入行外贸三年,为么有人月入十万,而你月薪3000?
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">给<span style="color: black;">大众</span>讲一个故事。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="color: black;">亦</span>不是故事,而是亲身经历,或许有<span style="color: black;">有些</span><span style="color: black;">表率</span>性吧。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="color: black;">近期</span>我在询价一款<span style="color: black;">制品</span>,连续12天,才把价格催到。<span style="color: black;">然则</span>这个价格呢,是同行的两倍。<span style="color: black;">况且</span>一模<span style="color: black;">同样</span>的<span style="color: black;">制品</span>,我问<span style="color: black;">她们</span><span style="color: black;">机构</span>的内贸<span style="color: black;">分部</span>询价,<span style="color: black;">亦</span><span style="color: black;">便是</span>1688,得到的价格是26块人民币。<span style="color: black;">经过</span>阿里国际站,问<span style="color: black;">她们</span>外贸<span style="color: black;">分部</span>询价,得到的价格是8.5美元。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">请<span style="color: black;">重视</span>,做外贸的业务员,居然不报FOB,还在我<span style="color: black;">尤其</span><span style="color: black;">需求</span>报FOB价格的时候,给我一个EXW价格,何用?</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">有的时候我在感慨,<span style="color: black;">便是</span>个人能力的差异,真的是天差地别。哪怕是思维的差异,<span style="color: black;">亦</span>是遥远的距离。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">询价呢,本身<span style="color: black;">便是</span>很自然的几句话。我把我的原邮件贴出来吧,<span style="color: black;">触及</span>到<span style="color: black;">制品</span>和<span style="color: black;">机构</span>信息的隐去,<span style="color: black;">大众</span>姑且看一下。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">Dear Kerry,</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">My name is Timothy. I’m in charge of an importing company in the US.</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">I’m looking for a xxx which matched your Item No. aaa via Alibaba. Could you send us the offer sheet with FOB price and MOQ?</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">We are about to use our logo and packaging designing. And the items will be delivered to Canada by sea.</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">Regards,</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">Timothy G.</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">这邮件是我写的,<span style="color: black;">然则</span>用了美国合伙人的名字和邮箱。<span style="color: black;">由于</span>我想的是,<span style="color: black;">亦</span>许这个供应商<span style="color: black;">晓得</span>我,没法以我自己的名义询价和沟通,就用老美的好<span style="color: black;">有些</span>。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="color: black;">况且</span>,这不是虚拟的<span style="color: black;">名人</span>,人是<span style="color: black;">能够</span>在facebook和linkedin查到的,<span style="color: black;">机构</span>网站<span style="color: black;">亦</span>是真实存在的,对方不会<span style="color: black;">由于</span>找不到人,<span style="color: black;">可疑</span>是同行套价格什么的。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">结果呢,这个Kerry或许是主管,毫无<span style="color: black;">信息</span>,再我等到第三天<span style="color: black;">无</span>回音的时候,跟进了邮件,对方<span style="color: black;">亦</span><span style="color: black;">无</span>任何回复,直接一个转发,转发到叫Mia的邮箱,抄送我,内容上,<span style="color: black;">无</span>写一个字。我一看邮箱后缀,好吧,应该是他的同事,<span style="color: black;">由于</span>邮箱后缀<span style="color: black;">同样</span>。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">这个Mia呢,<span style="color: black;">一样</span>在我等回复的时候,<span style="color: black;">无</span>任何<span style="color: black;">信息</span>。那我继续写一封邮件给Mia,询问,是不是她在负责这个项目?能<span style="color: black;">不可</span>给我报价?</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">又等了两天,到第五天的时候,Mia小姐给我回复了。一上来<span style="color: black;">便是</span>很烂的一大堆自我介绍,<span style="color: black;">基本</span>没兴趣看,而怯语法、用词、段落,漏洞百出。等我跳过四五段以后,<span style="color: black;">最终</span>想<span style="color: black;">瞧瞧</span>价格,结果<span style="color: black;">无</span>价格,反而是十几个问题。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="color: black;">例如</span>说,你们是什么样的<span style="color: black;">机构</span>?是进口商还是零售商?你们做哪块市场?你们的年采购量大约是多少?你们能接受什么样的付款方式?等等等等,一大堆的十万个<span style="color: black;">为何</span>,<span style="color: black;">大众</span>是不是觉得很眼熟?《外贸<span style="color: black;">能手</span>2》这本书里看到过?对啊,我都说了又说,强调又强调,还是有<span style="color: black;">非常多</span>业务员,<span style="color: black;">爱好</span>自以为是拍脑袋谈判,<span style="color: black;">爱好</span>这种客户最反感的查户口方式谈判,我又能说什么?</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">好,我耐心一点,一条一条回复你的问题。可回复过后,又没下文了。等到<span style="color: black;">次日</span>下午四点半多一点,<span style="color: black;">最终</span>收到Mia的邮件。<span style="color: black;">暗示</span>谢谢我的回复,<span style="color: black;">而后</span>发了两张<span style="color: black;">照片</span>,问我,是不是<span style="color: black;">必须</span>这款<span style="color: black;">制品</span>的价格?</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">我顿时热泪盈眶,整整等了六天时间,<span style="color: black;">最终</span><span style="color: black;">能够</span>入正题了啊。我邮件秒回,是的,<span style="color: black;">便是</span>这个<span style="color: black;">制品</span>,请给我报价,并<span style="color: black;">通知</span>MOQ。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">结果,Mia又消失了。我后来才<span style="color: black;">晓得</span>,工厂四点半下班,<span style="color: black;">因此</span>哪怕我秒回,<span style="color: black;">然则</span>对方下班了,要<span style="color: black;">次日</span>回复我了。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">第七天,还行,Mia起码回我了,说的是,起订量是1000pcs,能否接受?有<span style="color: black;">那些</span>东西要改?有<span style="color: black;">无</span><span style="color: black;">尤其</span>的<span style="color: black;">需求</span>?<span style="color: black;">针对</span>logo和包装,能否发她看一下?</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">我顿时有点晕。<span style="color: black;">朋友</span>,我要先<span style="color: black;">晓得</span>你的价格啊,我要<span style="color: black;">按照</span>价格来判断,来做我这边的<span style="color: black;">营销</span><span style="color: black;">方法</span>,<span style="color: black;">而后</span>再反推采购计划的。<span style="color: black;">况且</span>我样品都没看到,怎么让设计师针对性做logo和包装?怎么<span style="color: black;">晓得</span>有<span style="color: black;">无</span>细节要改?哦不,我都糊涂了,价格都没拿到,看什么样品?起码要<span style="color: black;">晓得</span>价位。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">我一看Mia回复我的时间,又是下午四点半,我顿时有点心凉,担心今天会不会又没人了。我邮件写过去,<span style="color: black;">通知</span>她,起订量没问题,<span style="color: black;">详细</span>的<span style="color: black;">状况</span>,要<span style="color: black;">按照</span>项目经理和设计师<span style="color: black;">科研</span>过样品,再决定下一步怎么做。<span style="color: black;">因此</span>如今,仅仅<span style="color: black;">按照</span>你们现有<span style="color: black;">制品</span>报价,不<span style="color: black;">必须</span>任何改动,现有包装方式就<span style="color: black;">能够</span>。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">果然,她下班了,我又要等到下一天。到了第八天,<span style="color: black;">无</span>回复。我写了邮件,内容<span style="color: black;">便是</span>Re-send,<span style="color: black;">亦</span><span style="color: black;">无</span><span style="color: black;">信息</span>。第九天,依然<span style="color: black;">无</span>回复。到第十天,我真的拿起<span style="color: black;">tel</span>要打过去的时候,Mia的邮件姗姗来迟。正文还是一大段乱七八糟的英文,<span style="color: black;">然则</span>起码我<span style="color: black;">发掘</span>了一个核心句子,写的是:Please check our offer sheet in attachment.</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">哎呦,这句话居然连语法错误都<span style="color: black;">无</span>,难得难得。当我点开附件的时候,是一个pdf文件,顿时又让我觉得很无力。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="color: black;">第1</span>,文件是excel<span style="color: black;">或</span>word生成的,<span style="color: black;">然则</span>显然<span style="color: black;">无</span>进行页面设置。导成pdf的时候,横向纵向<span style="color: black;">无</span><span style="color: black;">调节</span>,结果就<span style="color: black;">仅有</span>半个<span style="color: black;">乃至</span>大半个原表格,后面关键的价格方面的信息就<span style="color: black;">无</span>了。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">第二,她给我报了EXW价格。<span style="color: black;">大众</span>都<span style="color: black;">晓得</span>,一个小的日用品,不是原材料和大宗设备,EXW价格有何<span style="color: black;">道理</span>?哪怕你<span style="color: black;">此刻</span>给我报5美元,<span style="color: black;">然则</span>我<span style="color: black;">基本</span>不<span style="color: black;">晓得</span>,你到时要<span style="color: black;">增多</span>什么<span style="color: black;">花费</span>,什么<span style="color: black;">花费</span>,什么<span style="color: black;">花费</span>,<span style="color: black;">最后</span>价格又会变成多少,心里是没底的,<span style="color: black;">怎样</span>确认订单呢?</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">第三,付款方式的问题,还是比较苛刻。不<span style="color: black;">晓得</span><span style="color: black;">她们</span>是异想天开呢,还是学过我的课程,学艺不精,<span style="color: black;">然则</span>脑洞大开。<span style="color: black;">她们</span>付款方式,居然设置了梯度付款,<span style="color: black;">需求</span>5万美金以下的订单,定金70%,余款发货前付清;5万到10万美金的订单,定金50%,余款发货前付清;10万美金以上的订单,定金30%,余款发货前付清。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">第四,第五,第六,我懒得一一写了,反正<span style="color: black;">便是</span>问题一大堆。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">我回复邮件过去,<span style="color: black;">通知</span>她,文件里<span style="color: black;">无</span>价格,是不是生成pdf的时候,页面<span style="color: black;">无</span>设置好?麻烦重新发我一下。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">对方估计又下班了,<span style="color: black;">次日</span>,<span style="color: black;">亦</span><span style="color: black;">便是</span>总共第十一天的时候,Mia的回复来了。<span style="color: black;">然则</span>报价单居然<span style="color: black;">无</span>重新发给我,只是邮件里写了几句,抱歉,在做文件的时候<span style="color: black;">无</span><span style="color: black;">重视</span>,<span style="color: black;">咱们</span>的FOB价格是8.5美金。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">我<span style="color: black;">已然</span>到了抓狂边缘,你就<span style="color: black;">不可</span>重新发一遍报价单啊?你给我写出来8.5美金,<span style="color: black;">然则</span>你原来的报价单,生成不完整,<span style="color: black;">不仅</span>是价格<span style="color: black;">无</span>,前面装箱资料这些,都被截掉了,都<span style="color: black;">无</span>啊。<span style="color: black;">况且</span>这个价格,<span style="color: black;">按照</span>我的经验,显然是有问题的,贵得离谱。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">我再补一封邮件过去,请她还是要发我offer sheet,我<span style="color: black;">必须</span>跟同事确认细节,<span style="color: black;">这般</span>方便<span style="color: black;">有些</span>。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="color: black;">此时</span>候她到时很爽快,直接回复我,会尽快给我报价单。这个“尽快”,又是尽快到下一天,<span style="color: black;">亦</span><span style="color: black;">便是</span>第十二天的时候,才发了报价单给我。内容上<span style="color: black;">无</span>任何<span style="color: black;">调节</span>,只是页面设置了一下,我<span style="color: black;">亦</span>很纳闷,<span style="color: black;">为何</span><span style="color: black;">必须</span>一天时间,第二天才发给客户?不是随手一分钟就能搞定?</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">当我把这个事情跟助理一讨论,往来邮件转发她的时候,她本能反应<span style="color: black;">便是</span>,这个价格不对啊,太高了。<span style="color: black;">而后</span>很鄙视地看了我一眼,我<span style="color: black;">晓得</span>她的潜台词是,老大,你在做些什么啊?用了十二天时间,就拿到了一个破价格,还是一个毫无<span style="color: black;">道理</span>的EXW价格?</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">翌日下午,助理就跑来跟我<span style="color: black;">报告</span>,<span style="color: black;">她们</span>最好的价格是26块人民币含税,FOB到港口的价格,<span style="color: black;">况且</span>手里是拿着样品过来的。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">我连忙问,<span style="color: black;">怎样</span>做到的?</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">她说,她<span style="color: black;">经过</span>百度搜索这家<span style="color: black;">机构</span>,<span style="color: black;">发掘</span>还有做阿里的国内站,<span style="color: black;">亦</span><span style="color: black;">便是</span>1688。她<span style="color: black;">经过</span>网站进去,找到<span style="color: black;">tel</span>,打<span style="color: black;">tel</span>过去问价格,说自己是做微商的,<span style="color: black;">伴侣</span>圈卖卖。拿到基本价格后,跟对方相互加了<span style="color: black;">微X</span>,<span style="color: black;">有些</span><span style="color: black;">弥补</span>的信息,<span style="color: black;">照片</span>和装箱量,都是<span style="color: black;">微X</span>问出来的。<span style="color: black;">而后</span>转了500块样品费,让对方寄了三个样品,顺丰到付,完美<span style="color: black;">处理</span>。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">这<span style="color: black;">便是</span>水平,把问题<span style="color: black;">快速</span>推进,<span style="color: black;">快速</span><span style="color: black;">处理</span>,三板斧就达到目的。直接把一个水分十足的8.5美金,变<span style="color: black;">成为了</span>26块人民币。好吧,她立功了,奖励她一顿下午茶,找我报销。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="color: black;">然则</span>这件事情给了我不少启发,<span style="color: black;">便是</span>大部分的外贸企业,在抱怨订单难做,客户难沟通的时候,有<span style="color: black;">无</span>思考过,是不是自己<span style="color: black;">这儿</span>出了问题?当你<span style="color: black;">无</span>做过买家的时候,是感受不出,自己的谈判和应对,是不是无可挑剔的。或许在买手眼里,你是个超级烂的业务员,<span style="color: black;">基本</span>不想跟你打交道,但你还自我感觉良好,<span style="color: black;">由于</span>你看不到问题所在。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">是不是这个道理呢?</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">大部分业务员,都<span style="color: black;">期盼</span>客户是带着订单来的,只要你金口一开,价格一报,细节数量谈一下,立刻就签单,立刻就转账。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">想法很好,<span style="color: black;">然则</span>有<span style="color: black;">无</span><span style="color: black;">思虑</span>到,我管理课里<span style="color: black;">尤其</span>讲到的Z变量,<span style="color: black;">亦</span><span style="color: black;">便是</span>同行?订单不是你跟客户两人决定的,还有第三方,<span style="color: black;">便是</span>同行的反应。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">同行的报价是你1/2的时候,你<span style="color: black;">怎样</span>有<span style="color: black;">自信心</span>,你能拿下订单?更何况,还是我支付十倍样品费,从你们内贸<span style="color: black;">分部</span>拿到样品,<span style="color: black;">而后</span>交给你同行<span style="color: black;">按照</span>样品报价的时候?</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;"><span style="color: black;">因此</span>这一切都是未知的,丢掉订单,怪不了别人,<span style="color: black;">亦</span>怪不了客户,大<span style="color: black;">都数</span><span style="color: black;">状况</span>下,还是自己无能啊。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">(P.S.:这个case还有一个<span style="color: black;">特别有</span>意思的插曲,前面<span style="color: black;">说到</span>的Kerry是这工厂的二代,<span style="color: black;">亦</span>是我管理课程和业务课程的学员。别问我怎么<span style="color: black;">晓得</span>的,<span style="color: black;">由于</span><span style="color: black;">经过</span>他官网上的手机号,我<span style="color: black;">微X</span>里就有这么个人,<span style="color: black;">况且</span>聊过<span style="color: black;">非常多</span>。</p>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: black; line-height: 40px; text-align: left; margin-bottom: 15px;">Kerry<span style="color: black;">朋友</span>,自己站出来反省吧。我这边一个报价的小事情,不重要。<span style="color: black;">然则</span>你<span style="color: black;">这般</span>管理团队,让<span style="color: black;">机构</span>对外的窗口,变得如此不专业,如此糟糕的用户体验,<span style="color: black;">怎样</span>跟<span style="color: black;">优秀</span><span style="color: black;">有效</span>的同行竞争?)</p>
这夸赞甜到心里,让我感觉温暖无比。 你的见解真是独到,让我受益匪浅。 谷歌网站排名优化 http://www.fok120.com/
