还有十几天，就到中秋节了，对外贸人来说，过节不仅是促单、维护老客户的好时机，还是复盘今年工作，让自己调整状态的好节点。
这篇文章就来一起看看，如何借势中秋/国庆节，让自己和客户之间的联络更上一层楼。
01
他们也过中秋节，节日祝福要送上
送礼送祝福，是和老客户升温感情，与新客户破冰的第一步。在我们国家过节的时候，其他国家也会过中秋节，尤其是东亚、东南亚国家，受中华传统影响的是不少的。
例如韩国的中秋节就非常隆重，和国内风俗一样，这一天在外工作的人都要回家与父母团圆，会出现返乡大潮。
在越南，不仅是中秋节还是儿童节。按照当地习俗，家长们会送给孩子们最喜爱的玩具和零食，其中灯笼必不可少。
新加坡的中秋节虽然不放假，但因为有很多华人的缘故，节日气氛非常浓厚。新加坡厦门公会等机构还会联合举办国民融合千人博饼庆中秋晚会。
还有以下这些国家也会过中秋节，如果你有该国客户，记得发送一下祝福。
日本、马来西亚、美国、加拿大、泰国、菲律宾、斯里兰卡

他们不过节，但要准备好放假通知
多数国外客户是不过中秋节的，放假之前记得做好万全准备。一般有3类通知，
1）通知客户我们的放假时间

3）提醒客户耐心等待包裹处理

给客户送完祝福，别忘了自己也过个节
生活总需要一点小惊喜，来提高一下幸福感。
对外贸人来说，就可能很需要一些惊喜来解脱自己。有人在群里分享到：这个中秋可能过的会很糟心，这半年以来行业都很差，看到其他同行接连拿下客户，心理是羡慕又嫉妒，一点客户资源都没有，没有什么好心情再去过中秋了。
今年形式的确不太好，但是保持良好的心态很重要，该放松的时候还需要放松一下的，调节一下心情，继续加油！每一位在岗辛勤工作的外贸人，都是最棒的！
