janetqglobal：Something about Foreign Sales
I became a member of international sales since I graduated from college, which was a kind of dream from me. For most people, it may be a wonderful job, because personally I love English and I do not like to flatter someone. Therefore, the job of international sales is a bit different from that of internal sales.
My first job is to deal with spare parts for cars, like sensor and the company I worked in is small but with its own factory. The boss is very kind, though sometimes he may be in bad-tempered. I have to admit I learned a lot from him and I am quite appreciated. But every coin has two sides, my job in this company is to maintain the good business relationship with one customer, so my routine work is to send e-mails almost every day to the same customer, but I do not have any chance to make my own decision. For a freshman, it was a good thing, as I do not have to take too much responsibility. Then I had to prepare all the documents for export and some kind of delivery, and take records for everything that connected with the customer. I gradually found I learned less and less with zero pressure, and I became a bit bored, that’s the reason why I resigned.
Then I found another job, which deals with components for medium and heavy duty trucks, like brake drums. It is a big company and we have our own factories, while there is a big problem about company’s incentive method and human recourses. Besides, I can not find my expected training mechanism to improve myself. I know everything depends on myself and I have to learn as much as possible to enhance myself. While the problem is I am a bit confused. But I will still try to find my way out.
Therefore, I am wondering whether anyone who also deals with international sales may feel confused, and is there any training for you when you go into a new company? Thanks for sharing in advance.

janetqglobal：
Thanks for your kind reply, and sorry for the big font.
Unfortunately when I find this problem and I was told that I can not edit again, because it was approved

janetqglobal：
It is very easy to have the same feeling as yours, but all you need to do is try to be passionate. When I was doing my first job, I do not have any chance to speak English either, and the worst thing is I was afraid to phone the customer.
Then I changed my attitude gradually that I forced myseld to phone the customer at my second job, because I have to find new customers and it seems the telephone call is the most direct way to find potential customers.
Therefore, attitude decides everything and I sincerely you can get through yourself and find your own happiness when doing the job.
I will try more harder as well

janetqglobal：
Thanks for your kind reply and I hope it may help you in the future 幸会！

janetqglobal：
Thank you for your kind reply, and I will try harder, and I hope you can improve yourself as well .

janetqglobal：
Thank you, that is the point.
Maybe all my confusion is because of my unclear direction. I will try to figure out, and thank you very much .

janetqglobal：
Thanks and have a nice day .

jancykin01：Thank you for your sharing!I am a freshmen,too.I worked in a dental company as an foreign trade saler,from the beginning of the work,my manager ask me to write e-mail everyday,it was a such boring thing!And I have some customers asked me the price,but I do not know how to quote,so I asked my colleagues,they taught me a lot,finally,I graduatelly know how to quote.I will not give up,so are you!
Best wishes to you!幸会！

janetqglobal：
Yeap, you've really made big progress, and I believe you will keep trying . Thanks for your kind response and I will be even better as well.

happypiscestwo：Writen English is wonderful. But you have to know that Language is not the key to be a sale. You have to communicate with your customer, and you need some skills to finish your first complete order by yourself. I believe after your first order, you will become more and more confident. I also did the same paper work in the fist international job, My manager naver taught me , even I asked some questions from him, he is very angry and not willing to solve for me. But after 400 emails later, someday I quote to one customer positively, I saw his information on the net without any buying leads. But he called me back immediately to order from me. I think it's from the energy of accumulations.
Come on， you will be very confident and sucessfulin the near future. Confusion is just a process for eveyone.
