Some questions you've asked
We've been live for about two weeks and are pleased that so many visitors have come our way so far.
There are a few interesting questions that you've asked. We'd rather be open and transparent, so here are our answers:
Q: How do we know you are in the USA and not some Asian firm masquerading as a USA site?
Great question.
We have a US EIN (for taxes), a USA address (Park City, Utah), and a USA telephone number. This likely won't convince many, though. Technical proof is more definitive: Three common methods are 1) You can use an IP geolocation lookup, 2) an EV SSL certificate, or 3) a WHOIS domain record. There are other ways, too, but this should do it for a simple query.
Q: Are you buying products from Alibaba and shipping them to the US?
We are not.
We do work with Asian suppliers because they have some great products, and you can't easily match their cost advantage. So, do we have a few Chinese suppliers? A firm yes. Korean? Yes. The Koreans are beauty industry innovators and early tech adopters. Japanese? Yes. European? Yes. South American, Yes.
Many companies try to shield their supply chain locations, preferring to be USA-based when very little of the work is done here. That works for them, and perception matters. We are offering great value products on AeonEx. That’s an imperative for us – the best prices in the US. This holds for premium products, too. However, great value products can't be provided without cost-competitive manufacturing.
Q: Do you have American suppliers or distributors working with you?
Yes, of course we do. Quite a number of them since we're a USA-based firm. Manufacturers treat us as a sales channel, while distributors treat us like an additional US sales team.
Q: When will you sell outside of the US?
We already sell in Canada. But to answer the question: not in 2025 and likely not in 2026 either. We're a young company, and the US is more than big enough for the near term. We have had a number of inquiries from potential international partners who want to take the AeonEx concept to other regions. That can work, but you'll need resources for the journey. email us :-)
Q: Do you have affiliate and referral programs?
Not yet, but they will be in place by the end of August. Partners are very important to us, and we'll set the program up so that our promotors can make tens of thousands of dollars. Come back later.
Q: Do you have a direct sales team in the US?
Yes. When they originate or close a sale they get paid a generous commission like any sales team.
