How to communicate effectively with a Chinese supplier. It may seem like common sense however, the Chinese speak English as their second language. The amount of emails I've had to decipher for my Chinese suppliers from their western customers is astounding.
KEEP IT SIMPLE:
- explain what you want in point form.
- send pictures
- ask quantity, delivery time, colours available, carton packing details so you can work out the shipping accurately.
- use simple terms, short words.
Rather than let you know, that they don't understand, they simply don't reply or take a guess!
