The Natures Of Markets



Every market has its own different nature. When it comes to UPS VRLA battery supplier, people have different kinds of perception in their minds. Buyers and suppliers from different markets know about VRLA battery through different names, it depends how much that market is educated about the product. Manufacturers have to understand every market differently according to the temperament.

In Pakistan many of the suppliers know VRLA batteries as dry batteries. In India people consider them as SMF (Sealed Maintainance fee) batteries. There is also a great demand for sealed scrap batteries in India. I got many inquiries from this country and felt them as potentials. Buyers show very much concern about the prices but whenever I try to take follow ups with them they are busy or many of them don’t receive the calls.

In some countries people consider General AGM battery as deep cycle battery. Some buyers give importance to price more rather than the quality of the product. I have one buyer from Saudi Arabia who want to buy one container of UPS AGM batteries. He planned to send the technical person of his company to China just to visit our factory and see the quality of our company’s products.

Current Arab Market Experience



In Arab market UPS VRLA battery supplier asks very low prices for every VRLA batteries. I got one inquiry from Lebanon and he needs AGM battery 12V-100Ah. I quoted him the price and he asked me to decrease more than I sent him our rock bottom prices but still he said its 20% high as compare to our market and I got surprised.

In Egypt there is a good demand of both Gel battery and AGM battery. Two inquiries I got but there are some troubles in Egypt so the deal is hanging and they can’t give their response until and unless the country situation gets back to normal. The situation of the country and its Governance can affect the business so badly which can turn into huge losses. Iranian market is also facing big troubles in trading because of the country and political situation. My sales manager asked me to stop targeting Iran.

There are many Arab people who spend a big chunk of their money while doing business with China. I also got some buyers from Saudi Arabia who asked me for UPS AGM batteries. I also faced the prices issue with the buyer from Oman.

Agm Battery Manufacturers


A UPS VRLA battery supplier has good market all over the world. I searched for so many suppliers and buyers through different campaigns like SEO (Search Engine Optimization), SEM (Search Engine marketing), Email marketing, social media marketing and many other effective tools. I found that most of the buyers prefer to buy batteries from China, but people from Arab and Middle East market are facing some difficulties in import because of the shipping cost and custom clearance issues. Many buyers are interested to order from China but they cant bear the huge cost of custom and shipping, and some of them don't have the license to import.

There is a huge demand of VRLA battery because they don’t required maintenance. These batteries are costly than normal lead acid batteries. There was a buyer i got from Pakistan named Khurram. He has his own shop of batteries. I told him about maintenance free batteries, he got attracted and scheduled a meeting at my office to discussed about some business.

In meeting I told him some technical information and the benefits of VRLA batteries. He asked me whether there is any distributor in Pakistan but unfortunately there is no one. He wanted to try some pieces of samples first, but he didn’t have import license. I contacted many different agents for import but for some sample pieces cost became too high, it almost doubled the batteries prices. He wanted to buy UPS AGM batteries but could not be able to import because of custom fees and clearing issues without having import license.

Promotion Of Batteries



Marketing and promotion tools are very important to attract buyers or customers. I saw one UPS VRLA battery supplier who promoted his product on different social media tools with the name of his company. I followed the same thing and created my company account on different social media tools with my company name on Facebook, twitter and LinkedIn. This gave me a big exposure to my company and I got some inquiries through Facebook.

There was one potential buyer from Pakistan, i got his contact from external source and added him on Facebook. He told me that he also deal in VRLA batteries and looking for a good manufacture. I told him about our company that we are the leading manufacturer of VRLA batteries which include AGM battery, Gel battery and deep cycle battery as well.

He discussed with me all the technical information and specifications of the product on Facebook. We had long discussions about developing our new business relationship.

He gave me a good hope to start business with my company soon. This was the current example which proved how much social media is powerful and an effective tool for promotional activities and business.

In electronic industry battery business is growing day by day, because whenever we buy anything powerful, we will definitely be required batteries for that which can be for car, ups, solar panels etc. UPS VRLA battery supplier is popular in the market because VRLA batteries can be used for so many applications and AGM technology is less expensive than gel or deep cycle. In this 21st century people are now moving towards maintenance free batteries which are known as VRLA Battery. These batteries are also considered as dry batteries in some markets.

Mostly customers are concerned about after sales service because they may face some defects or other technical issue in this kind of product. Sealed maintenance free batteries have made the customer life easier because they don’t have to be worry about the electrolyte levels of the battery. Maintenance free battery has longer life than ordinary battery which acid needs to be checked often.
