General

I have just entered the foreign trade industry and don't understand many things. How can I avoid stepping on thunder and grow quickly?

At the beginning, it is necessary to understand the products and be familiar with the complete foreign trade process. When it comes to issues involving orders and funds, it is necessary to communicate more and confirm carefully to avoid losses.

Here are some common errors:

1. Excessive commitment

When customers make inquiries, they may put forward various requirements for the product, but without confirming with the factory or leaders, they agree. However, upon receiving the order, the factory is unable to produce the corresponding product. So the customer's questions need to be confirmed before they can be answered to avoid dishonesty.

2. Price

When quoting, do not make mistakes, calculate repeatedly, remember the formula, and reserve the fluctuation space of the price. Carefully check if the cost and logistics related miscellaneous expenses are clearly stated. Price deadline to prevent the increase in raw material, logistics, and labor costs.

3. Delivery without bill of lading

Refers to the act of the carrier, its agent (freight forwarder), port authority, or warehouse manager releasing the goods with a letter of guarantee, as stated on the bill of lading, by the consignee or notifier with a copy of the bill of lading or a copy of the bill of lading, without retrieving the original bill of lading. To avoid this situation, all remaining payments must be paid before shipment.

4. Delivery time

To avoid delivery time, if the goods are not yet fully prepared, an additional 3-7 days can be reserved based on production volume. Delivery time can be set according to the factory's production volume to avoid failure to deliver. If there is no shipment, one customer will be lost and there will be a breach of contract. To grow rapidly on the path of foreign trade entrepreneurship, one must constantly learn, search for foreign trade related forums and accounts, absorb knowledge, plan every step well, and successfully export.
