Spotlight on WTC Benefits: WTCA
Online!
For WTC New Orleans members, the world
is within reach through WTCA Online!
The Internet based web site located at http://www.wtca.org is a
one-stop trade information hub for posting and reviewing trade
opportunities, accessing valuable databases and communicating with
over 300 WTCs and their members worldwide.
The Trade Opportunities Bulletin Board, a primary feature of the
site, enables members to post an unlimited number of trade leads and
search the opportunities posted by other worldwide members -- free of
charge.
Following are success stories from WTCs around the globe that
demonstrate the potential business opportunities for WTC members:
From WTC Hanover -- The Paulmann Company, a private label
distributor of lighting systems, posted an "Offer to Buy" in
search of new suppliers.
It received 50 responses to the posting, and it located a reliable
new business partner.
From WTC El Paso/Juarez -- An "Offer to Buy" was posted
by the WTC on behalf of the Jack Berg Sales Company, a prospective
member interested in selling disposable razors in Latin America.
The company received 10 faxes per day, including a fax from China
that quoted a lower price than was requested.
The company immediately joined the WTC and reports that it is still
receiving responses to the posting.
For further information or to enroll in WTCA On-Line, contact
Natalie Rideau at 529-1601, ext. 226.
