While Governmental agencies are providing the "organization" for some trade shows, directories, seminars, etc. Most of the people sad to say have not actually dealt in person in other Countries. Have not have to deal with how to handle requests for payola, getting your goods cleared by regional Governmental employees on other Countries even though all paperwork has been "by the book". Using Bitcoin for payments is actually safer for all parties concerned in a transaction. Never the less, B2B using BTC on chain and Lightning will grow faster in other Countries than the USA. The good news is (mark my words) there will be a rush to supply the rebuilding of Ukraine and other Countries. Along with mid-sized dealers of Cat, Deere, Komatsu machinery, parts etc. B2B payments of Bitcoin is quietly already taken place. Requests for these type of goods is already happening. https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_R9SrDSAbTD2oY7r9b5dBvA#/registration
When you least expect opportunities open up you meet someone or a friend, customer, supplier who might ask you about Bitcoin or Lightning or Nostr or “crypto”. Before I would spend time trying to explain everything. Now I just show them my phone that has Ibexpay point of sale. And/or a wallet. Do a small transaction between two wallets, and they “Get it”. Sometimes less is more. I try not to debate about “crypto”. I keep things on the positive things using the Point of sale system on my phone and my websites. Letting them know my some of my customers and suppliers use similar wallets or point of sale systems. I don’t have to worry about charge backs. That I’m moving from twitter to Nostr, because more positive people, and I can learn about things related to Bitcoin. Be patient with people, but don’t let them waste your time. If they just want to debate, That’s not my thing.
To any B2B owner, Importer, exporter, wholesaler, retailer, online re-sellers of clothing, general merchandise, building materials, food stuffs, etc. And your new to Bitcoin, Lightning, Nostr, feel comfortable to ask any questions specific to other merchants in any Country, most of us are starting to price our goods and services in SATS. A lot of us have many long term customers and 99% of them (B2B) have questions on the timing of pricing SATS as a declared price, especially when there's still the reality of the majority of their available working capital in their own fiat, not in big amounts of SATS just ready to send out. What I have experienced is that you Smith need to leave alternate plan B's for them. Here's one idea..... Start slow do a dew small transactions with them, don't push on the larger amounts. I try to also focus on the popular repeat items first. Some of my friends started out as customers and over the years they might also be a supplier to me so keeping the door open and offering to buy some goods from them first is not a bad idea. Speaking for myself, I find it much, much easier to work with developing Countries, they actually are hungrier, cannot afford to go to Bitcoin conferences in tother Countries, but are actually trading goods and services using Lightning. I feel like merchants work well with other merchants and we are probably more open to trying new methods whether it's in shipping, buying, selling, advertising. To me posting bonafide business offerings doesn't mean spam, it means hey we're trying to find another supplier or customer to use Lightning as a payment method with. Richie
