What Name Would You Call A Job Like This? by Nobody: 11:36am On Jan 24, 2013 |
Morning House, What name/title would best fit a job that helps people in diaspora who want to bring in stuff(phones, computers, vitamins, general merchandise) to Nigeria and dispose of them quickly, with good returns? Been doing it for a while now and looking to build more structure for expansion to help more people. Trusting you guys for befitting answers that wouldn't be too specialized and limiting, yet catchy. Tks. Mods pls help if I'm not in the right section, or better still, Front Page |

Well i don't know about vitamins But if your job is to sell it for them and also make a return for yourself then you are more of an importer or like our people would say businessman/woman but a profit sharing or (on your percentage) basis. |

Thanks yemmy The names fine, but I'm thinking if it wld suffice for a business card, or at a networking event: Hello, wat do you do for a living? I am a........? Without having to describe wat I do in detail...Get where I'm coming from? |

Truth is many people make their living as importers. So i don't think there is anything wrong with 'Importer' on your business card. In fact many people are just that. When you talk with people casually in a networking event you'd start by calling yourself a businessman/woman. But when talks go beyond the 2-3 lines of formal introduction and tend to go longer, you can then explain you are an importer. |
