今天是周六,没什么事情,把我今年的外贸之路回忆一下,哈哈~~~~~
本人表达能力不好,请各位手下留情
我是从今年3月份进入这家公司的,那天上午刚从原来的公司辞职,正好又有人才招聘会,所以就去碰碰运气。(还是我妈跟我一起去的)没想到,人都走光了,摊子都没几个,随便看了下就想走人,结果被一个中年妇女叫住(就是我现在的老板娘),本来他们只是想找个会计,我说我外贸的,跟单或者单证都可以。因为自己没什么经验,英语又烂,连个证书都没有,也不妄想人家会让你业务。去年下半年在原来那个公司里是单证的,但他们根本不需要单证,只是一些文秘上的工作,我到现在都还没过真正的单证工作。偶尔有老外来了,就在傍边听业务员跟老外谈生意。走之前,出了老客户的一个柜子。(好像说远了??)??回到那天,我妈很积极地问他们公司在哪里,一听,原来离我家很近,招聘会上人也没有了,反正顺路,就跟着他们一起来了,顺便看看公司。(一起的还有一个应届毕业生)
刚到公司,一看环境不错,是家新公司,只有空壳,几台液晶电脑,公室和样品间什么的都弄得很好,很气派,至于机器,包括网站,样本,样品,平台,公用的文件夹,计算机什么的通通没有。接着就像考试似的给了我们一封英文邮件,要把它翻译出来。我只看懂了几句,下面的都是专业产品名称,根本不懂,随便乱写一气就交了,我记得当时那个带我们回来的老板看着我的卷子还说了一句:写了些什么都不知道??我那个脸是刷地一下红了 加上里面空调温度好高。当时一定好糗
我以为不会用我,没想到,来了个期,1000一月,而且是业务。既然离家很近,上班方便,期工资也比我原来那里高,还可以让自己试着业务。老板都挺随和(一共四个老板 )就先试试好了,大不了到时候混不下去了再去单证。
上班第一天,老总(最大的股东)给了我一份单子,说是要报价的,让我把产品名称翻译出来,我当时那个郁闷啊,我连公司什么产品的都不知道:L (很傻吧,找工作都不问什么产品 ),更何况那些专业名称。迅速装了个金山词霸,硬着头皮看,还是不懂,那些字面理解根本都不能用的。幸好老板周到,给了我一本别人公司的样本,让我对照着翻,琢磨了两天才马马虎虎地完工。
接下来几天就老等着老板交待任务,我连写字的笔都是自己带来的:L
两个月后,公司网站终于顺利完成,紧接着好了阿里国际平台,还了google推广,说实话,新公司就这么投资,真不错了。还打算参加上海的一个行业展。当时,跟我一起面试的那个因为离家远辞职了,所有的询盘就都归我了,刚始其实也不多,而且我们价格都没有,有些是外购价格,有些则是老板算的。但那个价格实在不专业,高的高,低的低,一个单子都没成。
7月份左右,公司样品慢慢有了,价格也慢慢稳定了。
10月份参加完展会后,效果非常好,很多客户的主动询盘,并且成交率也可以。(期间来了个男业务,公司就我们两个业务员,一个师傅,一个画图纸,一个兼职工程师)
今年,我们公司两个业务员,总销额大概一百多万,虽然不多,但已经很满足,希望明年获多多,公司发展得越来越大。
先在这里感谢我以前公司老板的尖酸刻薄,和变态教育,让我懂得这个社会和在公司生存的道理。
感谢所有帮助过我的人和所有在FOB发帖子的人,让我有机会学习。
特别感谢Gopa,在我不懂的时候,总是细心帮我解释,并你宝贵的意见和建议。
写了半天,好像都是公司的发展情况,下面贴一个我刚接的单子的来回邮件。
先到了个询盘,然后报价。下面是客户的回复:
