📢 REKAMAN MINI COURSE BERANI EXPORT IMPORT - 28 AGUSTUS 2026
Main summary
Key takeaways
Business-focused summary (Import–Export + Digital Marketing Mentoring: “Berani Export Import”)
Core pitch & objective
- Train Indonesian beginners to become independent importer-exporters (not dependent on “father/mother” brokers/agents).
- Use digital marketing + online sourcing to find buyers and suppliers and build brands.
- Emphasis: small starts are enough (even 1 box / 1 kg), with funding as low as cellphone + internet package.
Frameworks / processes / playbooks mentioned
1) The “3 keys” to success (repeated)
-
Knowledge + mentor Start with guidance to avoid confusion about what to sell and where to sell.
-
Brave in process No instant riches; execution typically takes 6–12 months to secure first export orders, then becomes repeatable.
-
Copy the steps / follow SOP + discuss when stuck Avoid “wrong moves” by following operating procedures and asking for help when needed.
2) Mentoring program structure (weekly operational rhythm)
- Weekly online workshops with recurring themes.
- Content flow described across weeks/months:
- Product research
- Supplier sourcing (chat & negotiation)
- Payment & shipping steps
- Selling channels (explicitly mentions Google Ads first, then Facebook/IG/TikTok/Shopee/Tokopedia are implied)
- Private mentoring via WhatsApp/Telegram plus calls, with ongoing support until trainees can operate independently.
3) Product + market selection logic (export)
- Export what the destination country actually imports, not what the exporter wants.
- Use export product research tools/sites for requirements and licensing (mentioned: OSC / insw.co.id for licensing/requirements).
4) Supplier sourcing SOP (Alibaba)
Supplier vetting filters (“3 checks”):
- Verified supplier + business history of minimum 2 years
- Trade Assurance / escrow (payment is held in the platform system—no personal account transfers)
- Fast response time (target: maximum 1 hour)
5) Advertising playbook (lead generation before scaling export)
- Google Ads training + Facebook targeting
- Google Ads:
- Bid on intent keywords (example: searching “rent a car in Jakarta” → ad appears).
- Cost heuristic:
- Starting around Rp 10,000/day (later scales).
- Facebook Ads “sniper” approach:
- Demographic targeting (age, city/radius around the shop)
- Behavior targeting (example: targeting “rich people” categories and purchase-trigger behaviors)
- Example retargeting hook:
- “Birth month promotions” (used as targeting logic)
6) Import/export execution steps (operational chain)
High-level flow:
- Research product
- Identify factories/warehouses
- Chat/quote
- Place order/pay
- Ship to Indonesia ports
- Customs clearance
- Deliver to the buyer/storefront
They also describe multiple port-city routes within Indonesia, often consolidated by a forwarder.

Practical actionable recommendations extracted
Start small, go independent
- Start with small shipments (1 box / 1 kg).
- Avoid expensive capacity early; start low-value to reduce licensing complexity (mentioned: under Rp 1 million needs fewer permits).
Don’t pay brokers blindly
- For Alibaba sourcing:
- Use verified suppliers
- Use Trade Assurance / escrow
- Avoid personal transfers
- For forwarders:
- Ensure it’s not just a broker (verify warehouse/office reality in Indonesia & China)
- Compare at least 3 forwarders
- Negotiate with the owner, not only marketing staff
- Minimum forwarder experience cited: 10 years
Seller-side readiness
- Before importing:
- “Throw away / discard unsellable ideas” (don’t only “buy cheap”; plan selling first).
- Learn Google/Facebook ad basics and target the right audiences.
Export target countries
- Repeatedly listed: Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam
Build your own brand (ODM/OEM logic)
- ODM: change to your name/brand on the product.
- OEM/OM service: change materials/colors; relabel/brand.
- Brand goal: not necessarily own factories early—production can remain with China experts.
Investing/markets (high-level only)
- The content is primarily an education/mentoring pitch, not a market/investment strategy.
- It references “data” about export value opportunities (China → Indonesia) at a high level, but emphasizes execution: sourcing, shipping, selling, branding.
