Need an easier, cheaper way to build your business?
Independent forwarders are squeezed between the big multinationals and an industry that keeps consolidating. And if you are not growing, you are dying. For over 23 years, Glnk, Inc. has given independents a far easier, cheaper, faster way to build business: a limited network of vetted forwarders across 100+ countries who commit, in writing, to build business with one another.
The big players keep getting bigger. So how does an independent keep adding new clients and new revenue?
Consolidation is not slowing down. For an independent forwarder, can you think of anything more important right now than finding low cost ways to grow?
Cold calling does not scale
Winning international business by cold outreach means months of unanswered emails to companies with no particular reason to reply. Networking into new business is always the better way to build your business.
A salesperson costs a fortune
Hiring someone to build agency business abroad means a salary, plus all the time and support behind them. Most independents cannot justify it, so the work quietly never gets done.
If you are not growing, you are dying
Every client you do not replace is revenue a larger competitor absorbs. For an independent, growth is not ambition. It is protection.
An outsourced agency sales programme
We deliver this for a fraction of what it would cost you to do it yourself, because the sales and admin cost is spread across the whole network. All it takes from you is reaching out. Our tools and programmes make that easier and safer.
Limited by design
Membership is limited to 2 companies per country, so the business flowing through your market is not shared ten ways. Once a country fills, we close it.
Client Success program
Our team identifies your specializations, niche strengths and target countries, then actively connects you to the right partners so your membership produces a return, not just a certificate.
Face to face, every year
One Annual Meeting every Q1 plus virtual networking year-round. There is still no better way to build a partnership than a handshake. {{ custom_values.campaign_meeting_line }}
Partners who want your business
Every member signs a written commitment to build business with the other members, under a common agency agreement. So you are not chasing strangers. You are reaching out to companies that already want to work with you.
Do not take our word for it. Ask about Sergio, this year's Gold Sponsor, and what his membership did for his business. We will tell you the story on the call.
A seat in {{ custom_values.campaign_country }} is open. That is rare, and it is temporary.

Once a market fills, we do not bump members to make room. The next opening could be years away.
Would you like to see what this could add to your business?
