情况2:
买家咨询订单物流时效是否会受疫情影响?
沟通建议:
1、本身由于中国春节假期原因,大部分物流的时效性都会受到一定程度影响,但随着物流企业的逐步复工,春节长假后大多数地区的物流会逐渐恢复,个别地区如湖北省,物流恢复相对缓慢;
2、针对可能出现的物流延迟情况,要与物流服务商一起制定必要的方案,并及时告知买家;
3、目前中国相关政府部门和阿里巴巴平台都在密切关注本次疫情的发展,会积极推动各方一起合作,加快物流效率,有任何进展及时告知买家。阿里巴巴国际站已于北京时间2020年1月30日公布了2020年春节期间信用保障订单发货时间调整的公告,对相关物流政策作出调整。
 
情况3:
买家担心从中国运出的包裹或货品,会携带冠状肺炎病毒
沟通建议:
1、明确回复买家,到目前为止,没有证据表明包裹或货品会携带新冠肺炎病毒;
2、目前,世界卫生组织WHO和美国疾病预防控制中心CDC对此问题均有明确的回复,可将相关截图和资料出示给买家以打消其疑虑。其中WHO明确回复“从中国收取包裹是安全的”,以及“不建议对国际贸易进行限制”。而美国疾病预防控制中心(CDC)则在公告中称“没有证据表明冠状肺炎病毒的传播与进口商品有关,并且美国境内并无任何与进口商品有关的新冠肺炎病例”;
3、与买家强调目前中国政府及社会各界的防护及救治措施,让买家相信疫情必将逐步控制好转;也要告诉买家,目前中国相关政府部门和阿里巴巴平台都在密切关注本次疫情的发展,会积极推动各方一起合作,有任何进展及时告知买家。

情况4:
买家因为此次疫情,想取消来自中国的订单?
沟通建议:_
1、一般此类情况更多来自于恐慌心理。稳定买家的情绪仍是第一步沟通建议。可通过告知中国政府及社会各界的防护及救治措施(参考情况1),以及从包裹不会传播病毒(参考情况3),来降低买家担忧;
2、另外一类情况,是基于订单交付的顾虑。要主动及时与买家进行沟通,让买家知道商家和平台会采取必要的措施来保障订单的确定性(参考情况2),“信息透明和及时沟通”始终是维护好客户关系的第一要务;
3、如果产生纠纷,可以咨询相关法律人士,以通过平台规则和法律手段获得妥善的解决方案。

参考回复(请结合实际情况做调整):
