做外贸,一般都是钱到账了才心安。跟进了好久的客户终于下单了,但是就是迟迟不付款!签合同时有多爽,催款时就有多惨。
面对客户不付款,先弄清客户造成拖欠的原因,应针对不同的情况采取不同的催款策略。
- 客户是因为忙得忘记了,发送一封邮件提醒一下就好了。
- 客户已经收到邮件但是就是迟迟不付款,可以分析下客户不付款的原因。是因为对货品不满意?中间出现了有力的竞争对手?还是客户想要用这种方式拖沓,可以少付或者让你给点优惠?
- 干等不是办法,用电话沟通是最直接的。可以直接获取客户的原因,也可以通过一些语气判断出客户对这件事的态度。
催款不是什么见不得人的事,也没有什么妙语,最有效的方式就是有话直说,千万别说对不起,或绕弯子。
今天我就来说说
