You can find brands with a good reputation, excellent product quality, and market potential through channels such as participating in industry exhibitions, online industry forums, and consulting industry insiders, like a powerful one like Zhongshitong.

Negotiating with the brand owner is very important. Try to strive for more favorable agency conditions, such as reducing the first batch of purchase volume and extending the payment period, which can relieve the financial pressure. In addition, ask the brand owner clearly about the support policy for after-sales service.
