Start with the goods

A commodity trader’s introduction often produces immediate questions about product grades, delivery terms and who handles documentation. Use the Tap Tap Go profile to describe the commercial role and link suitable public material. Keep confidential pricing, buyer lists and contract negotiations outside a broadly shared page.

Create a document boundary

An introductory specification sheet can help someone decide whether a detailed conversation is worthwhile. Give documents descriptive names and a responsible contact. Neither an attractive profile nor a shared specification establishes product quality, ownership or counterparty credit; those questions require the appropriate separate verification.

Imagine this

A hypothetical scene

A hypothetical coffee trader meets a roaster at an exhibition. The shared profile opens a general sourcing overview and sample specification. The roaster requests a conversation about a particular lot; no trade is completed through the introduction itself.

Make it practical.
