How to find a pet product supplier?

Many newcomers just entering the procurement industry will face concerns and confusion, such as being unfamiliar with the company's processes, not knowing how to find the right supplier, how to purchase the right product, and how to work more efficiently. In fact, the key to the problem is whether the newcomer is positioning itself and replenishing knowledge in a timely manner. As a new purchaser, you should choose the right supplier for you from the following:

First, study

For newcomers who have just stepped into this industry, it is difficult to develop because there is no fixed supplier chain. For the first time, I can't know the true reserve price of the other party. I can only choose the goods based on my own understanding. If you encounter something you don't understand, ask for more information, and communicate with the supplier to learn more about the specific process and industry knowledge of the product. In general: serious, responsible, multi-question, summary, planned, step by step, especially when there are more procurement contents, it is necessary to have a plan and prioritize.

In addition to the positive communication with the supplier, you should also understand the actual situation through the side, try to understand your target supplier as much as possible, and look at the problem from multiple angles. In the work, it is inevitable to communicate with sales, and make friends while doing things, so that there will be long-term stable supply resources.

Second, communication

When newcomers enter the market, it is unlikely that they will quickly find suitable suppliers. The process of finding new suppliers is extremely troublesome, time-consuming and troublesome. Finding suppliers is also a matter of eyesight and reducing the troubles that may arise in communication. Please note that the cost of communication is also recorded in the total cost and cannot be underestimated. Some sales people are not active, and solving problems is lazy, which may become a hidden danger in supply and after-sales. Therefore, it is also very important to look at the qualified business personnel while looking for suitable products.

It is a hard work and process to cultivate suitable new suppliers. After the initial selection, it is necessary to spend your thoughts on cultivating feelings, leaving the professional impression of the other party, avoiding the other party's doubts about your professionalism, resulting in contempt and poor communication.

Third, appropriate

There are no best suppliers in the world, only the ones that are best for your company!

As a newcomer, you should not only be very familiar with the specific conditions of your own factory, but also try to spend time to contact and understand the quality and price of the brand manufacturers you need, to see the year they entered and the major customers. If you have the conditions, you can go to their company. Take a look and look at their production capacity.

To learn to identify the suppliers of the cottage, although their prices may be low, but can not guarantee the quality and supply stability, once neglected, will leave a big hidden danger. Therefore, shop around, actively contact, communicate frequently, and go to work together, so that there are "best suppliers"!

Fourth, the network

For procurement, understanding the performance and market price of the products the company needs to purchase is fundamental. As the saying goes, if a worker wants to do something good, he must first sharpen his weapon. The Internet is the best way to find it. Before you start looking online, it is recommended to first understand the performance and approximate market price of the products you need to purchase, so that you can have a certain initiative when looking for suppliers online. Have a certain understanding of the product, the supplier will not be underestimated, will not arbitrarily quote.

The specific steps are as follows:

1. Use the online Google, Baidu, Ali, industry portal, B2B and other websites to search for suppliers who want to purchase products, and search for factories or trading companies that are in good agreement with the procurement conditions.

2. Through the government website of the domestic industrial and commercial bureau, check the supplier's website introduction, business license and other information, initially conduct communication and inquiry, and finally determine the suppliers that are suitable for several price products.

3. Through further communication with the target supplier sales, test the sales attitude, lock down some problems in the communication process, and narrow the supplier list to the supplier list.

4. Recommend and introduce the portal website through friends or related professionals, test the company website and network ranking, evaluate the strength and scale of the supplier, and select the right supplier.

5. If the amount is large, you can also go to the factory to inspect the required samples, assess the supplier's qualifications, and finally determine the supplier.

V. Summary

Whether it's buying new people or purchasing people, the first challenge is how to build your own supplier base. As a buyer, in addition to waiting for the salesman to actively sell the door, you should take the initiative to find and establish your own supplier group, and maintain a long-term stable procurement supply chain.

In fact, it is not important for suppliers to be manufacturers, distributors, traders and agents. What is important is whether the supplier can provide suitable products and after-sales services for the company. Therefore, the goal should be positioned to: find trustworthy suppliers, and achieve the goal of purchasing high quality and low price.

Please remember: there is no best in the world, only suitable.
