we all work in the international business group, after how many months or how many weeks you get the frist deal? it spends me nearly 4 months.what about you? it seems everyone has passed a very difficult time. but i believe if we all work hard,we can acheive our success soon. good luck for my friends.

Replying to [xuan]: my first order was introduced by my customer, but i'd like to say that 4months is not a long time actually. like many people say, lucky is very important, but also there are many other factors like pricing, quality and payment term and service etc. now my major obstacle is payment term as i sell things online.

Replying to [xuan]: After 6 month got first deal, it was a good deal by the way

Replying to [xuan]:

Hello there,

It took me a lots of hard work and preknowledge before I got started on Alibaba, that helped to get my first order in 1month.

It is true that it totally depends on the merchandise dealt in, but I also have to say that knowledge and hardwork make a huge difference.

But I believe the greatest thing that helped me to develop was HONESTY and SIMPLICITY.

good luck

Replying to [xuan]:
Good day!

It depends upon the need of the buyer for the products and the endbuyer as the payment is made.

Thats what we prayed as a Seller that the buyer will pay at once their order.

And look for another buyer .

Replying to [xuan]:
I got my first order in third month, it's a samll order, there are some oders placed at the coming monthes.
Some clients told me that the price is high, so big order can't be available. I think getting an order or not depends on your communication skills, the price, sample quality and some other factors, eventhough minor mistake will cause you lose the order. WORK HARD! WE WILL WIN!

Replying to [xuan]:

about half a year.

Replying to [xuan]:I got my first order for 1000 mtrs in a short span of 2 weeks but my problem is that my Company has informed that they need minimum order of 2500 mtrs, and my buyer is silent on the issue.

He informed that after approval of this trial order he will place order for bulk quantity. but the deal got stuck in middle.

Well I am continuously exploring other alternatives, lets see.

I need your Best wishes.

Well, 3 first month after I joined alibaba, there were some Russians that I have emailed finally arrived in my country and as an agent, I had prepared all things to give them best service. I took them in some clothing manufacturers out of town. I booked them hotel, I arranged a car for our travel, gave them local prepaid mobile number to make it easier for them to communicate in here. I spent 3 days tight schedule with them. They seemed very interested, and really like my reference factory. You know what happened next.....? THEY ORDERED DIRECTLY TO MANUFACTURER instead of making it through me.

I am now exploring some opportunities with some other clients. Though I haven't been able to break the duck yet, I am still not giving up.

Replying to [xuan]:I have coming into our company work as a foreign seller just 3 weeks, I don't konw i wiil spend how long time to get my firt deals, but I don't lose my heart that how many difficulties in the futrue. Just do myself ...
