手把手教你写外贸涨价函，成功率极高的金句都给你整理好了！
附20份真实涨价函英文原件！
汇率和海运费近半年来居高不下，近期暴涨的原材料又让不少制造商本就微薄的利润在此缩水，稍一不慎，亏本做订单。
对于这部分厂商来说，涨价是无奈但无可避免的选择。
那么如何写一封让客户能接受的涨价函呢？以下有几个要点。
#几点原则01、不必抱歉
首先要明确的一点是：你向客户提涨价，但你并不是过错方。所以不要一上来就给客户道歉，或是把姿态放得很低，以至于后面有理也不占理，如果客户趁机提出一些不合理要求，你还要怎么拒绝？
涨价，只是一个客观事实，是需要合作双方去共同消化的问题，在商言商，你没有什么对不起客户的地方。
但是也要注意，虽然道理是这个道理，但你也别冷冰冰甩给客户一句：
“This letter is meant to inform you about the recent rise in prices of our products.”
除非你的产品真的不愁卖，不然还是需要注意语气，做到不卑不亢，有礼有节。
02、有理有据
你总不能说“因为众所周知的原因，我们要涨价了”，即使原因真的众所周知。
汇率涨了几个点，海运费涨了多少钱，产品涉及的主要原材料分别涨了多少？这些都要在邮件中有个概述，最好能用直观的图表来说明。
03、有的放矢
拿着上述证据，也不需要一股脑全部丢在邮件里。针对不同客户，可以从其最关注的地方入手来陈述理由。
比如比较重视价格的，那么就给他算账，把增加的成本一笔一笔算清楚；
更重视质量的，就要向他证明，为了维持原有的品质，涨价是必然的结果。
04、提醒客户你的价值
此外，也要提醒客户你能够提供的价值不仅仅在于产品的价格，客户也应看到你在其他方面的付出。
其他客户还需纳入考虑范围的因素包括：
产品质量的稳定性；
对市场的了解，公司的专业程度，比如新产品、爆款产品的迭代；
服务响应速度和周到程度；
出现问题时的解决能力；
对于交期的掌控能力，甚至可以优先生产该客户订单；
合作的时间长短、对彼此的了解等，毕竟沟通成本也是成本。
05、一步到位
涨价需要一步到位，不要今天通知客户涨3%，看客户没有强烈抵触，没过几天你又给客户涨2%。这种涨法，脾气再好的客户都会愤怒。
如果担心成本继续攀升，不妨在报价单中列明报价的有效时限，或者约定一些条款，比如人民币再升值x个点，报价即失效，等。
06、留出缓冲
涨价生效的时间最好能够长一点，给客户留一些缓冲和消化的时间。
07、适时逼单
想想那些奢侈品店在涨价前大门口排了多少人！你不妨也试试看，是不是能够利用涨价的deadline促成一些订单。
#实战金句
以上这些要点，可以根据客户的属性而自由组合，通过一封或者多封邮件让客户接受涨价这一现实。一些好用的金句整理如下：
Step 1

“甩锅”的一种语法
用主动语态传递积极消息，用被动语态传递消极消息。
简单来说，就是好事是我做的，坏事是被逼的。比如以下两个例句，请注意分辨哪个会让客户心里更舒服一些：
×We will be increasing our prices…
√Our prices will be increasing…

简述涨价原因

例2
海运费上涨
The global shortage of shipping containers has led to a sharp rise in freight costs from Asia to both Europe and the US.
