Fischer Elektronik, a German brand offering high-quality connectors, heat sinks, and aluminum enclosures, is favored by the market for its advanced manufacturing and superior components. The similar brand Fischer Connectors (Switzerland) has become an industry benchmark due to its stringent testing conditions, reliability design, and Industry 4.0 intelligent manufacturing, with its products widely used in extreme environments.
International brands usually adopt a fixed pricing strategy: prices are in US dollars and based on EXW terms (excluding shipping, taxes, etc.), and price adjustments can be made before the rise in manufacturing costs. In addition, Fischer Connectors offers volume wholesale pricing, such as more competitive bulk quotes through authorized distributors.
Negotiation Techniques for Domestic Connectors Prices1. Suppliers are more willing to offer discounts to customers with long-term cooperation potential. Before starting negotiations, it is advisable to understand the advantages of the other party and express the willingness for long-term cooperation, which will help establish a trust basis for the subsequent negotiations.
Data-driven negotiation
Prepare market background information, such as the pricing range of Fischer industrial connectors under similar specifications, to use as a negotiation basis and make the argument more persuasive.
The initial bid is slightly below the target price.
Avoid directly proposing the lowest price, but leave room for negotiation, making suppliers feel that they are making a deal in equal reciprocity.
4. Leveraged sizing and subsequent opportunities
Bulk purchasing often results in lower unit prices. Committing to subsequent orders or larger purchase volumes usually qualifies for price discounts.
5. Overall terms negotiation
When it is difficult to lower prices, optimization can be sought in aspects such as delivery methods, payment cycles (such as proposing NET 60 instead of NET 30), warranty periods, and MOQ (minimum order quantity).
Maintain negotiation room
Know when to stop, understand when to retreat or end negotiations, show that you have other options, in order to gain more autonomy.
Price Negotiation Case Reference (Domestic Substitution)Assuming the customer's goal is to purchase domestic alternatives to the Fischer Core series connectors:
Prepare market information: The average price for Fischer Core connectors of the same specification (such as IP68 sealing, metal housing) on the market is $20-25 each.
2. Initial Price Increase: Start negotiations with the supplier at a price of $18.
Emphasize bulk demand: Commit to purchasing over 500 pieces, and you can request a price reduction to the $15 range.
4. Discuss payment terms: If the delivery period is stable, a NET 60 days payment term can be proposed to alleviate cash flow.
5. If unable to reduce the price: strive for payment of logistics fees or additional accessories as a gift, such as a dust cover or sample testing support.
6. Agreement: The order was finalized at a price of $16 per piece, with (NET 60, free shipping).
A successful domestic connector price negotiation should be based on data, taking into account the relationship between quantity and profit, clause optimization, and long-term cooperation potential. By referring to the pricing system of international brands such as Fischer and combining it with its own procurement strategy, it is possible to maximize cost-effectiveness while ensuring quality.
