Following are few points: 1. Be attentive to your targets that require immediate attention in import export operations. 2. We normally keep a five minutes journal for the next day and write down tasks and how to be completed . 3. We have to keep clear and written communication with importers and exporters so that you have an idea of what you have discussed and what has been achieved . 4. Don’t leave unfinished tasks for the next day as that may cost you extra as the rates frequently change in import export business.

Communication is very important in import export business . Hence one needs to be attentive to very minute details as what is discussed and what is presented. Mindful thinking is integral part of import export business. Written communication is more better and beneficial to both parties.

Communication is key in export/import transactions. 1. Strong hold should be on the written Communication. 2. Verbal communication on approvals and directions received from customers should be recorded by email. 3. Email management is important. 4. Highlight the key requirements of client and give instructions to all the concerned departments. 5. Review the order on time and instruct your team to raise questions and queries before execution. 6. Request customers to give feedbacks on quality, delivery and service for improving the service.

To avoid stress full communication one must take few minutes to gather the gist of discussions and think over it. Then relax your mind by exercising or Yoga , and then move on to the topics. I have noticed that many people have an important call to attend and they are not ready with their homework as to what needs to be discussed and how it is to be presented to clients importers or exporters.

One has to plan the tasks and schedules on a priority basis and the time frame to achieve the results. Time frame is very critical factor and must be addressed with mindful planning .
