Please understand that Broker Certification, working in the Import/Export Broker Industry and owning your own business is not for everyone. In order to assure that each Applicant is potentially a "Good Fit" with GSW and our Existing Member Brokers we ask that you:

1. Read and thoroughly review all the material available at the GSW Information Accreditation Center.
2. Write down questions or highlight areas that you need additional information, clarification or need to cover.
3. Review the GSW Privacy Policy to understand how any information that you submit to us is handled.
4. Complete the New Broker Application form. Please be sure to  include your current contact information and the time that you will be available for an Information Specialist to call and answer your questions.

Travel is not necessary. Once you have been accepted into Training, a Private Tutor is assigned to you. Instruction is conducted by telephone, Internet and mail and takes you through each Training Segment including all Lectures, Classes, Reviews and Exams.

All sessions are by appointment that you schedule to fit your own individual needs. This flexibility allows you to learn at your own pace and to schedule your instruction for when you are available -- particularly important when you're working at your current employment or have other obligations.

Yes, Global Services Worldwide controls large groups of constantly changing Inventory in a multitude of consumer and industrial products, literally anything and everything from A to Z.

Categorized for easy Broker access on the GSW Inventory Website, each Product is illustrated and includes the complete Product Information Disclosure supplied by the Manufacturer. Product Information Disclosures include a complete description, technical information & specifications and warranty information, the quantity available and any special terms or incentives. Click HERE to view a sample Product Information Disclosure.

GSW Products are just a fraction of the products and services available. Every GSW Certified IMEX Trade Broker represents their own clients and lists their products and services accordingly in the GSW Worldwide Product Locator (GSWPL™) and Listing service. All listed products are available for your company to market free without any cost or obligation.

For example, as a Certified Broker you log on to the GSW Inventory Website, locate a product that your customer has request or that you want to market. Download the Product Information Disclosure, copy it onto your own Company Letterhead, mark the price up, address and personalize and then mail, fax or e-mail your customized sales letter to your clients.

Do I have to buy or invest in any way in inventory?

No. We do not recommend that you ever buy inventory unless it is for your own personal use. GSW Certified IMEX Trade Brokers and qualified GSW employees are entitled to purchase GSW Inventory at cost plus shipping for their own family or personal use.

As a GSW Certified IMEX Trade Broker, part of your training and actual job description is to locate, control and represent inventory, products and services. Of course, one of the best ways to control inventory is to own it directly. As a GSW Certified IMEX Trade Broker, you always have direct access to GSW's huge funding and buying power. Just tell us what inventory you've located and we'll make an offer. If your buyer takes our offer we'll write them a check, place the products into inventory, generate a Product Information Disclosure (PID) and load it to the GSW Inventory Website. We'll also send a PID by e-mail or fax to every GSW Broker so they can begin to market this product to their customers. With this Shared Equity Contract venture, the moment the product sells, we split the profits, 50/50, with you. To make it simple, you find the product, we put up the cash, warehouse the merchandise, ship the order, collect the funds and then split the profits with you.

Once I become a GSW Certified IMEX Trade Broker will I be able to open my own Import/Export Business?

Will GSW assist me in  opening my own business?

Actually opening and operating your own Import/Export Business is a key requirement necessary to become a GSW Certified IMEX Trade Broker. From your very first week of Instruction you, with the guidance of your Tutor will:

  1. Create Your Business Entity
  2. Design Your Business Structure
  3. Obtain Your local Business License
  4. Set-up Your Home Office
  5. Establish a Business Bank Account

As your Instruction continues, through every phase of training you will not only learn how to run your own business, you will be running your own business. You will be speaking and working with real clients, executing real transactions, trading in real dollars. Every part of your Training and Instruction helps you to establish and promote your business.

And best of all, you keep it all -- every relationship you establish, every client you add to your database, every dollar you earn, every contact you make, even during training, is yours to keep.

Simply stated, you learn by doing with "hands on" training and instruction from your own private tutor.
