Learn how to connect raw material suppliers with buyers, and protect your commission.
The Blueprint teaches the process behind physical commodity brokering: finding and qualifying counterparties, making the introduction, and documenting your fee.
You don't buy the cargo, own inventory or finance shipments. The guide walks you through the process in five steps, with practical scripts, checklists and worksheets.
Physical commodities are raw materials that move by ship and rail: iron ore, copper, coal, grain. Mines and exporters sell them. Mills and factories buy them. An introducing broker finds one of each, agrees a fee in writing, and introduces them.
What this is not
Not speculative trading. You don't buy contracts or bet on prices.

What does an introducing broker do?
Finds a genuine supplier and a genuine buyer for a physical commodity, agrees a fee in writing, and introduces them. The broker does not buy, own, ship or finance the cargo.
Do I need to buy or finance cargo?
No. You never buy or ship the cargo.
How much time does it take?
The Blueprint includes a day-by-day plan for your first 30 days. The time required depends on your experience, research, outreach, and the responses you receive.
Do I need existing industry contacts?
No, you can start without them. The scripts show you how to make first contact with companies you don't know yet. Building those relationships is the work, and it takes time.
Is there any fee beyond the price?
The Blueprint and Advanced Blueprint are one-time purchases, with no recurring payments. The Prospector is a separate, optional subscription and is not included in either package.
How do the contracts and the deal tracker help?
The Advanced Blueprint explains the NCNDA and the IMFPA clause by clause, so you understand what you are asking a counterparty to sign and how those provisions can help document and protect a fee arrangement. They are teaching templates to learn from, not documents to sign as they are, and they are not a guarantee that a commission will be paid. The deal tracker keeps your companies, your checks and your fee calculations in one sheet.
Have any agreement reviewed by a lawyer where you live, and screen every counterparty against sanctions lists.
Does buying the guide guarantee a deal or a commission?
No. Deals take time, most conversations don't turn into a trade, and results depend on your effort and the market.
