已经记不清有多少次价格谈到最后,我价格坚决不再让步,客户对我说: If that, we are afraid we will place order to other suppliers. 而我回复: Based on our quality, our profit is very low. If we cut 0.70 USD/CTN, we cannot keep reasonable profit then order will be rejected by our financial dept. Because it's no meanning of accepting this order, it only makes our workers tired and occupy capital.
If we force ourselves to accept this order, we may have to bring down the quality to average our cost
So please kindly evaluate our price again. If it's really hard to work, we hope we can work with you for next order. Appreciate for your support.
最后客户还是自己找了台阶下,把订单下过来,如:We need shipment on time. If you assure you will make shipment on time, please send PI.
为什么明知道有些订单还有空间可以降价,我不降价呢,因为在大多数情况下,一个买家,当他跟你杀价两次以上时,其实他内心已经认可了你的产品和价格。这个时候他无非就是想多获得一些利好。如果你继续同意让步,是种很危险的行为。因为买家对你赚取正常利润他是无可厚非的,如果你一味降价,他只会觉得自己被宰。所以你告诉他,If we force ourselves to accept this order, we may have to bring down the quality to average our cost.他就害怕了。因为宁愿买贵一些,质量也不能差。否则买过去以后,客户会陷入无休止的客户投诉,经济和声誉都受损。
我一般这样和客户沟通: With reference to your target price, we believe we are not talking the same product, maybe different quality or specification. According to our experience, this is frequently happen when price has big gap. For you to get right cost, It would be better if you could send us your samples. We think it is the best and effective way to avoid any possible mistake or misunderstanding.
然后如果客户不愿意寄样品或者说没有到付账号,可以表现得积极有诚意一些: If not convenient, we will arrange courier to collect samples from your side.
How do you think?
