On the other hand, economic recovery in Europe and the United States is unlikely, and the impact of international trade protectionism and trade frictions still exists.

As we all know, the simple process of cross-border sales is as follows:

The customer places an order and signs a purchase contract - the customer pays the full price or part of the deposit in advance according to the contract - the factory arranges the production of the goods - after the production of the goods is completed, and on the premise that the customer pays the full payment, the goods are packaged and shipped according to the contract requirements - after the goods are shipped, customs clearance materials are prepared and sent to the customer according to the customer's requirements - for export goods, arrangements are made to apply for export tax rebates.

As can be seen from the above, many processes require in-depth communication between salespeople and customers, and this communication process cannot be tracked. If the process cannot be tracked, the results will be uncontrollable. It can range from wrong documents to incorrect goods. More importantly, the salesmen directly took away the customers and skipped orders, causing heavy losses to the cross-border sales bosses.

Many people will say that we have corporate emails, and the emails are trackable. No way? It’s 2021, are you still using email?

It goes without saying that everyone knows that the time it takes to open an IM tool is many times longer than that of opening an email.

Now that the global epidemic has prevented international trading companies from going abroad to visit customers, and customers are unable to attend exhibitions, using IM tools to communicate with customers online will make placing orders a normal occurrence.

So someone wants to ask, what does what you mentioned above have to do with WhatsApp? Why should I choose WhatApp? Isn’t it better if I choose Skype, Line, or Zalo? Overseas, WhatsApp is the most used IM tool in the world, and for most countries it has the same status as domestic WeChat.

Now that we are talking about WeChat, if you are smart, you must have thought that the management methods of domestic WeCom can be copied to WhatsApp, but this is only half right, because WhatsApp does not have as complete functions as WeCom.
