I am not a very good foreigner trader, exactly. But I would also like to take the precious opportunity to write my feeling down, after being in the foreign trade business for about 8 months.1~

My main work is to explore the foreign market, to search the potential buyer of our products. At that time when I first came to this company, the company did not provide any platform, say Made-in-China, Alibaba, Tradekey, etc., for the employee to explore the foreign market. This means that the only access to get in contact with any potential buyer is B2B free of charge. ?¡ãWhat else shall I do? Nothing. But I will just do it, try it.?¡À I told to myself.

People all know that to explore any potential buyer freely is like to find a needle in the sea---a tough task in front of me and a long way to go, exactly speaking.

[b]Be patient. [/b]PL$D1Y^G(KdH
We now live in a world full of fierce competition. We have to face not only the competition from providers of the same goods as we does, but also the picky importer about the price, the quality, and the packing. This makes to find a potential buyer even tougher. Therefore, please try to keep yourself patient and make yourself believe that it really need time to find the right potential buyer. Never lose your patience, if you do not get reply of your introduction letter of your products after sending introductory mails. Please keep sending mails; probably you will get some reply in your next mail.

Not all seeds will get harvest. But this does not mean that we shall not sew seeds. a0fDwrk\u*lu
As the opposite, we shall keep sewing seeds anytime. Sending the introduction letter of our products is quite the same. You should keep sending the mails, and then you may have the hope to get some reply. Receive the reply is just the first step. You should analyze the received mail, making it clear what the sender is looking for, how to reply the mail so that it can meet the sender??s need. Pay more attention to analyze every mail you get, and find out the best way to reply the relative mails. Here, we may encounter a problem, that is, in most of the case, we may not get any further reply of this mail again. Under this situation, we should take some time and pond over the whole case, why does he/she not reply the mail? Then, you should send one more mail, sending your greetings and trying to find out the reasons that the senders do not reply your mail. This is a very important step in your communication with all potential buyers. Maybe you will gain something surprisingly out of the greeting mail. Therefore, try to be persistent, and never feel hesitate to send the greeting mail if you do not get reply again in your second-round communication with the potential buyer. You will surely gain a lot of bestows sooner or later.6R;O}3Xtqf*S4^h

The process of exploring the potential buyer of your product is just like the Long March, full of uneven barrier and obstacle. Your will surely meet setback and difficulty on the way. Then, keep it firmly in your heart: be optimistic about everything. ?¡ãRainbow always comes after the storm.?¡À Being optimistic, you will
