After a rainy comes a more refreshing day because the smell of rain always lifts your soul up to the skies. I was motivated and ready to deliver what my employer Tradekey promises to its customers and that is complete satisfaction and proper service. I logged in to my computer and started working for the client from the morning. And after all the dedication and in depth involvement in the process, the client's account have been sent for up-gradation to VIP membership.

Tradekey is a B2B portal for businesses to communicate among themselves and generate sales in huge amount. Their basic target is to attract small business and providing them the opportunity to expand. 

Tradekey has a versatile pool of businesses from road rolling equipment manufacturers to used construction machinery suppliers. However, my client is a supplier or a trader of used construction equipments. For every business you must know what are the main products you want to focus on. My client's main products include used construction heavy excavators loaders, and bulldozers.


There's a saying for every successful venture you have to start from the scratch and only then you can feel it’s true essence. I started working on this new client of used construction machinery. Prior experience in this field has made me an industry specialist. I have a strong command on dealing with different buyers and suppliers from road rollingequipment manufacturers to normal used equipments buyers. This industry has enhanced my knowledge and has given me full proficiency in all the operations of making a successful deal.

The beginning phase is 'creating the profile', containing all the authentic products and other information. Tradekey works with thousands and millions of buyers and suppliers. Since this Client is for VIP Membership, so I am personally taking care of their up gradation process. Adding different products in their profile like used constructionheavy excavators, used cranes, used wheel loaders etc. Then one major service involves providing Search Engine Optimization and Search Engine Marketing to the VIP member, which enriches the reach of Client's website and products. In this way they are able to target wider market and cater to larger audience.


It was a hot sunny day. I reached office and had a cup of tea just to relax myself. After a while just like I used to check my email, I saw an email from this Russian buyer. He emailed me about his interest in used cranes and told me that he had been in touch with different people from road rolling equipment manufacturers or used construction equipment suppliers. But somehow, he managed to find me and told me about his interest in used cranes.

He actually didn’t contact me out of the blue, there were some efforts involved from my end so all and all it was an aligned process. I previously got some information regarding the potential buyers and emailed the relevant people. Russian buyer was one of them. I told him about our company and that we deal in used construction equipments like used construction heavy excavators, used wheel loaders, used forklifts, used cranes, used road rollers and bulldozers. Then he showed interest in Kato cranes and we discussed the details and specs. He then gave me the details about his visit to China and we received him from his hotel and took him to the factory. There he inspected the machines and we successfully managed to meet him within the given time frame. However, the condition of the machine was not up to the mark according to him so he didn’t buy anything.
Using B2B portals for selling used construction equipments requires a lot of dedication, sincerity and detailed information from the supplier's end. The construction equipment suppliers are asked for different requirements i.e. model numbers, serial numbers, engine numbers, machine's specifications and pictures. Specially in the used construction industry, pictures are really important. Sometimes even if the buyer is not asking for the pictures, the suppliers still send them the pictures

The real problem lies in the authenticity of the machinery pictures. Like for example, road rolling equipment manufacturers giving the wrong pictures of machinery or showing the untrue condition while sharing them with the buyers. They basically do that to get buyer's full attention and interest in their product. But what they forget is that before buying such heavy investment machinery, a real buyer always comes and visit their factory. So in that case their false acts get caught.

A buyer from Russia was interested in used construction heavy excavators and was happy with the pictures and other specs' details. But when he visited the real site, he was devastated and found out that the pictures were not as the real machinery was. He shared it with me while he went through this experience.
