Foreign Trade Solutions: How to Find Customers in Foreign Trade

Combined with my own experience, I summarized the following methods, hoping to share them with my friends:

1, use the transnational procurement network to find customers.

Register as a member of the website and find the buyer information. You can use the points to check the buyer's purchase information and contact information, and you can find some potential customers.

2. Use "Global Buyers Directory Thomasnet.com and American Buyers Directory Thomasnet.com" to develop customers.

After Kompass is registered, customers can be found by searching "keywords and industry words", and some can even send messages directly to customers' mailboxes.

After Thomasnet is registered, you can also search for "keywords" to find customers and send messages; ;

3. Use customs data to find customers.

Enter the product name or customs code to search for buyers, and you can get a lot of potential customer information for free.

4. Use Whatsapp to develop and follow up customers.

Whatsapp is especially suitable for following up with customers after having customer clues (such as mobile phone numbers). This software is as popular abroad as Facebook and Twitter, and its usage rate abroad is very high. Most customers in South America and Europe use Whatsapp.

5. Use foreign recruitment websites to search for "positions and industries" to find customers.

Foreign well-known recruitment websites, Indian company recruitment websites and Hong Kong recruitment websites;

Many enterprises here are foreign trade companies and our potential customers.

6. Use official website and foreign exhibitions to find customers.

Because of some objective conditions, we can't go to foreign exhibitions at all, but we can check the professional exhibition websites and exhibitors' lists. We can see the customers' mailboxes in them, and some can send messages to customers on them, and the customers' mailboxes will receive your information.

7. Use the big data platform to find customers.

The B2B platform of trade manager takes "artificial intelligence" and "big data" as the core, and provides users with global buyer information, including the contact email address of purchasing department, customs data, enterprise scale and operating conditions. In order to grasp the purchasing demand of the world market in time and bridge the transaction between domestic small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises and foreign buyers.

8. Use Facebook and LinkedIn to find customers (new routine)

Many people have used this method, but here are some new routines:

Look for competitors' friends on Facebook, observe their interactions, and turn competitors' friends into your own.

Look for industry circles, industry association circles, etc. In LinkedIn, it is to join more groups, and you can search for groups through keywords; Join in and read more of their speeches;
