What are some tips for foreign trade enterprises to participate in various exhibitions?

1. Notify new and old customers to participate in the exhibition Contact your new and old customers one by one and inform them to come to the exhibition. Can improve the relationship with customers, show their strength, can also introduce their new products to new and old customers.

2. Contact with strange customers Before each exhibition, we need to find out our unknown potential customers three to four months in advance and invite them to participate in the exhibition. Due to the distrust of strangers, we invite each other to participate in the exhibition three or four months in advance. During this period, we can pass on our product advantages, company advantages, help customers solve problems, etc., so that customers can have initial trust in you, and then invite them to participate in the exhibition, which can further promote the transaction.

3. Understand the advantages of the exhibition and the participation of its peers.
In general, on the exhibition website, we can know what the exhibitors of the exhibition are. We can know about our peers’ analysis of the prices, characteristics and best-selling products of their peers. Then compare their own products and find out their own advantages so as to show them to the participating customers.

4. Prepare all kinds of articles for exhibition For example: promotion of color pages, business cards, samples, quotations, product catalogues and introductions, photographing equipment, notebook computers, various stationery supplies (we usually bring notebooks, pens, staplers, staple needles, adhesive tapes), clearing supplies, food, small gifts, charging treasure, etc.

5. Decoration of Booth Booth is equivalent to one’s own frontispiece, with personalized color layout, which can make customers have a strong sense of vision and quickly attract customers’ attention.

6. Arrangement of Exhibitors On important occasions, we must train the staff, such as etiquette, clothing collocation, product-related professional knowledge, service and so on. Details determine success or failure. (In this respect, not many companies can do it. But it’s important! )

Second: Details to Pay Attention to at the Exhibition

1. Welcome customers with a smile Every customer who meets for the first time should be greeted with a smiling face so that the customer feels valued.

2. Don’t sit and chat Even if there are no guests coming, don’t let everyone sit together and chat. It gives the impression that the company is unprofessional and imprecise.

3. Ask the customer to sit down and communicate When a guest lingers on the edge of his booth, he must warmly invite the guest to come in and sit down and give them dessert so that the customer can have a pleasant mood.

4. Don’t look at people by their appearance.
Any customer who comes to the booth should be warmly received. Don’t refuse to receive or respond to customers because of their clothes.

5. Listen to the customer’s ideas If the guest is willing to sit down, it means that he is interested in your products. We should listen to the customer’s ideas more and not just sell the products by ourselves. To stand in the customer’s point of view, to help customers solve his problems.

6. Record the needs of different customers There are many guests coming and going in the booth. We can’t use our brains to record all the communication with the customers. Therefore, we need to record the conversation for each customer who has communication, so as to follow up after the exhibition.

7. Obtain customer contact information The goal of participating in the booth is to obtain customer information and orders. Therefore, we should remember to ask all customers for contact information. You can call, email, exchange business cards, and add chat tools such as WeChat and whatsapp.

8. Turn around the booths of peers In the exhibition, it is not only in your own booth. When you are free, you can also look around the booth of your peers and see that guests are paying attention to the booth of your peers. You can also follow the customers and try to invite them to your booth to learn about it.

9. Stay Close to Customers Key customers must make up their minds about their products, so we must keep our customers close. Show your professionalism to the customer, attach importance to him, and let the customer see your sincerity of cooperation. Even if he doesn’t buy it before returning home, he will still have a good impression on you and will follow it more later.

10. Potential Customers Potential customers may not place orders in such a hurry, perhaps just to understand the market situation, or just to look for new products. Perhaps it is to reserve suppliers. When we meet potential customers, we can ask them about the specific products they purchase, purchase time, product delivery, product usage, etc. Record it for tracking after the exhibition. If your factory is not far from the exhibition, you can also invite them to visit your factory so that customers can trust your enterprise more.

We believe that there is no “standard” template in this world. Most of the time, it is good for us to absorb some essence from others’ suggestions and experiences. Finally, I wish you all the best in all kinds of exhibitions and full of goods.

    Foreign Trade Sharing-How Foreign Traders Work Efficiently Let’s talk about the time allocation in general, starting with a foreign trade salesman entering the office in the morning (making tea and tidying up the table) First, open the web page to check the exchange rate situation, generally referring to BOC or the central bank. As a foreign trade salesman, it is necessary to know the trend of exchange rate in time. In addition, I usually have to look at the price trend of domestic raw materials. Generally, it can be completed in ten minutes at most. Second, open the mail client and then open the customer tracking table to see which customers have not contacted for some time.

The advantages of doing this are: 1) keep in touch with the customer who has not made a deal so that he will always remember you. This is especially important when the customer is ready…

  • Foreign Traders Want to Win Customers? We’ll talk about positioning first

    I don’t know how many friends know about positioning. Positioning is a very important link in foreign trade.

  • China’s Foreign Trade Enterprises Struggle Against the Current

    At present, the global economic growth is slowing down and external uncertainties are increasing. The latest World Economic Outlook Report released by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) lowered the growth rate of the world economy in 2019 to 3%, down 0.2 percentage points from the forecast in July this year. Under this background, many foreign trade enterprises are facing greater export pressure. China’s foreign trade enterprises have been exploring countermeasures from the perspective of their respective industries’ development. The global economic situation has a greater impact on exports. “Seven or eight years ago, our export of plush toys to the South American market was quite good, but in the past two years, the South American market economy fluctuated greatly, and our export volume fell by about 40%.” Yu Yun, business manager of Nanjing Dadong Toys Co., Ltd., said in an interview with the International Business News that the company’s export market is mainly in Europe at present, but the purchasing intention of European customers is not very strong due to the relatively severe global economic situation. “On the one hand,…

  • In foreign trade, I can’t escape these circles after all

    In programming, a program that cannot be terminated by its own control is called a dead loop. English is called endless loop, and there is a movie called looper. The Chinese name “The Ring Messenger” is wonderful. You can look for it. Getting into this cycle is really painful. There are also a large number of such cycles in foreign trade. Of course, some of these cycles may be caused by the parties deceiving themselves and others. To give a few examples: Recruitment and retention mechanism Many companies are just like hotels. People come and go. They are all passers-by. There is a saying called “Iron Battalion and Running Troops”. It is normal for people to come and go, but it is not normal for people to come and go for a long time. It is not normal for an impetuous industry and an impetuous region. There is no need to do a mechanism to retain people if there are fewer people. Without a mechanism to retain people, people cannot be retained!Infinite cycle. It is strange that even birds know…

To tell the truth here, I know that I will offend many people because I will expose the scars of many people. Most people are more ostrich-minded and unwilling to face it.

  • What if the foreign trade bill of lading is lost? How to solve and deal with it?

    A bill of lading is a document that proves that the contract of carriage of goods by sea and the goods have been received or loaded by the carrier, as well as the carrier’s proof to deliver the goods. Since goods can only be extracted by bill of lading, bill of lading is of great significance in international trade, especially under FOB and CFR conditions, and is considered as the representative and symbol of goods. However, because only one set of bills of lading can be issued for one bill of lading, and the bills of lading are negotiable documents at the same time, the loss of the bills of lading will have a great impact on the development of foreign trade business, which may lead to the seller unable to settle the foreign exchange and the buyer unable to take delivery of the goods. With the continuous growth of China’s import and export trade, this kind of loss has occurred frequently in foreign trade companies recently. How should we deal with the loss of the bill of lading?
