Avoid hundreds of emails with factories by doing this…

Another day, another factory visit by the team in China! Brands, don’t sleep on visiting your factories or having a representative do so. 

It’s one of the highest ROI investments you can make for several reasons: 

1.) Speed up your factory relationship building

1,000 emails still won’t equal the impact of an in-person visit for building rapport and trust. 

2.) Boost your negotiating power 

Factories are much more likely to make concessions on pricing and terms in person. 

3.) Improve your product quality 

Avoid dozens of emails and possible misunderstandings by blitzing through a ton of troubleshooting and questions in person. 

4.) Increase your speed to market

By better understanding the factory sampling and production process, you can set yourself up to more quickly get from ideation to production on new products. 

How about you, have you visited or had someone visit your factory recently?
