Although I am a new one for foreign trade, however, I like my job. Compared with the domestic trade, I like foreign better. In China, many people sell their products through Chinese social media such as wechat. So do Most of the domestic steel trade company.

I would like to share the differences between wechat sales and export sales.

1 The people we need to serve is different

As a foreign trade clerk, I just need to talk with the boss or the purchaser abroad. However, I have to chat with more than 20 people, and few people buy it.

2 the amount is differ

The quantity of foreign trade order is bigger. Most of it is wholesale. however, most of The wechat sale belongs to personal consumption, the quantity is much less.

3 the factors of purchase is different

The importer will consider the assessment of seller qualification, price comparison, quality evaluation, cargo option balance, risk control, service attitude, etc., which belongs to rational consumption; while the wechat sale is lean to impulse consumption.

4 the communication is differ

We have a lot to chat with customers during the foreign trade .but as a buyer of wechat, they seldom communicate with the seller unless there is some question about the quality.

In conclusion, there is always filled with challenges during the work as a foreign trade clerk. I have to learn more and improve my skills .good reputations and high –quality product makes a successful company.

Otai is devoted to providing the high –quality alloy steel 4140 plate and one-stop station service for our customers .we have a good reputation at our loyal customers .please don’t hesitate to cooperate with us.

4140 alloy steel plate: How to find the Mr. Right steel supplier?

How to find a right and reliable steel supplier for the 4140 alloy steel plate?
I joined OTAI Special steel company for many years, when I recalled the memory that I was this team at the beginning. There were really many impressive experience and feelings.

4140 steel plate

As OTAI is the focus on 4140 alloy steel plate and other different tool steel in vary kinds of shapes.This is steel raw material, it does not like those finished products items in different lines. So normally, we explored our market and customers by the internet or visiting.

It really is not easy to develop the new customer at that beginning. Just like the customer is difficult to find the reliable and stable steel supplier. Most of people will have the concern. They concern about the quality, the price and the service. Because the overseas customers are very far from here, they are not sure whether OTAI is the right selection for them.So at that time, when we called to the new customers, someone may reject to answer the phone. When we connected with them by email, someone may never reply you. When we send the message, it is always no answer, no one word.

Nowadays, between the people it is lack of the trust more and more. The reason may be prejudice. Or they have been deceived by others, so they became more careful and cautions. We cannot ask someone how to treat us. They may feel that we did not do a good job yet. So we need to improve ourselves to be the best. We also cannot ask for other companies they need to do the business in a sincere heart. And do not disrupt the market by deceiving customers. The only thing we OTAI can do is to provide the best quality and service in good faith. Time will finally prove it.

So some end user customers they chose us because our professional technical advise. And some new customers placed the order to us because our 21 years long history on the special steel. Someone selected us because after knowing more about us from our company and our sincere sales team. Someone worked with us because of our reasonable price. This is the fate brought by both sides work hard together in an open and honest atmosphere. Therefore, you are so lucky for finding us here as the reliable supplier for supplying the 4140 alloy steel plate.
