加拿大外贸
没有跟进就没有客户当年的时候好象也看到过有人用这个题目, 经过这么年的外贸我自己这个也有一些自己的领悟。去年的时候和一资深的外贸经理在聊天我们躺坐在公园的草坪上,晒晒着暖暖的太阳但是我们的话题却不是那么轻松的, 聊起一些公司以你发出邮件的多少说评述你的工作的卖力程度, 我开玩笑说如果一个业务手里只有20个客户他即使一周将所有客户联系一次也只有20封邮件,基数小怎么会有更多的邮件,朋友说错至少应该有60封邮件,我瞪大眼睛看着她问答案,她打了一个比方如果你周一报了一个价格, 然后你周三的时候就可以问问客户有什么想法, 然后到周五的时候可以有另外的产品报出,这样一周你应该至少有2封邮件。朋友说法虽然不能说是100%的真理但是对我的触动还是挺大的, 原来跟进邮件可以这么写呀。
对于首次报价的客人第一次跟进应该是报完的2-3天而此次的跟进不要任何多余的话只是提醒TA一下我之前给你价格,如果需要更多的信息请联系我。之后的跟进不要总问类似问题,而是针对产品做一些细节上面的邮件跟进。比如用细节图片展示一下产品特点。 又或是在另一封邮件里告诉客人这个产品我们在那个市场卖的好以及原因。总之跟进的邮件不必封封都赤裸裸地让客人对你的报价有回应,我们希望是这样的只是现实是很残酷,所以我们退而求其次,你能看我的邮件就好了,如果你看我一定有你想要的东西展示给你,是因为这样客人才选我。我曾经有过跟进客户8封邮件客人才开始回应我。很多客户我们不期待象中大乐透一下,一写就有结果,而更多的客户是因为我们不停的跟进最后水到渠成,成了我们客户。有时候你甚至可以把已经发过的报价, 仍然象第一次报他一样, 不说以前报过,只是象新样品一样再报一次,因为有时候客人对你前次的报价并没有看,而这一次他有兴趣看了, 我曾经一个西班牙客人我第一次报他跟进了2次仍是没有回,我就把报价重新发的象首次报新品一样, 然这一次他有兴趣了开始要样品。
讲一个客户拿样样品出问题然后跟进的实例:
背景是新客人,有拿样品结果样品没有达到客人的要求:
客人的回复是这样的滴:
Dear S
the samples are arrived, but unfortunatelly the quality don´t meet our requirements.
You know, we have very similar items in our catalog and I can not replace our existing items
after checking your samples.
I´m sorry to bring you this bad news.
从邮件来看你就知道客人对这个产品已经不感兴趣了,因为第一只告诉你产品有问题,不告诉细节, 第2他说BAD NEWS 这就意味着现在大家要terminal了。
我的第一封跟进邮件去了:
Dear C
Thank you for your prompt feedback.
You are right if our items are into your sales, they must meet your available quality. Could you advise more details about our quality? during met W(这是他们头), he told me that your available size ( 100*100mm/200*100mm) and power :3W /7w is different from our 500*500mm with 8W /12W, I am not sure if our specification isn‘t also met your requirements? If not this only quality, please advise us details, we will improve and avoid and pls let us rework right quality to you. As our potential customer, our boss and team would like to do our best for you, please help us become your potential supplier too.
因为没有产品问题细节告诉我们,所以我们只能自己先分析一次,为的是抛砖引玉,当然他没有回。
我的第二次跟进在三天后又去了:
Dear C
Good day!
We are really looking forward your details about quality problem and very important to us, thank you !
跟进邮件要长长短短,光长光短都不合适, 这是一封短的。
第三次跟进大约是5天后,
Dear C,
Good day!
About LED panel sample we sent you, at the moment our engineer is doing some improvement, we would like to take your feedback into our improvement, so please give us more details and your requirements.
I would like to get your comments soonestly and see if we can do more together, thank you !
这次我告诉他因为我们正在改进需要他的意见,跟进频率和内容多多少少有一点不样,如果老是一样客人就反感。
第四次路进是2天后, 在客人不回,打电话不回的情况下,我不能坐以待毙必须自救,所以我自己先来找找原因, 于是又有了这封邮件:
Dear C
You found some dots in edge of white about LED panel due to LED chip array, as beginning our Germany customer ordered the items with dots from Taiwan, so when we start to open order for this mould, we both are not care this enough. but now more customer start to work with us about item, last week, we solved it by improving coating. If only this point from our quality requirement, please don’t worry.
If another problem, please advise us freely.I know it's time to keep busy.
层层推进你需要自己找真相, 也需要给客人真相让客人知道我们一直在工作, 然客人还是没回应, 我要用我的大杀招了。
我的最后一次跟进,直接去找W ,知道是谁吧,
Dear W
Good day !

Last email said, 6000hours ERP and CE/RoHS approval by TUV SUD, at the moment, 300mm& 500mm is regular in Germany market , especially 500mm. we would like to offer you as reference.
Last sample about LED panel, C told us quality wasn’t met yours, could you advise us some details ? it is very important for us. The item we develop mainly for Germany market. today our engineer and I also discuss about quality, but we really like to know more details, thank you.

光光告状这个段位太LOW了, 所以我先报个价,然后不经意间再说一下那个没有回应的问题。所以我就收到了C 的邮件但是是从W 转他的,意外之喜是客人对新报的也有兴趣。
Dear S,
can you tell me the German customer for 500mm Slim LED cabinet panel?
I need further informations about this cabinet lights.
How many pieces can be connected ?
What is the highest LED driver ?
Please send me a quotation for the different switch.
The quality problem of the fino panel is of course that you can see some dots in edge of the frame.
The LED are shining through the frame, that´s really bad.

跟进方法很多,但要避免内容空洞的重复, 跟进的频率要有节奏,跟进也要有一定的周期, 我们常常因为客人没有回或是忙,有时候中断了。

Amanda,
你好。完完整整的把你所写的文章给看了二遍,并且又把它抄在了我日常经常看的笔记中。虽然看似所说的道理都懂,但是实际操作起来却不是那么的容易,幸好有你自已的案例作例子。非常的精彩!英文也很棒!希望自己能从中学习到你的精髓!
此外,想加你好友,但显示无法添加了。刚给你发了短信,可坐等到现在也没有收到你的回复,你能加下我好友吗?想和你讨论、学习,希望不会占用你太多的时间。谢谢!

谢谢你的肯定, 其实没有什么捷径做外贸都是辛苦得来, 很多事你想多了办法就有了,有时候我也常常陷入困境没有办法了, 然后又不停想,业务的好处是你有N 种方法可以试, 很多方法是试出来的。
评论
谢谢你的回复。想向你学习,主要是想向你学习这种思维方式,而不是想取捷径,如果真的有捷径,就没有这么多的外贸同仁辛苦的去争取订单了。有时,遇到报价后没有任何消息或者客户只是回复说价格高,你是怎么处理的呢?
