Is actively developing customers good or bad? What are the benefits of proactive customer development?

So what are the benefits of proactive customer development?

First: Use the advantage of quantity to create more transaction opportunities When we settled in Alibaba International Station, we found that we could only wait for customers to come to inquire, and there may only be one or two inquiries for several days. And even if there are inquiries, most people just ask for the price. After asking you, he may ask your peers again, which will keep the price very low, the competition is very fierce, and the transaction volume is very small, which makes us very passive. Therefore, we need to take the initiative to find the mailboxes of a large number of foreign customers and send high-quality inquiry information. Only in this way can there be more opportunities for transactions.

Directly using keywords to find supply and demand information will naturally provide more, more professional and more detailed information than B2B websites.
