Job Responsibilities
1. Customer development and visits
Based on the target customer list provided by the company (gas stations, roadside restaurants, retail stores, mobile phone repair shops, schools, churches, clinics, farms, small engineering installers, etc.), develop daily/weekly visit plans and strictly implement them.

As a trust link between the company (China headquarters) and customers in Nigeria, Ghana, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and Tanzania, I use local language and culture to understand and resolve the distrust of long-distance procurement. I proactively initiate and assist in the implementation of "video factory exploration": when visiting customers, I connect to the Chinese factory through WhatsApp video on site, allowing customers to see the production line, product testing, and inventory situation in real time; When there is live or recorded video on the factory side, responsible for translating and explaining to customers, enhancing their confidence in the factory's strength, accurately conveying customer needs (power requirements, installation environment, budget, delivery time) to the domestic team, and following up on quotations and order execution
