In this live session, Steve addresses the confusion he's been hearing about tariffs on Chinese imports, walking through the basics of who pays, when, and what sellers can actually control.
He covers the US-China trade standoff at the time, why chasing the politics doesn't help your business, and practical supplier moves like asking factories to hold extra raw materials or backstock so orders move faster when tariffs hit.
Useful for any seller sourcing from China, Vietnam, or elsewhere in Asia and trying to plan around trade uncertainty instead of reacting to headlines.
