一眨眼的功夫,又到年底了。對于做外貿(mào)的小伙伴們來說,12月是各國買家開啟度假模式的月份。如果你的客戶要在這個月休假,請記得提前催單,抓緊發(fā)貨。離圣誕節(jié)僅有十幾天時間,今天給大家送上“及時雨”,希望對你所有幫助!
1. 了解客戶放假時間
如果過年的時候,我發(fā)郵件給你說,幫我核算價格,請問小伙伴們 你們的想法是什么呢?估計能第一時間打開電腦核算價格應該不多吧。
所以在這個時間給客戶發(fā)郵件,客戶可能忙于過節(jié),就沒有及時回復,也是正常的。首先不要因為客戶沒有及時回復而傷心。然后有個功課需要提前做好,就是有必要先了解下,不同國家的放假時間,根據(jù)時間發(fā)送,這樣盡可能避免過節(jié)騷擾人的嫌疑。
2. 臨近圣誕新年,如何催單?
圣誕節(jié)結束,也就要到我們的傳統(tǒng)新年春節(jié)了。以下是5個催單的思路,希望對你有幫助:
1)提醒客戶即將而至的節(jié)假日:
As you know the Christmas season will get busy with factories and then we have CNY, so let's move fast. 圣誕節(jié)工廠會很忙,緊接著我們又要過春節(jié)了,請盡快進展。
2)工廠生產(chǎn)需要排單,及早下單以便盡快安排:
①Busy production is approaching. Kindly inform you that our factory is working at a full capacity. 旺季將至,我們生產(chǎn)期已經(jīng)排得很滿。
The ealier you place the order, the sooner we can schedule the production plan. 你越早下單,我們才能越快排單。
② Thus, highly appreciated if we can receive your order confirmation soon, and arrange prouction without delay. 因此如能盡早收到訂單確認,感激不盡。我們將及時安排訂單生產(chǎn)。
3)公司促銷推廣活動,降價打折
這點要把握好,要根據(jù)自身產(chǎn)品附上相關細節(jié),讓客戶覺得物超所值,而不是反倒成為客戶一再壓價的話柄。
We wish if we can spare you a few minutes. Here is our super Christmas sale. The discount is even up to 30% off. 希望能占用你幾分鐘時間。這是我們推出的圣誕促銷活動,折扣甚至高達七折。
Feel free to reach out if you get interested. 如感興趣,歡迎垂詢。
4)公司清倉/清庫存活動,逾期不候
We would like to announce that we will be having a Christmas Clearance Sale. We will be offering up to 30% discount on all the items of the attached list starting from [開始日期] to [結束日期].It's on a first come first serve basis. 請知悉,這是我們推出的圣誕清倉活動。附件清單里的所有產(chǎn)品高達7折優(yōu)惠,先到先得。
5)物流旺季,溫馨提醒客戶需要排倉
Because of the busy production season, we need to queue for theavailable shipping space. Please make your decision as soon as possible to avoid further delay. 由于現(xiàn)在是旺季,我們還得預留時間排倉。請盡早做決定,避免進一步延遲。
3. 出貨旺季,需要注意哪些細節(jié)?
1)告知貨期需謹慎
工廠一忙,各種情況都可能發(fā)生。告知客戶貨期一定要預留多幾天,采用迂回方式告知客戶貨期具體是多少工作日,但會盡快安排生產(chǎn),爭取早點出貨。
2)報運費時要注意
旺季運費浮動得厲害,報海運費一定要加上有效期。而且要強調運費因為旺季有所浮動。和客戶說明以最后出的運費賬單為準。禁止把價格說死了,到時不好和客戶回旋。
3)出運前得上心
一定要多和車間保持溝通,知道做貨進展;
一定要多拍點照片留底,實時和客戶反饋;
一定要提前通知客戶做貨情況,款到發(fā)貨;
一定要在發(fā)貨前點好數(shù)量,確認好大貨品質;
一定要貼好裝箱標識,避免清關麻煩;
一定要檢查包裝,海運散貨及空運要加強包裝。
出貨前很操心很忙,這才是常態(tài)。但是總比客戶投訴時再如熱鍋上的螞蟻急得團團轉更好一些。
4. 貨期延誤,如何告知客戶?
請記得兩點:告知貨期預留時間和實時跟進生產(chǎn)進展。這樣才能更及早地通知到客戶貨期延誤。在出貨前一兩天再去告訴客戶,真的很遭反感,遇到暴脾氣的分分鐘炸起來。因為他們如果是等著這批貨做活動,那邊一切安排妥當,只差物料就緒。臨時才告知,除了誤事,還會讓他們覺得你很不負責任,不然有再多的理由,也很難聽進去。
5. 貨運爆倉,如何安撫客戶?
出現(xiàn)爆倉,第一時間要hold住,不必急著告訴客戶。
貨代手里頭都有很多個渠道,你也要動用手里頭所有的資源去想辦法看看能否在保證運費不變動的情況下?lián)Q渠道走。
假若貨物已經(jīng)在監(jiān)管倉,需要告知客戶:
海運:Sorry to inform you the shipping space is very tight on the planned vessel, our container was dumped to be loaded by the next available voyage. We will keep you updated. 很抱歉通知您,預計走的那班船船艙爆滿,我們只能走下一班最近的船了。會告知您進展。
空運:Sorry to inform you due to the peak season, shipping space is very tight. We are unable to catch the flight as schedule. Now waiting for forwarder's further update. Will keep you posted accordingly. 很抱歉通知您,艙位很緊張。我們沒法趕上原計劃的那班航班。目前在等貨代通知,會相應地進一步告知進展。
每天和貨代保持溝通,并且同步更新給客戶。在客戶問你之前,先告訴他進展,讓他覺得你一直很上心在跟進。
還可以從網(wǎng)絡上獲取一些倉庫爆倉,司機排隊進倉的照片給客戶。因為很多客戶對爆艙其實是很模糊的概念,或者一些人口本來不是很多的國家,根本想象不到具體人多貨多的場景如何。有照片一目了然,也更能獲得客戶的同理心。
6. 圣誕節(jié)該送什么禮物?
一說到送禮品,大多數(shù)想到的都是弘揚傳統(tǒng)文化的中國特色元素的禮物。但是現(xiàn)實情況是,很多中國通的客戶也都看習慣了這些禮物,所以建議選擇禮物也是要根據(jù)不同的客戶來定的,用換位思考的方式,看看客戶需要什么。
在收集和分析客戶資料的時候,就要注意記錄客戶的興趣愛好、生活習慣等等。根據(jù)不同客戶的情況也可以選擇送一些商務型的禮物。
一來可以體現(xiàn)實用價值,二來,展示公司文化內涵。只要要注意挑選禮物的個性、類型、款式,最后可以在上面印上自己公司的LOGO,還可以起到宣傳企業(yè)品牌的作用,給客戶留下專業(yè)而且深刻印象。
7. 那么圣誕賀卡祝福語寫點什么?
