Could you sign some number behind the trade leads , as I find I was often lost where I am.

There is a too long listing,  it's difficult for me to start agian at the place I stopped.

When responding to a buyers email query is it possible to include the string automatically so that when you receive there response you can review the entire conversation ?

Hi

 

Is there means of adding favourite suppliers or maybe potential suppliers to some type of favourites list? For example if i find a supplier and i want to contact them tomorrow can i save there details or do i have to search for them again?

Thanks

hello

i always find my buyers with  key words  add the  least  time .

for example ,we are a nonwoven fabric  company , i always search nonwovenfabric and  nonwoven interlining.

sometimes , i can't successly  search my customers .or the buyers don't  contact me .

i'm sorry that ,but  i will continue  to search   others .

For what it is worth. Remember that a lot of Chinese convert from English to Chinese and sometimes what we take for granted has a different meaning in Chinese.
