On Alibaba.com, thousands of buyers post RFQs (Request for Quotations) every day — searching for the right suppliers to fulfill their needs. For sellers, RFQs are one of the best ways to connect directly with serious, high-intent buyers. Managing these RFQs properly can help you increase sales, build relationships, and grow your business globally.
That’s where RFQ Management comes in — and with WebExcels, an official Global Channel Partner of Alibaba, sellers can make the most of every RFQ opportunity.
What is Alibaba RFQ Management?
RFQ Management is the process of handling buyer requests effectively on Alibaba. Buyers submit detailed requirements for products they want to purchase, and suppliers can respond with quotations that meet those needs.
Proper RFQ management ensures you:
Respond quickly and professionally
Provide accurate quotes
Increase your chance of winning deals
Every response is an opportunity to turn a lead into a loyal customer.
Why RFQs Are Important for Sellers
RFQs are not random messages — they come from verified buyers who are ready to place orders. Responding effectively helps you:
✅ Reach new international buyers
✅ Build direct B2B relationships
✅ Get orders faster without heavy advertising
✅ Improve your supplier activity score on Alibaba
Key Steps in RFQ Management
📩 1. Quick Response Time
Speed matters. Buyers often choose the first few suppliers who respond. WebExcels ensures your team replies within hours, increasing your chances of selection.
🧾 2. Accurate and Competitive Quotations
Your quotation should clearly include:
Product specifications
Price per unit
MOQ (Minimum Order Quantity)
Delivery time and payment terms
A clear and professional quote helps build buyer trust instantly.
🧠 3. Understanding Buyer Requirements
Before sending a quote, read the RFQ carefully. Tailor your offer to match the buyer’s exact needs — including product type, quantity, and customization options.
🧰 4. Follow-Up Strategy
Don’t stop after sending the first quote. Follow up politely to check if the buyer received your offer and is interested in further discussion.
