What is your personal experience in operating cross-border e-commerce on AliExpress?

| 1Person Answer

个人感受:要懂的去理智选品,拒绝盲目。

第一点:需要有稳定的货源。你一个产品,不管我们以后是否能做大,最需要的一点,那就是有没有稳定的货源,不然到时候,出单了,没有货了,或者说停产了,那么我们这个单也就废了,不单单这个单废了,还影响了我们的一个整体的店铺情况,这样的情况对我们来说是十分不利的。

第二点:有没有足够的周转资金,对于某些客单价较高的产品来说,如果你没有足够的资金可以周转,那么你到时将会变得资金周转困难,运费付了,产品进货又有困难了。

第三点:你要知道你自己是就做个兼职呢 还是说是要用这份工作哪来养家糊口,当做一份正经的工作。

考虑物流发货困难的产品:

要考虑物流发货困难的产品,比如说液体,粉末之类的,你要知道有些物流是不允许发的,你要先弄清楚,你这个产品,在自己当地的物流渠道中,是否能发你这个产品。

考虑平台价格定位:

你做一个平台,你就要先去了解这个平台,像速卖通,他是以中低价畅销的一个平台,那么,首先你产品的进货价格就不能太高,还要去了解,你所选的产品类目中,其他卖家的价格,如果你算出来,你产品的总价过于偏高,那么你就需要来做对比了。

考虑国外的风俗习惯:

你要知道国外的风俗,和我们国家的风俗是不一样的,所以不要以为我们自己喜欢的东西,那些国外的人就喜欢,你需要去多查查看国外的人的习惯,多去逛一些国外的社交软件,例如Facebook之类的。

考虑季节运达时间:

如果你在选产品的时候,知道国外有一些自己的节日,比如说圣诞节之类的,你在圣诞节日子到的前面一两个月,可以选择上传一些关于圣诞节需要的产品。为何是前面一两个月呢 因为,从国内到国外,你配送的时间就将近要一个月的配送时间了。所以要提前上架。

Personal experience: You must know how to choose products rationally and refuse to be blind.

The first point: You need to have a stable supply of goods. For a product, no matter whether we can grow in the future, the most important thing is to have a stable supply of goods. Otherwise, when the order is placed, there is no stock, or the production is stopped, then our order will be scrapped. Not only will the order be scrapped, but it will also affect the overall situation of our store. This situation is very unfavorable for us.

The second point: Do you have enough working capital? For some products with a higher average customer price, if you do not have enough funds to work around, then you will have difficulty in capital turnover. After paying the freight, it will be difficult to purchase products.

The third point: You need to know whether you are doing a part-time job or whether you want to use this job to support your family and treat it as a serious job.

Consider products that are difficult to ship by logistics:

Consider products that are difficult to ship by logistics, such as liquids and powders. You should know that some logistics are not allowed to ship. You should first find out whether your product can be shipped in your local logistics channels.

Consider platform price positioning:

If you build a platform, you must first understand the platform. For example, AliExpress is a platform that sells well at low and medium prices. So, first of all, the purchase price of your product cannot be too high. You must also understand the prices of other sellers in the product category you choose. If you calculate that the total price of your product is too high, then you need to make a comparison.

Consider foreign customs and habits:

You must know that foreign customs are different from those in our country, so don’t think that what we like is what foreigners like. You need to check the habits of foreigners and visit some foreign social software, such as Facebook.

Consider seasonal delivery time:

If you know that there are some holidays abroad, such as Christmas, when you are selecting products, you can choose to upload some products needed for Christmas one or two months before Christmas. Why one or two months before? Because it takes nearly a month to deliver from China to abroad. So you have to put them on the shelves in advance.
