Sounds counterintuitive but it's not like they can't do it without me. It'll just be more difficult because they don't have the connections or knowledge yet.Basically I work in B2B and one of my customers is another importer such as myself. We import different products from different regions which is why we are able to sell to them. They specialize in a differenct product category and what we sell to them is more of their secondary thing. So they import their main items and buy the secondary items off other wholesalers. But of course everyone wants to grow and naturally look up cut out the middleman...So they have been asking me lately to share transportation services or recommend them one to help it be financially feasible for them. Where we live, on a snl volume scale it's very difficult to find companies that make it work financially. But of course we know the ones that do. But if I share it with him he could easily just cut us out as his volume is large on its own. He is our biggest customer by revenue. And with even lower prices by going direct, he might even buy more than we could.So should I help them or not? It feels like a dick move but it also feels like it's "just business". But it's not like I'm not letting them use some proprietary technology I control, it's literally withholding trade partner information that he could find on his own. Not sure how he hasn't yet tbh.So yeah, it's basically only a matter of time I guess until we get cut out. see hubwealthy.com/wealthy
