Are you a factory or a trader?
A senior foreign trade practitioner once told me that when your customers ask you whether you are a factory or a trader, you must not say you are a trader, you'd better say you are a factory, or at least say that you have shares in this factory and are a shareholder, otherwise, people will ignore you once they see that you are a trader. This is true, if you say you are a trader, immediately many customers will no longer reply to you.
