You are searching for a good supplier, and they are searching for good buyers. Bridging the gap quickly and accurately is a hard-earned tactic. Below are the must-have skills and platforms most seasoned buyers use.

Compared to some suppliers on Alibaba who might rely heavily on Google Translate, the representatives at trade shows are usually much more professional.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. Send RFQ to Suppliers<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At this point, we need the previously prepared&nbsp;<strong>RFQ file<\/strong>. Draft an email and attach the RFQ as well. To avoid unnecessary time-costing,&nbsp;<em><strong>please notice to stress out all information you need from suppliers in the email at one time<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">a. Send RFQ to suppliers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve come to the hardest step. Chinese suppliers get bombarded with email requests all the time from flaky buyers, so it\u2019s common for them not to reply to every single email. High-quality inquiries are always given top priority. Here is how to make yours stand out:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Make an International Call:<\/strong> If possible, go ahead and call your Chinese suppliers. State who you are, what you need, and ask about basic details like MOQ, payment terms, and lead time. Trust me, Chinese suppliers do not often receive direct international calls\u2014this instantly makes you stand out and marks your inquiry as a top priority.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Don&#8217;t Ask &#8220;How Much?&#8221; Randomly:<\/strong> Take a few minutes to plan your email. A well-written RFQ pays off twice as fast.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Keep Following Up:<\/strong> Chinese suppliers work under severe stress and tight schedules. Collecting data for a complete quotation sheet takes time. If they miss something, politely remind them and ensure they are fully informed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Do Your Own Research:<\/strong> While waiting for replies, figure out the prevailing market prices and minimum quantities yourself. Use this data to your advantage when negotiating.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">b. Template of inquiry mail<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The biggest question you\u2019re going to have is \u201chow much?\u201d but before you hastily send the supplier your request for quotation (many times referred to as a RFQ),&nbsp;<strong><em>take a few minutes to plan out what you want to say and the questions you need to ask<\/em><\/strong>. Planning your email will increase your chances that you will receive a response and the correct information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is an example of an email I might send out:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>Hi Sir\/Madam,\nMy name is &#91;your name] and I am from &#91;your company name].\n\nHere we are contacting you in order to approach more potential suppliers.

Supplier Assessment &amp; Fraud Prevention<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>China\u2019s business environment and credit systems have improved massively over the last ten years. However, you still need to be careful to avoid the &#8220;Everything-is-possible&#8221; trap. Finding a reliable supplier isn\u2019t easy. Sometimes, even &#8220;Gold Suppliers&#8221; on platforms turn out to be dishonest. Let\u2019s look at how to properly evaluate a supplier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-review-rfq\">a. Review the RFQ Carefully<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When analyzing quotations, do not just keep your eyes on the price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><thead><tr><th><strong>Important points&nbsp;<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>Review<\/strong><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Product Specification<\/strong><\/td><td>Don\u2019t keep your eyes on the price only while you are&nbsp;<strong>analyzing quotations<\/strong>, but&nbsp;<strong>compare other including parameters<\/strong>&nbsp;instead.

That means,&nbsp;<strong><em>there is no separate Business License, Certificate of Organization Code, Tax Registration Certificate, Social Insurance Registration Certificate, or Auditing Registration either in China<\/em><\/strong>.

A company\u2019s address is highly revealing. Factories are usually concentrated in industrial zones. Trading companies are located downtown; their addresses often end with Mansion, Square, or Plaza.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3.

How to Prevent Fraud<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Even if you check their business license and sign a contract, it doesn&#8217;t guarantee absolute safety. (Even massive global companies like Hanjin have gone bankrupt unexpectedly). However, you can significantly decrease your risks by following these rules:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Be Careful with Payments:<\/strong> Try not to pay the full amount upfront. If possible, negotiate for L\/C or OA. Small, unreliable suppliers are usually incapable of accepting these payment methods.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Use a Local Sourcing Agent:<\/strong> Let your agent (like MySourcify) sign the sales contract directly with the local suppliers. Under Chinese law, a local company can easily and cheaply sue another local party if something goes wrong.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Hire a Third-Party Inspector:<\/strong> Ask a third party to visit the factory and check your goods in person before you remit the final payment. It usually only costs around $200 USD, but it secures your funds to the maximum extent. You can also have them supervise the container loading process. Use small money to protect yourself from big issues!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cast a Wide Net:<\/strong> Try your best to contact 5-8 suppliers initially. Not everyone will reply, and many won&#8217;t meet your expectations. Make sure you have at least 3 viable suppliers who are willing to provide samples before making a final decision.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p><em>Hope you find this article helpful for your importing business.
