My Dubai Friend

I found his card in my company notebook,it's my first month been to this company.I try to add him when I saw his hotmail address shown there,and fortunately he added me also.The first time he was just asked me gave our website to him and said he will contact me if he want,but no information later.And the second time,that's several days later,he start to chat with me when I hi to him,but seems he has forgot me and what I said to him before,so I regarded it as our first talk and chat like friends.There he has work to do so we stop the chatting.And when our third talking,I think it's much better now,we exchange information each other and also mention the business,after I gave our website to him(seems he has forgot that I have gave him before

,he said he didn't need that now,but he asked me to do business with him,I'm so pleased about that

,but then he point out that he is just wanna to do business with "me",not "my company",and he asked me to find factory for him then I get the commision

.I have no idea about that!It's even my beginning of trade!Even I don't familiar about foreign trade process very much!Seems he is a middleman there,require all kinds of things,I'm puzzled now,I don't how to do

But it maybe not suitable for you to be a Soho or an agent for the customer now,even you can help him to find some factories and get the commision from him.
And as I know that the buyer from Dubai will be not so generous,they want high quality products at low prices because of the sharp competition in the market.

You smile make me crazy;You crazy make me laugh!

You are just a beginner of international trading, and I think you not skilled for SOHO work or agent work for the customer. Otherwise, If your boss find that, you will be turned away for your company.
