Apparel / Textiles & Accessories

According to import and export statistics, in the first half of 2022, China's textile and apparel exports totaled US$156.49 billion, a year-on-year increase of 11.7%. Among them, textile exports were 76.32 billion US dollars, an increase of 11.3% year-on-year; apparel exports were 80.17 billion US dollars, a year-on-year increase of 12%.

Although China's textile and apparel exports are under a lot of pressure, there are also development opportunities. The gradual implementation and effective implementation of a package of domestic policies to stabilize economic growth will inject more positive energy into the entire industrial chain and export trade.

Textile enterprises want to sell their products overseas and open up the international trade market, where should they find a breakthrough? Mr. Mo from Huadu, Guangzhou is engaged in textile products and part-time foreign trade. From zero experience to successfully opening the international trade market, it took less than half a year. Let's take a look at the story of Mr. Mo from Huadu, Guangzhou.

01With the help of intelligent tools, bravely venture into unfamiliar fields

Mr. Mo, from Huadu, Guangzhou, runs a factory that produces and sells textile products for many years, mainly for the domestic market. Occasionally, foreign customers come to the factory to get goods, and the price is higher than the domestic market price.

But as time went by, Mr. Mo found that his peers made more money in export sales, and the profits were also considerable, and he also came up with the idea of doing export sales. However, due to his lack of understanding of foreign trade, he did not dare to enter unfamiliar fields rashly, and the international trade market has not been developed for so many years.

If you want to do good things, you must first sharpen your tools. Under the recommendation of a friend, Mr. Mo learned that Watson & Band can help develop global customers. With a skeptical mood, he conducted a comprehensive inspection of Global Express, gained a deep understanding of the platform's customer acquisition mechanism, and also inquired about the use effects of other users from friends, and finally decided to cooperate with Huacheng Chuangzhi.

After opening a Huacheng Chuangzhi platform account, the first step to learn is how to operate the platform correctly so that the platform can play its biggest role in customer acquisition. At the same time, you should also be familiar with the whole process of receiving foreign trade orders and the matters needing attention in each step. Under the patient guidance of Watson & Band's after-sales customer service, Mr. Mo is full of confidence in developing the foreign trade market.

02Maintain customer relationships and tap market potential

Soon, Mr. Mo found the information of a Bangladeshi customer through Watson & Band. After contacting him, the customer placed a sample order for backpack fabrics. After learning that Mr. Mo received the first sample order, Watson & Band took the initiative to inform the after-sales service of the details that need to be paid attention to when sending samples and the follow-up matters later.

After sending out the samples, Mr. Mo took the initiative to contact the customer and kept in close contact with the customer. Customers are satisfied with the quality of the samples. So, within two months of cooperating with Watson & Band, Mr. Mo successfully received an official order from this Bangladeshi customer with an amount of US$238,500. The first time he opened an order, his joy was beyond words, and he was more confident in developing the international trade market.

Long-term stable customers often bring continuous and stable benefits. If you maintain your new customers attentively, you may develop into long-term cooperative customers, and even bring you new customers. Mr. Mo continued to keep in touch with the Bangladeshi customer according to the method of Watson & Band's after-sales guidance, and successfully established a long-term cooperative relationship with him. In the first year of cooperation, the first customer alone brought Mr. Mo's company a revenue of US$740,000.

After seeing the huge demand for textiles, nylon fabrics and oxford fabrics in the Bangladeshi market, he continued to tap the potential of the Bangladeshi market through Watson & Band and developed other customers. The first Bangladeshi client for cooperation introduced a new client to Mr. Mo.

In addition to receiving orders from Bangladesh, he also used Watson & Band to develop customers in other countries and received more than ten orders of various sizes, thus successfully opening the international trade market.

Since Mr. Mo only works part-time in foreign trade, he is usually busy with the domestic market, so he can only spare part of his time to develop foreign trade business. He was very satisfied with the achievement of such export sales.

Combined with 16 years of precipitation in the foreign trade industry, Huacheng Chuangzhi, with the help of big data analysis technology and AI technology, seizes user needs and pain points, continuously innovates and iterates products and services, and helps domestic small, medium and micro enterprises to realize their "going overseas dreams" and help "going overseas". "Made in China" goes to the world.
