Foreign trade customs data plays a crucial role in international trade. It is not only an essential tool for foreign trade customer development, but also a data support in trade.
Customs data has five main functions:
Analyze target markets and develop customers; Improve customer conversion, detect peer customers, and revitalize existing customers; Understand industry changes, comprehensively understand market supply and demand changes, and adjust export strategies in a timely manner; Understand competitors, grasp the development status of global competitors, and adjust competitive strategies at any time.
1. Analyze the target market and develop customers
Through customs data, it is possible to intuitively understand the number of buyers, transaction times, and import quantities of multiple countries around the world, thereby mastering the market demand and market trends of these countries, and providing key information and valuable references for foreign trade enterprises' market decision-making.
2. Improve customer conversion, detect peer customers, and revitalize existing customers
Foreign trade enterprises can continuously track and analyze the transaction records of their competitors through customs data, and grasp the procurement laws of their purchasers.
For example, how often to make purchases, how many times a year, and how much to purchase each time, in order to recommend suitable products to buyers at the appropriate time, improve the success rate of signing orders, and quickly seize the market of competitors.
Previously, there was an analysis of how we use customs data to develop customers, especially those of our peers. However, while we are tapping into our peers, they are also keeping an eye on our customers.
If you have an old customer who has worked with you multiple times and has not worked with you for a period of time, then customs data can be used to query their nearest purchaser and procurement frequency, and you can know which peer stole your customer.
Wow, there are so many functions for customs data. Do we need to reuse it?
