You may not be receiving responses from suppliers because of the reasons below:
1) Your message is not detailed and/or specific enough, so the supplier may not know what you want
2) Check the Sent Box of your Message Center to check if your inquiry has been sent successfully. If your message cannot be found in your Sent Box, we recommend that you try re-sending your inquiry
You can also find the right suppliers by posting Buying Leads with clear product pictures and detailed product descriptions. You should include your Company Profile on Alibaba.com to build trust.
To contact and chat with suppliers in real time, use our instant messenger tool TradeManager. You can also contact suppliers directly by phone and fax. To view a supplier’s Contact Details, click “View Contact Details” on their Product Detail page.
