Breaking the traditional international business mode, Buyer Service Department of Made-in-China.com has extended our face-to-face business negotiation to a deeper level by launching Global Sourcing Event. Recently, the third Global Sourcing Event was successfully held in June during Guangzhou International Lighting Exhibition 2013. As was the weather, the 3rd Global Sourcing Event was “hot”.
During the four days of the exhibition, we received 56 buyers’ sourcing requests, provided tailored match meetings for 18 buyers from different countries with prompt and accurate matches, 4 of them made appointments to visit the suppliers’ factories. But what we have done is much more than this. Before the event, we had done some research on requests of the buyers and products of the suppliers that applied for the event. Therefore on the spot we could match buyers and suppliers promptly and accurately. We deeply understand that one face-to-face negotiation is not enough, what suppliers and buyers want is more opportunity to learn about each other and establish the foundation of further cooperation. Therefore we built friendly atmosphere for the negotiation and encouraged buyers to visit suppliers’ factories. During the factory visits, we could offer professional assistance if they need. Bothe buyers and suppliers were very interested in and fond of the Global Sourcing Event. One Indian buyer benefited so much from this event that he immediately introduced one of his friends to us because he wanted his friend to share the same convenience and pleasure in searching for right supplier and product. Another buyer V.P. Mahendru was unable to restrain his happiness and praised: “Your event makes the exhibition so easy and convenient.” More Global Sourcing Events will be held in the future and we have the reason to believe that the passion and praise from both buyers and suppliers will be constantly seen in the following events.
