Direct Sourcing Excellence

We don't just find suppliers; we build your supply chain. Our VAs act as your boots-on-the-ground, ensuring your products arrive on time and under budget.

Supplier Vetting

Verifying business licenses, checking factory certifications (ISO/CE), auditing trade history, and ensuring you aren't dealing with a middleman posing as a factory.

Price Negotiation

Leveraging volume for lower unit costs, negotiating better payment terms (Net-30/60), and driving down MOQs for new product launches.

Sample Management

Ordering and consolidating samples from multiple factories to save on international shipping, followed by detailed photographic review and comparison reports.

Logistics Coordination

Communicating with freight forwarders, handling customs documentation, HTS code classification, and tracking shipments from sea/air to your warehouse.

Quality Control Prep

Booking 3rd-party inspections (V-Trust, QIMA), defining defect checklists, and managing "Red-Tag" disputes for faulty inventory units.

Private Label Branding

Managing packaging design requirements, insert card printing, GS1 barcode application, and ensuring the factory follows your branding guides perfectly.

The Sagedoer Advantage in Global Trade

E-commerce sellers fail because they spend all their time fighting with factories. We provide a managed buffer between you and the supply chain.

Time Zone Mastery

You don't need to stay up until 2 AM to talk to factories in China or Vietnam. Our VAs work the night shifts for you, delivering a "Wake-Up Report" with all your sourcing updates ready by morning.

Zero Risk Oversight

Every factory quote and contract is audited by your Free dedicated Sagedoer Project Manager. We ensure Trade Assurance is used and terms protect your capital—at no extra charge.

Direct ROI Sourcing

Freelance marketplaces charge up to 40% in hidden fees. With Sagedoer, you pay strictly for output. The money you save in product costs usually pays for the VA's entire monthly fee within the first order.

Wholesale FAQs

Which sourcing platforms do you use?
Our VAs are proficient in Alibaba, 1688 (for better Chinese pricing), Global Sources, Made-in-China, and Thomasnet for domestic US sourcing. We also use Amazon product research tools like Helium 10 and Jungle Scout to verify demand before we source.
How do you verify if a factory is legit?
We perform a multi-step audit. We check the business registration date, verify onsite photos/videos, check for Trade Assurance status, and look for specific industry certifications (CE, FDA, ISO). Your Project Manager also runs a secondary background check on the factory’s trade export history.
Do you handle high-volume freight shipping?
Yes. Our VAs coordinate with freight forwarders for FCL (Full Container Load) or LCL (Less than Container Load) sea shipping, handle DDP/FOB terms communication, and ensure the factory prepares Amazon FBA-compliant master cartons and labels.
What exactly does the Project Manager do?
The PM is your quality control and logistics strategist. They audit factory quotes to ensure you aren't being overcharged, check 3rd party inspection reports for red flags, manage the VA's task schedule, and act as your single point of contact. This entire layer of management is free.
