| Resumption: "How to Select a Suitable B2B Platform for Small and Medium Enterprises-[b]"
Fourth, the B2B platform should have a reasonable pricing model. Take Alibaba as an example, it is very famous, but the cost is also much higher than any other B2B website. As a small and medium enterprise, the most important principle is to increase income and economize on expenditure. So, you should consider the cost performance of the whole B2B website. At present, ECVV introduces a new pricing model that is paying for performance. It is paid according to the inquiries acquired but not the service time like annual fee. Firstly, you prepay a certain amount of money so that you can look over some information of the inquiries but not all the contents. And then whether to check through the whole information of the inquiry depends on yourself. If you decide to see the whole content of one inquiry, it will deduct 30RMB from your prepaid money. You can check the inquiries until you spend all the prepaid money. According to this new kind of pricing model, you only need to pay for the effective inquiries you think and you can avoid the disturbance of the fake ones.
Fifth, once you choose a B2B platform, remember to persist to it. What you should keep in your mind is that you can gain a lot only if you adhere to it by seriously following the principles of B2B platform. And also your promotion in the B2B website tells the buyers that you are developing in a stable speed in that field. Especially nowadays, suffering the financial crisis and economic downtown, you should do such low-cost promotion online to get the limited orders and keep yourself far from the elimination.
3.What are the problems when choosing the B2B platform:
When selecting the suitable B2B platform, there are many problems. And now I want to talk about the basic two mistaken ideas you should avoid.
One is lack of planning. Many small and medium enterprises only pay attention to the short-term benefits. It is wrong. It should have a specific process, such as collecting and releasing the information, establishing the information platform and completing the supply chain management system etc.
The other is not to select the B2B platform blindly. Some small and medium enterprises only pursuit for the reputation of the B2B website without combining their actual development situation. There probably be some problems. It is likely that the reputed B2B platform already has had many members of your industry and dozens of pages of products. Given that you were a customer, will you click all the pages even tens of pages? Therefore, you can get nothing from the B2B platform where there are excessive suppliers and you can't list your products in the first several pages.
All in all, to choose a suitable B2B platform, small and medium enterprises should try your best to free yourselves from mistaken ideas, analyze the problems from the correct and rational perspectives, and combine the B2B website with your real development conditions.
