Hi, I’d love to help you find and qualify potential importers, exporters, and freight customers. I don’t have direct freight-forwarding experience yet, but I have 2 years of experience handling customer enquiries, data, reports, and social media for Shopify. I also have an MBA in Marketing, so I’m comfortable with lead generation, research, and customer communication. I can help with finding genuine leads, identifying decision-makers, maintaining Excel/Google Sheets records, following up, and keeping the sales pipeline organized. I’m a quick learner and can research the Indian, India–UAE, and other international markets as required. I’d be happy to discuss how I can help. Thanks for considering my proposal!

China to UAE lane - I bring real shippers. Based in Wenzhou, China's factory hub. As a sourcing agent for USA/Germany/UAE clients - motors, auto parts, shoes - I handle RFQs daily: origin, CBM, weight, Incoterms, sea/air. Focus for you: China-UAE, my strongest lane. 1. Exp: 3+ years sourcing + freight coordination, closing shipments for my own clients. 2. Markets: China-UAE, China-USA, China-Germany. 3. How I find active shippers: I have a private trade data platform showing import/export records by company, product, volume and who they ship to. I filter recent active shipments, then find decision-maker via LinkedIn/WhatsApp/Email - no guessing, only active traders. 4. RFQs: 40-60 qualified China-UAE RFQs/month with real cargo details. 5. Closed before: Yes - FCL/LCL from Ningbo/Wenzhou to Jebel Ali, plus air samples. 6. Example: Last month, UAE importer with 15 shipments/3 months found via records, contacted ops manager, closed 2x40HQ auto parts monthly repeat. Performance based - weekly report on qualified leads, RFQs, closed shipments.
