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.

Thanks Yemmy. Get your point. What do you think about the title- Business Developer?

Well if only you are doing more. But for now, i fear your job function is pretty straight forward.

Here is a definition for you

The Business Developer
Business developers perform business development tasks and processes. As such, the business developer is concerned with the analytical preparation of potential growth opportunities for the senior management or board of directors as well as the subsequent support and monitoring of its implementation. Both in the development phase and the implementation phase, the business developer collaborates and integrates the knowledge and feedback from the organization’s specialist functions, for example, R&, Production, Marketing, and Sales to assure that the organization is capable of implementing the growth opportunity successfully.[1] The business developers' tools to address the business development tasks are the Business Model answering "how do we make money" and its analytical backup and roadmap for implementation, the Business Plan..
