Respond to inquiries

When a buyer is interested in your products or your company, he/she can send you a message using SourceBook's "Contact Seller Now" tool. A notification informing you of the buyer's interest will be sent to the email address you have on file with SourceBook. This notification will include the buyer's email address so you can respond to their inquiry directly.

It is important that you respond promptly to all inquiries you receive, as buyers will lose interest if too much time passes. You should also be thorough and make sure to answer all of the buyer's questions. This will leave a positive impression and encourage the buyer to place an order with you.

Respond to "Meet at ASD" requests

When a buyer is interested in meeting with your company at an upcoming ASD trade show, he/she can send you an appointment request using our "Meet Seller at ASD" tool.

A notification informing you of the buyer's interest will be sent to the email address you have on file with SourceBook. This notification will include the buyer's email address so you can respond to their request directly.

Even if you are not attending the next ASD show, you should respond promptly to the buyer's request and determine whether there is another time and place you can meet with the buyer. However, if you receive multiple show meeting requests, you should consider exhibiting at the next ASD show. Click here for more information.
