Selling Tools


A selling lead is an online invitation to buyers to send you a quotation. To send a selling lead:

Post a Product

Go to "Selling Tools" in My Office and click "Post New Product." When you get to the "Post New Product" page, provide the required information and click "Submit" when finished.

Product Name: Please enter an appropriate product name here, not a model number, or a company name, or a brand name.

Product Photo:
  • 1.Size: less than 200K.
  • 2.Format: JPG
  • 3.The name of your product picture should be in English.


Keywords: Keyword means the word that your company/product/Trade Lead is searched with. Four out of five customers will search for what they need directly. Keyword is at the heart of searching because if your keyword is matched with a customer's sought products, your Trade Leads or products can be listed for buyers instantly.

Selecting Proper Keywords
Example:
Subject: Buy Green Fuji Apple
Category: Agriculture/Fruit

Three Key Words:
No: Green, Fuji, apple
Yes: Green Fuji Apple, Fuji Apple, Fruit

Apple is a real product, and apple is a kind of fruit, so "apple" and "fruit" can be keywords. Green (color) and Fuji (place of origin or species) are adjectives, meaning they modify "apple." They can not be keywords. Nobody searching with such adjectives will find products.


Category:Try to select the most relevant category. If possible, do not select "other." More than one third of buyers look for products by category. A precise category listing will enhance your chances of being found easily.


Product Description: Make sure your description refers only to the features of the product in the picture, not all of your products or your company's general information. Please note: Brief Description will be displayed on the search result list page.


You will receive a message telling you your product(s) have been submitted to our editing team. Products, upon approval, are published on GlobalSaler.com within 24 hours. Once your products are approved, you can choose to display them or not display them. The "Manage Products" table is where you can manage which products you wish to display.

If your products are not approved (i.e., you are required to submit more information), the status will be shown on your My Office homepage in the "Requires Editing" section with "Return Reason".

Please note: The approval process applies to all postings on GlobalSaler.com, including, Company Profile, products, buying leads and selling leads.

Manage my Products

To edit your products, go to My Office. In the "Manage Products" section, you can view all of your products' status at any time. They are classified under three sections:
  • "Edting Required" includes products that have been rejected by GlobalSaler.com because they require editing.
  • "Approval Pending" includes products that have been posted but have yet to be approved. The approval process usually takes 24 hours.
  • "Approved" includes those products that are on display and those not on display. You can choose which products you wish to display.

Please note: You may edit or delete only products currently located in the "Editing Required" and "Approved" sections.

Post a Selling Lead



Subject: A striking and concise subject will increase your chances of being found. Please do not add price and insignificant adjectives, such as "high quality" or "beautiful," or list many products.


Keyword: Keyword means the word that your company/product/Trade Lead is searched with. Four out of five customers will search for what they need directly. Keyword is at the heart of searching because if your keyword is matched with a customer's sought products, your Trade Leads or products can be listed for buyers instantly.

Selecting Proper Keywords
Example:
Subject: Buy Green Fuji Apple
Category: Agriculture/Fruit

Three Key Words:
No: Green, Fuji, apple
Yes: Green Fuji Apple, Fuji Apple, Fruit

Apple is a real product, and apple is a kind of fruit, so "apple" and "fruit" can be keywords. Green (color) and Fuji (place of origin or species) are adjectives, meaning they modify "apple." They can not be keywords. Nobody searching with such adjectives will find products.


Category: Try to select the most relevant category. If possible, do not select "other." One third of buyers look for products by category. A category selection will improve your chances of being found more easily.

Details: When browsing buyer listing websites, we often see selling Trade Lead introductions that are unclear. Remember, your selling Trade Lead introduction is a major contributor toward the first impression buyers will have of you. It is important they fully understand what you sell, so use it to your advantage.

Structuring your selling Trade Lead introduction begins with using simple and clear paragraphs.

Paragraph 1 - Brief company introduction: In the beginning, a few suppliers will use a few sentences to briefly introduce their company, which aims to build more trust.

Paragraph2 - Detailed selling description: Then, many suppliers will provide key information about what they need, such as the name of the product, size, color, performance, price, quantity, terms of payment and so forth.

Paragrah3 - Cordial invitation: A lot of suppliers use the final paragraph of their Trade Lead introductions to reinforce their message and invite potential customers to contact them directly.


Go to My Office. In the "Manage Selling Leads" section, you can view the status of all of your selling leads at any time. They are classified under four sections:

  • "Editing Required" includes selling leads which have been rejected by GlobalSaler.com because they require editing.
  • "Approval Pending" includes selling leads that have been posted but have yet to be approved by GlobalSaler.com. The approval process usually takes 24 hours.
  • "Published" includes selling leads approved by and published on GlobalSaler.com.
  • "Expired" means these selling leads will be deleted two weeks after their expiration date.

Please note: You are able to edit/delete or re-post only selling leads currently located in "Requires Editing" or "Published" or "Expired" sections.
