How to maintain good relationship with business suppliers

[IB D]

You would have to build a relationship with the supplier beyond him just giving you supplies for your business. That would increase the trust level and the bond would be enhanced.

Without having good suppliers to always give us our supply at all times it might be a huge problem. So how can we maintain good relationship with our supporters to enable us get stock all the time?

I think that one of the best ways to maintain a good relationship with your suppliers is always make sure that you pay them all the time and never owe them. This is because it will make it very difficult for them to supply you when there is scarcity in the market if you owe them a lot.

Indeed, I always pay my supplier when the goods arrive at my shop and they get the money instantly. And because I never have a debt to them, I always get it fast when I need to

Yes, I really agree with you, sometimes there are people who waste the trust of suppliers by using the money for their goods, so that when the goods are finished but the money is not there, they ignore debts, they don't take good care of their goods, and so on.

Usually, it is the supplier who thanks the store for example for having their products chosen and delivered. They also give big calendars during Christmas and free t-shirts printed with their company name.

I agree with you. When we still have the family business, we used to have suppliers that usually give some freebies and invite to have free lunch or dinner in a restaurant. It is how we can build a good rapport to them in terms of business.

You can maintain good relationship with suppliers by telling people about their products and services. With that, you would get into their good records.

In my opinion, the best way to maintain good relations with suppliers is that we must always pay on time, and never delay tomorrow to make payments and communicate via Whatsapps.

Nobody likes to have their payments been delayed which is something that is synonymous with business suppliers as well.
