  Short weekend post. Here's a great article Mike Bellamy, founder of PassageMaker, wrote on "Managing Supplier Payment in China". Enjoy.
  ...
  With the China National Day holiday behind us, the trade show season starts and Mike Bellamy will be in Hong Kong hosting Global Sources' China Sourcing Fair's Buyer Education Conference as well as holding separate seminars on issues of Vendor Coordination and Intellectual Property Protection.
  ...
  This is one of Mike Bellamy's favorite sayings.
  ...
  When Mike Bellamy started PassageMaker, it was a typical trading company.
  ...
  Mike had a relationship with a particular set of factories, and sold their services to customers (like me) at a mark-up, taking ownership of the parts and assuming warranty risk.

  For the past decade Mike Bellamy has been based full-time in Asia. Fed up with the inability of middlemen/ trading companies to control quality and tired of having intellectual property (IP) knocked off, he decided to do something about it by forming PassageMaker in 2002. Mike developed a system to extract the best pricing in China and protect IP without compromising quality and service. PassageMaker's 100% US owned and operated Assembly Center in S. China serves as the client's "black box" where inspection, final assembly and branding takes place behind closed doors. In this fashion, Intellectual Property is physically secured and full quality inspection is conducted before product leaves China. Mike has structured sourcing investments in over 150 production classifications for US and European clients during his time in China. He has an International MBA from the University of South Carolina, which included course work in Harbin and Beijing.
  
  Recognized as expert on China sourcing, Mike is has been a featured presenter for Global Sources Asia Expo HK, Global Sources Dubai, Boat Tech China, Rotary Foundation, US Chamber of Commerce, British Chamber of Commerce and State Bar of California among others. A former Rotary Foundation Ambassadorial Scholar, Mike speaks Chinese and Japanese, and is based full time in Shenzhen China.

  And finally the third part of the presentation from Mike Bellamy of PassageMaker.
  ...
  Here comes the third part of the presentation from Mike Bellamy from PassageMaker.In this part he elaborates more on the problem of the products being copied by suppliers and suggests some solutions.
  
  One of the solutions is making a firewall.
  ...
  Here comes the second part of the presentation from Mike Bellamy from PassageMaker.In this video, he continues with giving examples of un-cautious procurement managers who went to China for one month to find suppliers, shared some product data with some chinese firms and by the time they were coming back, their products was already on eBay!Well, there are only a certain percentage of suppliers which are like that but anyway, it´s good to have a structured framework for sourcing in China
  
  Mike gives some hints about how to develop such a framework.He believes the use of some exclusivity terms in the contracts may help although enforcement of such legal documents can be hard in China.

  When Mike Bellamy started PassageMaker, he was working out of his living room. He had no work force, no infrastructure, just his own willingness to work and work and work until the job was done. He showed up, plain and simple.
  
  PassageMaker made plenty of mistakes in those early days. But Mike kept showing up, over and over, and he learned from his mistakes. He listened when a client (like me) told him what he was doing wrong and how to do it right.
  ...
  Mike and I and the rest of the PassageMaker Team showed up and the success of the PassageMaker Model of Trust & Transparency speaks for itself.
