported skateboard suppliers, but pay attention to examining their reputation and product quality. You can ask them to send samples for inspection.

Then, for opening up the market, use online channels such as social media and skateboard forums for publicity and promotion, showcasing the unique features and advantages of imported skateboards, such as unique designs and high - quality materials. You can also cooperate with local skateboard clubs to hold activities, allowing more skateboarders to experience the charm of the products and gradually building up word - of - mouth and customer groups.
