I'd like to talk about my experience in this business field, too. Same as most ppl. I graduated from the school last year, and engaging in foreign trade is my initial and final career pursuit. To to professional, it needs some years of experience, and knowledge. Everybody knows it, right? But, the most important is you need to stick to it, be confident with your work and this field. Another factor is also key important, that is keep learning all the time, keep an eye on the national trading policies. Only if you are keep in pace with it, your business should go successfully as you wish. That's only my point of view.

Very excited about the first order

Hi, everybody. maybe most of the friends from here are engaged in foreign trade. As a green hand who working in a small LED company three months. i also have some feeling about our career.6o#n T
Ao~6fr
first of all, i am majored electronic information enginee when enrolled into the colleage, so what made me most impressed is that i take part in the first colleage english test, the result is very upset me. so after that,  i promise, i will try my best to pass it. during the four coleage years, i have no time to chase a girl and also cost less time to learn my major. at last, i pass the band six. and to my surprised, i got the high scores in the graduated students examination. even though, i have make progress in my major. uit(Td-S&E?9a1]

lSulr3pZ Another, when i graduated from university, what's the most things for me is that i have to hunt a satisfied job which can use my major and english, undoutedly, i became a foreign sales. there have tongue time when i start it. my oral engish is not very good,  at the same time, writing is not my strength, so i have to practice it in order to communicate with my clients freely. and now, i have more confidence about it when i get a phone from foreign customer.
2{'C`O3E;DG_
+Zh [9pu&Cfg\Q T[ Last but not the least, after one month, i got the first samples order, that's very excited for me, cause all of my customer are developed by myself. so i arrange our factory to produce the samples as soon as possible so as to we can give a good impress to my customers, so i delivery them to my client on time, after they test its quality, the give an order to me.(VVAj8T

FL%M^PE`(|/K In all, what i want to say is that we have to treat our clients as ourself. only in this way,can we get more and more order and the achievement will be better.

I have been in foreign trade sales for nearly 6 months. But now in this company one month passed, I did not have order. Depressed!:Q :Q . Reading the words I decide to begin to post our information on various b2bsite. Although the chance is slim. Better late than never.

green hand

i am a green hand to look for the customers online , so difficult as you said, but anything will have a end  no matter good or bad ,insist and feedback!
