In the realm of foreign trade, traditional customer - acquisition methods are fraught with inefficiencies and high costs. Trade shows, once considered a reliable avenue, often yield a poor return on investment. A significant amount of time and resources are spent on setting up booths, yet the conversion rate is disappointingly low. On B2B platforms, the problem of spam inquiries is rampant. Up to 80% of the inquiries received on these platforms are either from non - serious buyers or competitors, making it a time - consuming task to sift through and find genuine leads.
Email marketing, another common approach, has an abysmal response rate. Statistics show that the average email response rate in the foreign trade industry is less than 1%. To acquire a single customer, companies often spend over $500, and the conversion rate hovers between 1% and 3%. Moreover, the information screening process is extremely challenging. Customs data is vast and complex, with mountains of records that are difficult to analyze and extract valuable insights from. Social media leads are fragmented, and manual analysis is not only time - consuming but also prone to errors.
Traditional Methods | Precision | Cost | Efficiency |
---|---|---|---|
Trade Shows | 30% | High | Low |
B2B Platforms | 20% | Medium | Low |
Email Marketing | 10% | Medium | Low |
