Hello from China!
Welcome to my channel, For the last 19 years I've been working with clients from all over the world large and small. I like to say, "I take the things that are hard for you to do in your home country and make it easy for you and save you money". I started out as a professional interpreter/translator but times have changed and so have I. Here in China, everyone is an "Interpreter" a "Translator" or a "Sourcing Agent" but those titles really don't help to qualify if that person is right for you.

After 19 years you learn that each and every customer is different. I might receive a call from a customer in the USA that will send me a picture of an item and wants me to find a factory and get the item shipped to FBA. Other customers might just need translation services or help with contacting suppliers due to the language barrier. I'll work with you as your needs change so that I am providing the maximum impact in the areas that are more difficult to do from your home country.

So if you are looking for someone that is honest, reliable and just plain easy to work with, I'm your guy. I can assist with any aspect of the supply chain management from China to your country including logistics, sourcing, factory visits, quality control, inspection or just someone to translate for you at the Canton Fair. Let me help you make the journey into sourcing products from China easy and more profitable.

Services:
1. Sourcing Products: Wholesale markets or OEM with Factories.
2. Quality Control: Your person on the ground in China!
3. Translation/Interpretation: I'll help you get your message across.
4. Transportation/Guide: Come to China and we will visit factories together. I'm one of the few that will actually drive you to where we need to go. It just makes sense.
5. Shipping/Logistics: Air, Sea or Ground. Let me handle this for you.
6. Visiting China: Canton Fair, Global Sources, Factory Visits, etc - Let me put you at ease, call me and I can arrange.

I look forward to hearing from you,
Frankie Gu

• This being our first trip to China to attend the fair, hiring Frankie Gu was definitely worth our time & money. He attended to all our requests, concerns & queries with the most positive attitude and with a friendly disposition.
  
  He communicated with our suppliers. He got quotations for us. He called our Airlines to change our ticket. I lost my cellphone and he called all the stores at the Mall looking for my phone. He managed to find my phone after
  numerous calls on my behalf. Nothing was too difficult for Frankie. He is very professional! I do not hesitate to highly recommend Frankie. Treat him as if you would want to be treated and he will move mountains for you. He
  was one of the highlights of our China trip.

• Frankie was our contact for our trip to Guangzhou.We have tried to do some purchasing in China in the past, but it has been very difficult to set up appointments and meet with the correct companies.
  I spent 2 days traveling around the Guangzhou area with Frankie, and he found many options for all of the parts and suppliers we were looking for, he\'s been great help for us! And our company can save thousands of dollars! I bellieve that we won\'t be able to do this successfully without Frankie! I highly recommend Frankie!

  Frankie was extremely attentive and smart. In a short time he had learned a lot about our business and products. He planned our visits to factories with efficiency. Besides the business, Frankie explained everything about Chinese culture and about the city of Guangzhou.
  We like a lot of Frankie. The next time we go to China certainly will get in touch with InterpreterSky asking the same interpreter.
  Thanks InterpreterSky.
