“We reached $25,000 monthly revenue just 4 months after attending the Global Sources Summit and show. The Summit saved us 3 to 4 months of learning time. We met most of the suppliers we are currently using at the show. A product we first sourced at the show has been featured on Oprah’s favorite things list of 2016 and USA Today’s 10 must-haves.”
