How I can help.

Particularly in the business and office products industry, I can help develop new business opportunities:

    - More products to same market

    - Same products to different international markets

- New channels of distribution

- New sources of products

 

If you want to selecting products and sourcing them for B2B and B2C catalogues 

(When you do not have time - or knowledge of suppliers to do it properly)

 

If you need help with Market positioning and pricing 

(You may be giving away the product - not making the right margin - or overcharging)

 

If you want to find sources of finance to make your business grow.

(Most companies are short of money!)

 

If you need to add or change your sales channel policy.

(Squeezed margins mean less links in the chain!)

 

If you want to move your business to the internet

(It has to be done well!

 

If you need your bsuiess modelled for evaluation of alternatives, raising finance etc

(I not only do the work - I have been developing tools for over 30 years - and am still doing so.

 

If you want help with buying from China

(and setting up joint ventures etc)

1: Incartek

I have 30 years experience in the 'aftermarket' - peripherals, media, printer supplies for use with 'OEM' products.

 

Incartek finds, introduces, evaluates develops, and exploits business opportunities primarily in the office products and computer consumables business. It is affiliated with ICFBA, the International Confederation for Business Advancement, and operates worldwide.

 

My Business Development Service

I maintain a very strong network in the print, peripherals and supplies industry, and am thus well positioned to broker relationships to develop your business - as customers or clients, as suppliers of products or services.

 

The European Operations Support Service

To service the European market there is nothing like having your own office. Incartek provides all of the necessary services. Administrative, logistics and above all senior executives who can maintain and develop contacts with your customers.

 

Web marketing management Service

We do not design websites! However website design is the least of the issues in e-commerce - positioning the site, construction, promotion and marketing are far more important. This is where we come in.

  

The Patents & Design Advisory Service

Incartek has three patents in the design of inkjet cartridges. It can assist you technically in this area.

 

I can take your company out of its comfort zone and help you to perform. Please contact me to discuss your ideas by calling 0845 408 9427, mail daniel@incartek.com or use Skype.

  

2: International Confederation for Business Advancement (ICFBA)

I'm a senior accredited partner with ICFBA,- a large international business group which is involved in many different types of businesses, such as public sector tendering, general finance, project funding, insurance, commercial offshore banking, import/export, international manufacturing services, supply of raw materials, telecoms, international marketing, S.A.P. IT services, and various other businesses.

 

3: Excelsis Enterprises - Putting Enjoyment back into Business

I am also an associate consultant of Excelsis-Enterprises. Excelsis Enterprises is a broad-based international management consultancy and business services organisation serving blue chip companies, SME's and the public sector through long-term relationships. Established over 14 years ago we work in the areas of strategy, sales development, business improvement, and risk and resource management.

 

Whist I specialise in the office products industry - and am building up businesses for several companies in office stationery, office furniture, inkjet and toner products creative inkjet papers and and digital art paper, my understanding of FMCG, B2B and commodity markets - particularly in aftermarket situations enables me to support a wide range of industries and business types

  

4: My Background

I am a well known figure in the European electronic supplies and peripheral products industries. A consultant to it since 1987, I have provided strategic guidance to Kodak, Verbatim, Memorex, EMC2 ICI Imagedata - some projects as an associate of Arthur D. Little.

 

As an export management consultant I set up distribution networks and/or production facilities for several US companies - Jetfill, Toner Plus, PM, ATI, Majestic International as well as computer leasing companies.

 

In late 1996, I was asked by a group of European private labellers to establish a master distribution company in the compatible inkjet cartridge business taking US and European (principally German) technology and quality standards and Chinese manufacturing. Thus the Container Club, which I directed, was born. He established a long term strategic relationship with a Chinese manufacturer, which continued until 2005. The Container Club was Europe's largest master distributor of compatible cartridges.

 

Prior to 1987, I was Director of Product Planning for Unisys, and Director of Planning for the international operations of Memorex. In all, I have over 30 years experience in aftermarket distribution.

 

I attended the City University, London where I studied economics, statistics and MSc management science. I also qualified as a chartered management accountant, and I have a working knowledge of five languages.

 

I am also the author of Brand Freedom Day

 

What motivates me

I love making business happen for people. Giving them the benefit of my experience and connections - connections - connections. Being a 'father figure'. Making some money myself is a by-product - but not a key motivator.

  

5: Family & Faith

I have been happily married to Ruth for 32 years. Ruth is a 'retired' head teacher, who has more to do than she can cope with as she cannot say "No". I have a good home, wife, company and though we have not got our own children - a family to look after. 

 

Ruth is really getting into digital photos now - and travel - we like to buzz off for a week rather regularly! 

 

Ruth and I are evangelical Christians who believe that serving our Lord Jesus who gave Himself for us is risen and who lives to intercede us - is greater than making money.

  

6: My ideal customers...Ideal for Incartek...

My ideal customer is - a company say currently doing £1-£5m business (5-15 employees) which needs to develop into a new market area. Probably entrepreneurially managed - but feeling that is a limitation.

 

Ideal for Innovart...

My ideal customer is a company wishing to make money from high quality inkjet papers.
