Hi, saieksi here ! i have saw all the message above , none of them ever told you how to deal with it, So i have some idea on that! I have been selling on alibaba for 3 years! here is my suggestion! 1. refresh your all either selling leads or products twice everyday ! 2. creat selling leads everyday, don;t stop , more and better 3. please handle the title and key word clearly, change them as more as possible, take every relevent keyword into consideration! 4. you have to do something on your email , make your email looks special and professional, make content simple and Clear 5. you have to improve your email skill, talking skill, as you know , most of order was happened online , like on messenger and tradermanager 6. keeping thinking ,keep creating, keep help other people! they will help you in same way !

don be sad....everything take time. It is common many will ask and will not buy immediately due to many causes.enquirer to your mail may come from many sources for example A  compatitor,A enquirer for cheap price,An enquiry for future purchase,

And usually if after some correspondence and still the buyer did not buy it may be due to many factors:

1/theseller may be bad or poor in proper reply to satisfy the buyer doubt

2/usually the buyer feel the seller may not provide good after sale service and the prospective buyer will not buy.

i guess there are many point on why the seller did not get buyer to respond and the reason can be many.But don worry all you need to do is 1/is your price competative,good service can be given to your prospective buyer if they buy,good level of communication with the prospective buyer,are you responding to their enquiry quickly and precisely(accurately)etc

finally is be patience............

yes i quite agree with saikesi .Post your product and up date it regularly.But when reply start to flood in,You will need to act fast and explain all the goodness you can do if the prospective do buy from you and be sure your company keep that promise irregular if the buyer buy in small quantity.Just keep your promise and if they ever buy,make sure you deliver on time (as on time as possible)

hehe i was reading and look into some of your web site and i think like this.....your product may have nich market and buyer usually are also worry about scam.From my personnel experience, i have received many email but many are scam which through experience you can see the way they write.Also many are my competitor as well and some tricky parts are some who wrote to me just merely they are seller themself so when they write to me they will also introduce their product and they are sure i will look at their web site.Hopefully i become the buyer.hehe[em10]

Just persist on your choice to be foreign trade persons.Be familiar with your products firstly.
When we meat an inquiry,we can deal well with it. Then we can seize every opportunity of new business.
