Dear Jan, How are you? I am so sorry that I was too busy on my former job. Now I just leave and start my own business. I am not sure if this bid still valid, just to do my best. For below request, all I can support here. - product sourcing - contact person for our suppliers - placing orders - quality inspection - sample consolidation - finding a printing company to manufacture our individual brand packaging Are you comfortable speaking english on the phone? Yes. We always talk with the customers by phone before. How long will it take you form your home / office to get to Jinghua Road, Yinzhou Qu, Ningbo Shi? It takes 20 minutes from my home to Jinghua Road. If from my office, will take 30 minutes. Are you able to write us an invoice for your service? Yes. It is ok. With 13 years experience on outdoor lighting business, I believe I can help you on your side. After my graduation from the college, I start work as a sales in my former company, which is a mid-high end outdoor lighting factory. The customers are Trio, SLV, Bauhaus, Lampenwelt etc. in Germany. So I know how to serve for these customers, how to negotiate with the customers and with the people in factory, know how to control the quality, know the inspection process, know how to delivery. I am familier with the suppliers around Zhejiang area. This can help a lot. Hope I can catch this opportunity. Though it is a bid long time ago. Yours sincerely Sally Zhang
